How to Add or Remove Additional Contacts / Sub-Accounts

Last updated on Apr 30, 2025

Adding sub-accounts (also called contacts) allows other users β€” such as team members, developers, or accountants β€” to access specific areas of your Eco Web Hosting account without sharing your own login details.

You can control what each contact can see or do, and whether they receive notifications.


πŸ” Step 1: Log in to Your Client Area

Start by logging in at: https://my.ecowebhosting.co.uk


βž• Step 2: Add a New Contact / Sub-Account

  1. Click your name in the top-right corner

  2. Select Contacts/Sub-Accounts

  3. Click Add New Contact


πŸ“ Step 3: Fill in the Contact Details

  • Full name and email address (this becomes their login)

  • Phone number (optional)

To allow the contact to log in:

  • Tick Activate Sub-Account

  • Set a password (they can change it later)


πŸ”§ Step 4: Set Permissions

Tick the boxes for what this sub-account can access:

  • View & pay invoices

  • Open & reply to support tickets

  • Access domains

  • Manage products/services

  • Modify account details

You can also choose which types of emails they’ll receive (e.g. invoices, domain renewals, support replies).


πŸ—‘οΈ To Remove a Sub-Account

  1. Return to Contacts/Sub-Accounts

  2. Use the dropdown to select an existing contact

  3. Click Delete Contact at the bottom

πŸ”’ You cannot delete the main account contact β€” only additional ones.
