What is a Dynadot sub account?

A sub account is a separate Dynadot account that can access another Dynadot account. This is useful for large businesses or web developers. Now, owners can allow others to manage their domains through a range of capabilities. To enable this feature, the first step would require a different/new Dynadot account. This account will have a different account-holder, username, account info, etc.

Owners can select between three different access levels:
1. Domain Only - Enables the sub account to manage domains.
2. Auction Bids - Enables the sub account to bid on auction in Dynadot Aftermarket on your behalf
3. Domain and Auction bids - grants access to both domain and auction bids.

NOTE: Payment and billing are hidden from all access levels and remain the owner's responsibility.
