Budgetly offers three distinct roles—Admin, User, and Accountant—each with different levels of access and responsibilities. Here's how they compare.
Admin
Admins have full access and control over the account. Typically assigned to finance team members like the CFO or accountant, they can create budgets, order cards, invite users, view all transactions, download statements, and sync data with accounting software.
User
Users are cardholders who can view their own details, cards, and budgets. They can make transactions, categorise them, and upload receipts, but they can’t see other users’ activity or modify budget limits.
Accountant
Accountants have specialised access to view and edit all transactions, download statements, and sync with Xero. They don’t need a card and cannot order one, setting them apart from regular users.
Note: We recommend that any accountants who do not need Admin access be assigned to this role instead.
