An organization holds everything for one brand: its connected channels, inbox, knowledge base, automations, team, and plan. Agencies usually create one organization per client.

Each organization has its own subscription and is billed separately. You can invite as many teammates as you like.

## Create or switch organizations

Click your organization's logo near the top of the left menu, just under the Brandwise logo. The menu lists every organization you belong to. Pick one to switch to it.

To add a new one, choose **Create organization**, enter an **Organization name**, and optionally a website, a logo, and teammates' emails (one per line). Then click **Continue**.

## Rename or change the logo

Go to **Settings > General**, update **Name** or **Logo**, and click **Save changes**. You need the **Manage organization** permission.

## Invite a teammate

1. Go to **Settings > Members**.
2. Click **Invite teammate**.
3. Enter their email address.
4. Switch on the permissions they should have, or click **Grant all**.
5. Click **Send invite**.

They get an email with a link to join. Until they accept, they show as **Invited**. Only the owner and people with **Manage organization** can invite, remove, or change teammates.

## Permissions

View and manage are separate switches, so turn on both if someone should see and act on a channel.

| Permission | What it allows |
|---|---|
| **View comments & DMs** | Open the comment and DM inboxes |
| **Manage comments & DMs** | Reply, hide, assign and resolve |
| **View email inbox** | Open email threads |
| **Manage email inbox** | Reply, snooze, archive and assign |
| **View live chat inbox** | Open live chat conversations |
| **Manage live chat inbox** | Reply, assign and close conversations |
| **Manage connected pages** | Connect social accounts and change how they're handled |
| **Manage integrations** | Connect email, live chat and Shopify |
| **Manage organization** | Rename the organization, and invite or remove members |
| **Manage billing** | Change the plan, payment method and credit top-ups |
| **Process Shopify refunds** | Issue refunds against a connected store (shown only when Shopify is connected) |

To change someone's permissions later, click the key icon on their row. Changes save as you switch them. To remove someone, click **...** and choose **Remove from organization**.

## Transfer ownership

Each organization has one owner, who can do everything. To hand it over, open the new owner's permissions (key icon) and click **Transfer** under **Ownership**. You stay in the organization but lose owner privileges, and only the new owner can transfer it back.
