## **Account Type Details**

There are seven different default account types, all with varying permissions

### **Affiliate**

Specifies that the account is a standard affiliate. This account does not have any additional permissions. 

More information regarding what the Affiliate sees can be found on the [Affiliate Area ](https://docs.toomuchmedia.com/affiliate-area/affiliate-area)page. 

### **Account Rep**

An account representative can be assigned to manage affiliates. This comes with several unique permissions, all of which can be viewed on the [Account Representative ](https://docs.toomuchmedia.com/nats-admin/affiliates/further-reading/account-representative)page.

### **Customer Service Rep**

A Customer Service Rep is a special affiliate who is responsible for managing customer services of your membership sites.

### **Site Partner**

Site partners typically share revenues and get extra statistics due to their status.

More information on setting up a Site Partner can be found on the [Site Partner](https://docs.toomuchmedia.com/nats-admin/sites/site-management/site-overview/site-partners) page. 

### **Sub Admin**

A Sub Admin has limited administrative access and can only view and perform actions on certain admin areas in NATS.

### **TMM Admin**

TMM Admins have full viewing access in NATS, but are limited in the changes they can make. They can only log in from IP addresses specified in the *TMM\_ADMIN\_IPS* configuration option. This can be found in the Configuration tab in the "Security" section.

### **Admin**

Admins have full administrative access in NATS, and can view and edit whatever they choose. You can also restrict admin access to certain IPs through the "Security" section in the Configuration tab.
