Add and manage users on your Brevo account

In this article, we will explain how to add users to your Brevo account and customize their permissions.

Whether you are a marketing agency managing multiple clients, a company with large teams, or a business owner requiring separate access for developers working on integrations, you can collaborate with your team by inviting them to access your Brevo account with different permissions and without sharing your credentials.

Good to know

  • To learn more about user permissions and permission levels, check our dedicated article User permissions and permission levels in Brevo.
  • Only owners of a Brevo account or users with the User management permission can add users and customize their permissions.

Limits on the number of users

The number of users you can invite to your Brevo account depends on the plan you're on:

  • On the Free/Starter Marketing platform and Free Conversations plans, you are limited to only 1 user. You can add another user to your account, but you will only be able to give them access to general and Sales Platform features.
  • On the Business Marketing platform, Pro Conversations, and Sales Platform plans, you can add up to 10 users to your account.
  • On the BrevoPlus plan, you can add more than 10 users to your account.

Each additional user comes with an additional cost that varies based on the permissions given.

🔎 Overview of the Users page

The Users page lets you see who has been invited to access your Brevo account and allows you to customize their permissions.

    • None: The user doesn't have access to any feature of the plan.
