Team management
Your Team tab is where you decide who gets access to your whop and what permissions they have.
How to add team members to your whop
Your team member will automatically be sent an invitation email. When they accept, they’ll show up in your team table with their new permissions.
You can see all your pending invites on the Invites tab next to Members.
Start small. For security purposes, we recommend granting someone the lowest-permissioned role that lets them do their job. You can always expand their access with a higher role later if needed.
Roles and permissions overview
There are five pre-set roles you can assign to your team members, plus the ability to create your own custom roles:

- Invite and manage all team members, including other Owners
- Transfer ownership
- Manage crypto wallets
The Owner role is best for founders, co-founders, CTOs, or finance/legal leads who need complete control.
Operations
Everything an Owner can do, except:
- No access to Payouts — cannot create or manage payout accounts, initiate withdrawals, or transfer funds

- View company balance (required for ad spend)
The Advertiser role is best for marketing specialists or agencies who only need to manage your ad campaigns.
Custom roles
You can also create fully custom roles with any combination of permissions. Go to Team and click Manage roles to create a new custom role and toggle individual permission groups on or off.
Complete permissions breakdown
Some actions your team can perform (like deleting messages or removing checkout links) cannot be undone. Start with the lowest-permissioned role that lets someone do their job.
How to change team member roles
You can update anyone’s role at any time to give them more or less access.
The change happens right away, and they’ll have their new permissions immediately.
How to remove team members
They’ll immediately lose access to your whop and will need to be reinvited if you want to add them back to the team.
