# Roles & Permissions

> What each role can see and do.

Roles decide what a teammate can do inside an organization. Each organization tracks roles separately — someone can be an admin of one workspace and a member of another.

## The four roles

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Admin" icon="crown">
    Full access. Can manage billing, team, integrations, and delete the organization.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Manager" icon="briefcase">
    Run day-to-day operations — programs, affiliates, outreach, payouts — but can't touch billing or remove admins.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Member" icon="user">
    Operational access — use the app, manage affiliates and content — without sensitive settings.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Affiliate" icon="handshake">
    A partner account, not a team seat. Affiliates sign in to their own portal, not the main app.
  </Card>

## Changing a role

Admins can change any teammate's role under **Settings → Team**. Open the actions menu on a row, pick a new role, and the change takes effect immediately.

## Tips

* Use **Manager** liberally — most non-admin teammates need this level to get real work done.
* Reserve **Admin** for people who actually need Billing and Team control. Two admins is usually enough; three is comfortable.
* Never share a single login between teammates. Create individual seats so audit trails and notifications make sense.
