Roles and Permissions
Understand the specific roles and permissions that your account offers
Overview
Understanding the specific roles within PayMongo's User Management helps in assigning and defining the appropriate access for your team members.
Key Roles
Account Owner
Account Owner SpecificationThere can only be ONE Account Owner.
This is the individual who initially created the PayMongo account. The Account Owner has full, all-access permissions to every feature and setting in the Dashboard, including the ability to manage other users, change bank account details, and access all sensitive information.
Team Member
Any new user who is invited and granted access to the company's PayMongo account by the Account Owner. A Team Member's permissions are strictly defined by the role group they are assigned to.
Permissions
A specific set of functions or actions that an Account Owner (or an authorized assignee with "Manage users" permission) can grant or deny to a Team Member.
Available Permissions
