How do I manage access to my Business Account?

Hey bunqers 🌈,

Need to share access to your bunq Business account with your employees in a fast and simple way? We’re here to make that easy for you.

You can share various levels of access with your Director or Co-founder, your employees, or even your accountant. Decide between sharing:

Full Access: Your invitee will help manage the account, giving them the same access level as you. Together you can stay on top of payments, accounts, and everything your business needs.
Make Payments access: Your invitee will get access to your chosen Business Bank Accounts, giving them the ability to easily make payments from those accounts.
View-Only access: Your invitee will get access to your chosen Business Bank Accounts, giving them the ability to view the payments made from those accounts.
