Need to add someone as a billing admin or transfer ownership of the account? Want to make sure your account is only being billed for the channels you approve? This article will go into detail on how to edit your billing admins, transfer ownership, how to view and download invoices to review what you’re being billed for, and how you can either cover all the channels that are made on your workspace, or only ones you approve.

Please note: Plans on the enterprise level will not be able to access the same options on this page. If you are on an enterprise plan, and need to adjust your billing, please contact support@donut.ai

What if the Account Admin is no longer here?

If your Account Admin is no longer with your company, you have the ability to assign ownership to someone else! Below are a couple of different ways that can happen.

  • If there were additional Admins added by the previous Owner, these Admins will have the ability to either claim ownership of the account or assign to someone else.

  • If there were no additional Admins added by the previous Owner, members meeting certain criteria will have the ability to claim ownership. That criteria is listed below

    • Accounts with Onboarding Plans: Anyone who has been granted onboarding access can claim ownership.

    • All other accounts: Anyone who has created a channel program or been granted editing access to a restricted channel program.

Who can view and download invoices?

Only account holders and billing admins can view and download invoices.

Account holders have the ability to add and manage billing admins on their account. Once a billing admin is added, they will then have the access to change the billing information on file. You can add as many billing admins as you like! Billing admins can also can transfer ownership over to someone else from the dashboard.

  2. Click "Billing" in the left navigation menu

  3. Scroll down to the bottom and you will see a check box that says "Automatically assign all new Donut channels created by anyone on my team to my account"

    - If the box is unchecked, it means other Slack users in your Workspace can not create Donut channels on your service account.

Please note: If there are multiple billing accounts, you can only be an editor for one
