As an Account Owner or Project Manager, you can give as many new users as you like access to join your account by sending them an invitation by email, all free of charge. For more information on each user role type, read our documentation on Understanding User Roles in Smartling.

Step 1: Invite them to Smartling
- Go to Team > Users
- Click Add User
- Click on the role you wish to grant the new user
- Select one or more projects to which you wish to grant the new user access
- Enter the new user's email
- Click Confirm to invite the new user, or Cancel to exit
Step 2: Give them access to projects

- Go to Team > Users
- Click the user tile
- Under Details, click the Projects field to see a full list of your projects
- Select the project name or type the project name and then select from the list
