Can I transfer a Vercel-created storage to another team?
I'm trying to move my vercel-created Neon DB to a neon-native team, but the transfer button is disabled.

Unfortunately, transfering a Vercel-created Neon DB (called a "project" in Neon) is not yet supported. https://neon.tech/docs/manage/orgs-project-transfer#requirements

so I'll need to create a project on the non-vercel account and migrate data there?
can I restore from a branch in another project? or do we have to pg dump and restore?

Yes. Here's an option that might work for you that's fairly easy:
- Grab the connection string from your Vercel-manged database (non-pooled connection string)
- Go the projects page in the Neon Console for your non-Vercel Neon account: https://console.neon.tech/app/projects
- Click the Import database button (top right)
- This will open the Import Data Assistant
- Enter your Vercel database connection string there
- Create a Neon project via that UI (Step 2) - It gives you the pg_dump and pg_restore commands to run from your terminal. Just open a terminal and run each command. Otherwise, you can follow these manual instructions: https://neon.tech/docs/import/migrate-from-postgres
