What is a team account?

  • Updated

Team Accounts are available to all creators as of August 5, 2025. This feature lets you run your Patreon page with the support of others by inviting teammates to help manage your work and connect with fans.

Team Roles

Team Lead

As the account owner, you are automatically the Team Lead. This role is tied to the email address used to create your creator account. Only one Team Lead can exist per account:

As Team Lead, you can:

  • Invite and remove teammates
  • Access earnings, payout settings, and financial data
  • Manage all page and account settings

You can invite as many teammates as you need.

Teammate

Teammates have their own logins, separate from the Team Lead. Once invited, they can help you run your page and engage with fans. Teammates can access:

Commenting and liking behavior:

  • When teammates comment or like on their team’s page, they comment/like as the creator
  • When teammates comment/like on any other page, they comment/like as themselves

How to add a teammate

  1. Log in to patreon.com
