# Roles and permissions
|
|
|
|
There are several possible roles in a Zulip organization.
|
|
|
|
* **Organization Owner**: Can manage users, public streams,
|
|
organization settings, and billing.
|
|
|
|
* **Organization Administrator**: Can manage users, public streams,
|
|
organization settings, and billing. Cannot create or demote
|
|
organization owners.
|
|
|
|
* **Member**: Has access to all public streams. This is the default role for
|
|
most users.
|
|
|
|
* **Guest**: Can only access streams they've been added to. Cannot create
|
|
new streams or invite other users.
|
|
|
|
For details of the access control model, see [Stream
|
|
permissions](/help/stream-permissions). You can decide what role to
|
|
invite a user as when you [send them an
|
|
invitation](/help/invite-new-users#send-invitations).
|
|
|
|
Organization owners can do anything an organization administrator can
|
|
do. For brevity, we may sometimes refer to "organization
|
|
administrators" being able to do something; unless stated explicitly,
|
|
this means "organization owners and administrators" can do that thing.
|
|
|
|
## Billing and guests
|
|
|
|
Guests are only available on Zulip on-premise and on paid plans for Zulip
|
|
Cloud. There are two kinds of guest for billing purposes:
|
|
|
|
* **Multi-stream guest**: Has been added to multiple streams. These guests
|
|
are billed the same as regular members.
|
|
|
|
* **Single-stream guest**: Has been added to only a single stream. If you
|
|
have M paying users, you get 5M free single-stream guests. Similarly, if
|
|
you have G single-stream guests, you'll get charged for G/5 users.
|
|
|
|
Example: You have 8 members, 2 multi-stream guests, and 50 single-stream
|
|
guests. You'll get charged for 10 users. Let's say you have 8 members, 2
|
|
multi-stream guests, and 51 single-stream guests. You'll get charged for
|
|
11 users.
|
|
|
|
Single-stream guests are a new feature, and their permissions are likely
|
|
to change over time. For example, single-stream guests can currently see
|
|
the list of members in the organization, but we may remove that ability in
|
|
the future.
