As part of completing, there's a transfer phase. Usually we move everything to their in house/managed servers unless we built it there. In that case, we'd make sure that they disable logins and lock down our accesses.
Regarding OP's question about license and accounts, we'd usually build things with their accesses and keys. It's easier that way.
Regarding small clients, if we took them on there was probably something else in the relationship so we might have kept hosting it for them.

Good to hear that. It's what we've done so far (transitioning from our own keys, etc. as the project gets closer to finished). It has sometimes been difficult with non-technical clients to, e.g., walk them through the process of getting their own certificates.
When we're integrating with a client who has their own engineering staff, it's pretty much a non-issue.
