We understand that managing a business alone is no easy feat. As your growth partner, we’d be happy to help you with that! 🌱

Introducing the new User Management feature which is easily accessible on your PayMongo dashboard. You can now invite your teammates to your company account and assign roles to make your workflow more efficient.

To start, let’s first define some important terms

  • 🧑‍💻 Account Owner – The person who created the PayMongo account. It is also an all-access account wherein certain settings can still be changed (ex: Bank Account details)

  • 🙋‍♂️ Team member – Any new user who is granted access by the account owner. Permissions would depend on which role group they’re granted access to.

  • 📝 Permission – A set of functions that an account owner or authorized assignee can grant to a new assignee.

An overview of Permissions

Before inviting a team member, it's best to lay out the permissions needed for your business’ internal workflow. Here’s a table summary of permissions that you can assign to your teammate.
