      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.

      AccountDefinitionProduct 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 AccountA 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-AccountA sub-account is an individually provisioned Wasabi storage account.
      Standalone AccountA standalone account is contracted directly with Wasabi, not using WACM.
