Bouncy's team system uses three roles to control what each person can do. This article explains each role and its permissions.
Role Overview
Role | Badge Color | Description |
Owner | Purple | Full control over the team and account. One per team. |
Admin | Blue | Elevated permissions for team management and link operations. |
Member | Green | Standard access for everyday link creation and management. |
Detailed Permission Breakdown
Owner (Purple Badge)
The Owner is the person who created the team (or the account holder). There is exactly one Owner per team, and this role cannot be shared.
Owners can:
Invite and remove any team member
Change any member's role (promote to Admin or demote to Member)
View and manage all links created by any team member
Access all team settings and configurations
View the full activity log
Manage billing and subscription
Delete the team
Admin (Blue Badge)
Admins are trusted team members with elevated permissions. You can have multiple Admins.
Admins can:
Invite new team members
Remove Members (but not other Admins or the Owner)
View and manage links
Create, edit, and delete links
View the activity log
Admins cannot:
Remove other Admins or the Owner
Change other members' roles
Manage billing or subscription settings
Delete the team
Member (Green Badge)
Members have standard access for everyday work. This is the default role for new invites.
Members can:
Create new links (deeplinks, app links, websites)
Edit and manage links
View analytics
Members cannot:
Invite or remove team members
Change anyone's role
Access team management settings
View the activity log (depending on configuration)
Manage billing
Choosing the Right Role
Scenario | Recommended Role |
Business partner who needs full team control | Admin |
Marketing manager who invites and manages the team | Admin |
Content creator who just creates and manages links | Member |
Virtual assistant with limited responsibilities | Member |
Agency employee working on client links | Member |
Trusted team lead who manages other members | Admin |
How Roles Appear in the Team Table
The members table on the Team page displays each person's role as a colored badge:
Owner — purple badge
Admin — blue badge
Member — green badge
This makes it easy to see at a glance who has what level of access.
Changing Roles
Owners can change any member's role at any time. See Changing a Team Member's Role for step-by-step instructions.
Important Notes
One Owner only — each team has exactly one Owner. This cannot be changed through the UI.
Start conservatively — assign the Member role by default and only promote to Admin when needed
Admins can invite — be aware that Admins can invite new members, so only give this role to people you trust
Role changes are instant — when you change someone's role, their permissions update immediately
