Incard offers four team roles, each with different levels of access and permissions. Here's a summary of what each role can do.
Owner
The Owner has full control over the account. This role cannot be restricted and there must always be at least one Owner. Only the Owner can:
Transfer ownership to another Admin
Close the company account
The Owner also has full access to all accounts, payments, cards, team management, analytics, and settings.
Admin
Admins have full operational control — the same access as the Owner, with two exceptions: they cannot transfer ownership or close the company account. Admin permissions are fixed and not configurable.
Admins can:
View all accounts, balances, and transactions
Move money, manage recipients, and manage cards
Invite and remove team members
Edit user roles and permissions
Access analytics, billing, rewards, and all settings
Bookkeeper
The Bookkeeper role is designed for accounting-focused team members. Bookkeepers are assigned access to specific accounts and can only work within those accounts.
What Bookkeepers can do:
View transactions and balances on assigned accounts
Download statements for assigned accounts
Manage categories and accounting codes
Manage accounting integrations
What Bookkeepers cannot do:
Move or send money
Manage cards or recipients
Submit or approve expenses
Invite or remove team members
Access the Team page, billing, or security settings
Custom
The Custom role lets you build a tailored set of permissions for a team member. You select which accounts they can access and choose exactly which capabilities to enable.
Configurable permissions include: move money, manage recipients, manage cards, approve payments, submit expenses, access rewards, analytics, accounting, and more.
Custom role users cannot edit roles, invite or remove users, manage security, transfer ownership, or close the company.
