Adding a new user

You can give as many people as you need access to your GuestRevu account simply by adding them as new users.

Note: only the account owner or users with administrative permissions are able to update other users' permissions or add/remove users. You can see who the account owner is or who has access to make changes to users by looking for the various icons when in your user section. 

To become an account owner you can ask the current owner to give you ownership by clicking Actions > Make owner
