How to Add a Sub Account

Last Update 5 months ago

Each AutoMailer user has the ability to add in at least one sub account. Sub accounts, or member accounts, allow main account holders to grant access to other individuals for setting up and monitoring email campaigns.


What is the use of sub accounts?


Sub accounts help segregate your data for easier tracking. Sub accounts have their own designated dashboard featuring data only for the specified campaigns it has been granted access to.


Who can be granted sub accounts?


Sub accounts can be created for individuals within your organization, specific departments or various clients.


Permissions and restrictions of a sub account:


   • Each sub account holder has their own login credentials, different from the credentials

     of the main account holder.

   • They cannot connect an email address.

   • They can send out email campaigns.

   • They can receive inbox email replies.

   • The main account holder can choose and grant specific permissions.


Prerequisites for adding a sub account:


   1. An email account must be connected to AutoMailer on your main account.
