    Zoom should be able to add anyone as a co-host regardless of having an account or not as long as you enter a valid email address. You may need to enable the co-host feature on your account https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/206330935-Enabling-and-adding-a-co-host.

    While I am not positive, I believe 9. Keep in mind just because they are a user, it does not mean they are licensed and get to enjoy the features of a licensed user. That is why it says "Basic" under the type which is essentially the same as a free account.

    Are you trying to assign them as an Alternative Host? That could explain why you are not able to do so. Alternative hosts must be a licensed user on the same account as you. 

    Good thing is that you can always assign them to be co-host during the live meeting.

    Hi, I just tried to pass on host to another at the start of the meeting.  When I hover over participants name and click on MORE it only gives me the option of PIN and CHAT.  The Co-Host tab is switched on in settings and had no problems in a previous meeting. What am I missing ?

    You have to do it through the participant's panel not by clicking on an attendee.
