Permission Levels & Explanation

Permission

Explanation 

Owner

Each profile can have multiple owners, but only one primary owner. Owners and primary owners have the same capabilities, but a primary owner can’t remove themselves from a profile until they transfer their primary ownership to another user. Note: only owners can add or remove users.

Manager

Managers have most of the capabilities of an owner, but don’t have the more sensitive capabilities, like removing the profile or managing users.

Site Manager

Site managers have most of the capabilities of a manager, but can’t edit all business information. A site manager can request to upgrade to a manager or owner of a verified listing. The owner can approve or deny the request.
