Multi-user login
Multi-user login allows you to grant access to other users for your Twitter Ads account, helping you to manage campaigns effectively and securely. You may grant different levels of permissions to multiple users, who will be able to then access your Twitter Ads account while logged into their own personal @handle.
This feature can reduce risk of malicious or erroneous mishaps with your business/brand @handles by granting access to more of your team without sharing the password to your main account(s). In addition, it can reduce friction for users who manage ads for more than one ads account on Twitter.
You must be logged into an account administrator @handle in order to grant other users access to the ads account.
There are four levels of access that you can grant to other users, each with a different set of permissions. Which level you'll grant them will depend on what you want the other users to be able to do within your ads account.
You grant access to others by adding their @handle, and choosing what level of access you wish to give them.
From there, when that user is logged into their @handle, they can go to ads.twitter.com and enter your ads account and perform the actions permitted to the access level you've granted them.
These access levels are defined as follows:
Account administrator: User has full access to ads.twitter.com, including the ability to create new account administrators and ad managers, edit account access for administrators and ad managers, make changes to advertiser campaigns and view performance data. Account administrators cannot post organic tweets but have the ability to create promoted-only (aka limited delivery) Tweets. Please note that Account Administrators have access to credit card and billing information.
- Ad manager: User can access ads.twitter.com and make changes to campaigns and view performance data. Ad managers cannot grant users access to the ads account. Ad managers cannot post organic tweets but have the ability to create promoted-only (aka limited delivery) Tweets.
- Creative manager: User can access ads.twitter.com to modify creatives and view previews, but does not have access to create or modify campaigns.
Campaign analyst: User can access ads.twitter.com and can view performance data, but cannot create campaigns or make changes to campaigns. Campaign analysts cannot grant users access to the ads account. Campaign analysts cannot post organic or promoted-only Tweets.
- Organic analyst: User can access analytics.twitter.com and view analytics, but does not have access to view (paid) campaigns.
Note: Account administrators and ad managers do not have the ability to compose promoted-only Tweets by default. You must grant this permission to their @handle in addition. Campaign analyts and organic analysts can never be granted the ability to compose promoted-only Tweets.

How do I use multi-user login to charge different campaigns to different credit cards?
Arrow down iconUnfortunatley it is not possible to run multiple campaigns with different credit cards in a single ads account. Each Twitter Ads account has a single default funding source.
In order to use multiple credit cards for multiple campaigns, each campaign must be created in the Ads account with the default funding source you'd like to pay for it.
Please submit a ticket here with your @username to request creation of a new Ads account. That way, you can run different campaigns in each Ads account with the funding source you'd like to fund it.

What is the compose promoted-only Tweets permission?
Arrow down iconThe 'Can compose promoted-only Tweet permission' allows a user logged into your ads account to create promoted-only Tweets in the Creatives < Tweets tab. Only Account administrators can grant this permission, and it can only be granted to other account administrators and ads managers. You can never grant compose promoted-only Tweet permission to campaign analysts or organic analysts.
Promoted-only Tweets are only shown to users targeted in your ads campaigns. Unless specifically targeted, Promoted-only Tweets do not show on your followers' timelines. They're made within your Ads Account and when seen by a targeted user, they act like normal Tweets and can receive replies, be shared, Retweeted, liked, etc. Learn more about promoted-only Tweets.
To grant permission to compose promoted-only Tweets, make sure the permission level displays "Can compose promotable Tweets" below the user on the Edit access to account page.
