WACM Accounts
It is important to understand the hierarchy of WACM accounts and access to Wasabi products. The following table begins with the most inclusive (governing) account level.
| Account | Definition | Product Access |
|---|---|---|
| Control Account | A control account is a Wasabi partner account that manages channel accounts and/or sub-accounts. It is a contract with Wasabi for a single product and a single payment method. Wasabi Account Governance (AG) is used to manage multiple control accounts. | |
| Channel Account | A channel account is a single account with one or more sub-accounts. It is attached to a single control account and enables only the provisioning of sub-accounts. (Note that all sub-account usage rolls up to the parent control account. | |
| Sub-Account | A sub-account is an individually provisioned Wasabi storage account. |
|
| Standalone Account | A standalone account is contracted directly with Wasabi, not using WACM. |
