Understand the three Team member roles — Owner, Admin, and Member — and which permissions can be assigned to each.
Account user roles
Every Account has three member roles: Owner, Admin, and Member. Permissions for the Admin and Member roles can be adjusted per member, or in bulk using Member Groups — see How do I invite and manage Team Members in Monta Hub?
| Role | Account Owner | Account Admin | Member |
| Who is this? | The user who owns the Account. Their wallet and charge point permissions can be adjusted, but they can always manage new Account members. | A user who can be given managerial permissions — such as editing charge points, managing members, and managing the Account Wallet. | The user with the least administrative control. They can be given access to specific charge points and the right to pay with the Account Wallet. |
| Recommended for: | The owner of the charge point site. | Anyone who needs to manage the Account Wallet, set up charge points, export data, or invite members. | Anyone who needs to use the Account's charge points or pay with the Account Wallet. |
