Understanding account roles

Admin role

The admin role is perfect for agency hosts/admins. If you set up your agency’s account, you’ll automatically be designated as an admin, but you can always add more admins to the account. 

The admin role comes with special responsibilities and capabilities that the agent role will not have available to them, such as the ability to invite new agents and to add payout details. 

Agent role

The agent role is the ideal role for agents/advisors who will be making bookings on behalf of their clients. Agents will not be able to add payout details or invite new agents, but they will still be able to view their commission payouts and reports.

Agents/advisors will have to be invited by their admins in order to join the account. If you are an agent, please see this guide on how to join your agency’s account.
