This article guides Kibu Admins on user management, explaining what “Members” and “Admins” are, and the concept of Staff Groups.

What are Users?

In Kibu, a user is a human being who is either receiving or providing services. A user is classified as a Member or an Admin:

<aside> 💡 Tip: The majority of your team will likely have the “Staff” role. Those who have the added responsibility of managing “behind-the-scenes” activities, like user management, billing, and settings, should be granted the “Admin” role.
