Overview My Account

The My Account section allows you to manage the administration of your Hike account.

Lets look at the sections on screen.

MY ACCOUNT

As you will see, there are significant changes that anyone with Admin access can make to your Hike account. In prior versions of Hike, we used to have a SuperAdmin role, but this was restrictive for businesses with multiple directors, so we have given more control to our clients.

We strongly suggest you take this into consideration when deciding which staff will have Cashier, Manager, and Admin access.
