Why You Should Set Up a “Company User”

Create a shared “Company User” to centralize points, milestone rewards, and manage feeds or spaces with consistent access.

Updated over 5 months ago

🧼 TL;DR:

  • Use a Company User account for org-wide tasks

  • Centralizes milestone rewards and shoutouts

  • Helps manage feeds, spaces, and permissions cleanly


👤 What’s a “Company User”?

A Company User is a shared Uniteam account used to:

  • Send milestone or birthday rewards

  • Create and post in key feeds (like company announcements)

  • Help manage spaces, especially across multiple regions or departments

Think of it like a virtual “Head Office”—not tied to one person, but acting on behalf of the company.


🎁 Centralize Recognition and Rewards

Without a Company User, Admins have to send milestone rewards (like birthdays or anniversaries) from their own personal points balance.

With a Company User, you can:

  • Load points into that account

  • Use it to send milestone and shoutout rewards across the org

  • Keep your personal Admin points separate from company-wide gifting


🗂️ Manage Feeds and Spaces

When creating a new company-wide feed or space, you may want it controlled by a consistent admin account—not tied to someone who might leave or change roles.

Company Users can:

  • Set up and manage org-wide Feeds or Spaces

  • Be added as an Admin across multiple areas

  • Help future-proof access and control


🔐 How to Set It Up

  1. Create a new user profile with your company’s name (e.g. @AcmeCo or Company Admin)

  2. Assign it the Admin role

  3. Load it with points if you plan to use it for milestone rewards

  4. Use it to create and manage your most critical Feeds and Spaces


💡 Pro Tip:

Use a neutral email (like HQ@yourcompany.com) for login so multiple HQ staff can access it if needed. Keep your systems smooth—even when people change.
