# What different ‘Administrator Types’ are available and what do they mean?

We have three different ‘Administrator Types’ available from Owner to Read-only access, here’s what they all mean.

There are three different types of administrators available on Bookteq: Owner, User & Read-only.

Each administrator has their own set of permissions that allow them to carry out certain actions on the Bookteq platform.

Let’s take a look at each of them and see what they mean!

####   
**Owners**

With **Owner access**, you have complete control over your venue account, from adding new administrators, venues and bookings, to managing your Bookteq billing and Stripe payments.

Owners can add and assign administrator roles, change permissions, and even create additional Owners if more than one is required to manage your venues. From your Bookteq overview scroll down to **Account** and select **Administrators** from the dropdown menu. You can then either add a new administrator or select an existing administrator you want to give Owner status to.

#### **Users**

**User access** allows you to create, view and amend bookings, as well as add new customers, spaces and facilities for the venue(s) assigned to them by the account **Owner**.

They are also able to add payment requests, manage invoices and send payment links for the venue(s) via the **Bookings** tab.

User access doesn’t allow you to create new ‘Administrators' or edit permissions, nor can they add or amend venue information.

#### **Read-only**

With **Read-only access**, you can share your calendar with additional administrators in your workspace easily and securely. Read-only administrators can view bookings through the **Calendar** and **Bookings** tab but not edit, move or delete any booking information. They are also unable to send payment links or invoices.
