Roles explained
What Admin, Affiliate, Reader, and Ticket Seller can each do.
Every member of your organisation has a role that decides what they can see and do. There are four, each suited to a different kind of teammate.
Admin
Full access. Admins can do everything — create and edit raffles, run draws, manage payouts and bank accounts, invite and manage teammates, and change organisation settings. Give this to the people genuinely running your fundraising.
Affiliate
Creates and runs raffles on behalf of your organisation, without full access to the organisation's settings or finances. Affiliates are typically individuals or businesses fundraising for you. They can build raffles and manage their own raffles; depending on your settings, their raffles may need an admin's approval before going live (see Affiliate raffle review).
This is the role behind Fundraising for an organisation.
Reader
Read-only access. Readers can view the organisation and its raffles — including Payouts and Compliance — but can't change anything. Good for a treasurer, a board member, or anyone who needs visibility for oversight without the ability to edit.
Ticket Seller
Booth-only. A Ticket Seller can sign in and sell tickets at the Ticket Booth and manage the orders they place — and nothing else. No raffle settings, no organisation settings, no payouts. When they sign in, they go straight to the booth. Ideal for event volunteers and casual staff. See the Ticket Booth section.

RaffleLink's roles can grow as the product does. If you see a role here that the table above doesn't mention, the in-product description (shown when you pick a role while inviting) is always the source of truth for what it can do.
