Admin Access Changes After Full Business Approval

Learn why an onboarding Admin’s access is reduced after approval and how to restore it via the Super Admin.

Once your business account is fully approved, the person who created the account may have limited access. This is a security measure to ensure that only the business owner can control sensitive actions, such as transactions and team management.

When does this happen?

This applies if:

  • The account was created by someone who is not a business owner or director (e.g., an assistant or staff member), and

  • A business owner (director) was invited to complete verification and become the Super Admin

What changes after approval?

The original account creator will have limited access and can only:

  • View account balance

  • View transaction history

What access is removed?

The user will no longer be able to:

  • Perform transactions

  • Access account limits

  • Manage teammates or permissions

Why does this happen?

This helps protect your business by ensuring that only authorised owners can:

  • Move money

  • Manage account settings and team access

How can access be restored?

Only the Super Admin (business owner) can restore access by:

  1. Going to the Teams page

  2. Updating the user’s role and permissions

Changes will take effect immediately after the update.

Note: This does not affect all Admins. It only applies to the original account creator in the scenario described above.
