*How do I add new users and what access rights can I assign to them?*

***

# Adding users

You can add new users by clicking on **Settings** --> **Users.**

Don’t see **Users** in the dropdown? Then you do not have the rights to add users. Please contact your account administrator or support.
:::

Next, click the **Add user** button.

In the next screen, you will define the email address and the access level.

After that, the new user will receive an invitation to access the account.

:::hint{type="info"}
If the email address is already known as a Ticketmatic user, the user will receive an invitation to gain access and will need to log in.

For a new user, they will first need to set up their name and login details.

Once the user is active, the invitation link will no longer work. From that moment, the user can log in via [https://apps.ticketmatic.com/](https://apps.ticketmatic.com/).
:::

# Password policy&#x20;

Ticketmatic requires each user to use a strong password. Ticketmatic will score each password using following rules:

- a lower case character a-z is 1 point&#x20;
- a digit or upper case character is 2 points&#x20;
- a symbol is 3 points

:::hint{type="warning"}
&#x20;A password should at least get a score of 16 to be considered strong.

Profile intended for external users (booking agencies, producers, promoters, or other partners) with whom the sales status of specific events is shared.

When they log in, they only see the sales dashboard for the events for which they have been specifically granted access.

This user can view the current total status of sold, reserved, and blocked tickets in figures and graphs. The user cannot access personal data of orders of ticket holders and cannot scan tickets with the app.&#x20;
