Guest access is a feature for publishers working in teams.
It can help you grant your subordinates access to the specific sections of the account they may need.
For example, you can allow a developer to access Postback URL, an accountant to ordering payment and adding payment details, and support engineers to the processing of lost orders.
Benefits:
- You don't have to share your account password with other users. Every employee will have a guest account with a different password.
- You can change the sections available to the guest account whenever you need, or delete a guest account to cancel guest access to your account.
How to create guest access
To provide guest rights to an employee:
1. In Settings, go to Guest accounts or click Add account in the upper right-hand corner.

An invitation will be sent to this address.
- Check the box Enable two-factor authentication if you want to allow the guest to enable two-factor authentication in their account (see this guide).

Example of use
Many publishers involve editors in publishing of advertising posts. With guest access, the work of the editors and tracking their effectiveness comes down to several simple steps.
1. Create a guest account for the editor and give him a unique ID, so that you can distinguish him from the others, e.g. "editor_smith".
2. The editor will install Admitad Extension for Chrome and enter their identifier in the SubID field.
3. Done! Now the editor can generate affiliate links to the products right on the store's website, and all these links will be already marked with SubID. If you want to know which of the editors works, just go to the SubID statistics.
