As the store owner you can provide your staff members (fulfillment staff, theme designer, developer, etc) or your partner with their personal login account to access your Netcash Shop admin panel. Each member you invite will have have their own restricted permissions and individual credentials to log in to the Netcash Shop admin, where they can add products, process orders, run marketing campaigns, etc., according to their task. They will not be able to access your financial information or invite additional staff members.
The Business plan includes 2 staff accounts. You can have as many staff accounts as you’d like on the Unlimited plan.
Available staff permissions
Permissions control specific store admin sections and features a staff member can access. Netcash Shop store owners can grant one or multiple permissions based on the role of a particular staff in the store management team. For example, if you hire a person to update stock levels, you can limit their access to the Catalog section.

Are you creating Netcash Shop stores for your friends or clients and want to manage them all in one place? Check out our Partner Program for more details.
To add a new staff account
1. From your Netcash Shop admin, go to My Profile → Staff Accounts.
2. Click Add staff member:
3. Enter the email address of the staff member you would like to invite:
-
- Click Send Invite.
An email invitation to create an account and join your team will be sent to the new staff member. The invitation letter has the subject “You have been invited to manage [your store name]”.
When your staff member receives the email invitation to open a staff account for your Netcash Shop store, they have to:
- Click the Join store button in the email to accept the invitation.
- After that staff members have a choice to:
- Join your store team with their existing Netcash Shop account, if they happen to have it and want to use its login as your staff member login.
- Create a new profile to access your store (Netcash Shop account registration is free).
Upon signing in to their account, the staff member will access the Netcash Shop admin and can help set up and manage the store according to their permissions. For example, a marketing expert hired to run promotions will be able to view and change settings in the Marketing section.
After a staff member accepts the invitation to manage the store and follows the special link to sign in to their account for the first time, they can then use Netcash Shop’s regular login page to access the store. If the member is managing several stores with the same staff login, they will each time be asked to choose the store they want to manage upon login.
For store owners, staff members who accepted the invitation to manage the store will be listed in the Current staff members section on the Staff Accounts page.
Staff members can edit their own profile details, such as update password or their login email. If they change their email, the store owner will get a notification.
Editing staff permissions
The store owner can edit permissions for any staff member at any time. This includes granting additional permissions and revoking the ones a staff member already has. After permissions are updated, the staff member will get an email notifying them about their new access scope.
To edit staff permissions:
