User Management: Your Authorized Affiliate Portal
User Management is where you will see and access all your User’s accounts.
When the User account is paid you will see their name and “Access” button to the right of their name in black. Selecting the “Access” button gives you access to manage their Projector Account.
When the User account has been created, but not paid, you will see their name and “Unpaid” button to the right of their name in red. You will not have any access to manage their Projector Account until the account is paid and a credit card on file.
It is important to remember that when you are in your user’s Projector Account any uploading & management will be in their account until you select “Exit”. Once you select “Exit” it will bring you back to your Projector Content Dashboard.
