Is there a way to transfer your games to a different account?

Not that I'm aware of... But it depends... Are you wanting to move games from an account that you own to another account that you own? Or are you trying to move them to a friend's account? If it's for a friend then no, you cannot do that. However, if it's for another account you own, there might be a way to work around it such as just updating the current account to fit what you want or, if you lost the account, by attempting to recover it.

 

These are two posts I copied from EA_Stephan and EA_Kristi that likely answer your question:

 

"No, it's not possible to transfer games between accounts owned by different players. 

 

Each games comes with a single playing license for one account only. 

 

If your friend has already registered the game on her Origin account then she'll be able to download and install the game from Origin directly without using the disks." - EA_Stephan

"Generally games cannot be transferred from one account to another. If you remember any details an Advisor might be able to help you track down your old account. To contact an Advisor please follow the steps below:

4. Select 'Next' at the bottom right
5. Select your platform and then 'Next' again
6. Select topic from the drop down and type in a short description of your issue.
7. Select a contact option. Please note that available contact options do depend on your country settings and time of day." - EA_Kristi
