# Understanding Accounts, Organizations, and Storefronts

Checklick's different kinds of accounts can be confusing, especially if you are trying to manage more than one organization or storefront. Below is an explanation of how **accounts**, **organizations**, **storefronts** and **Stripe accounts** all work together within Checklick.

 

**One Person Managing One Organization**

The simplest example is this: **one person** managing **one organization.**

Each person using Checklick has their own **personal Checklick account.** This is the account you use to log into Checklick. 

If you are a manager of an organization, it's important to understand that your **personal** account is different from your **organization's** account. Your personal account has a username and password. Your organization account *does not* have a username and password (you log in using your personal account's username and password).

 

**One Person Managing Multiple Organizations**

You can manage **multiple organizations** under a **single checklick account.**

This means you don't need to create multiple personal profiles if you need multiple organizations. 

To act as the manager (ie log in as) either of your organizations, just log in using your personal profile's username and password. You'll be able to switch from one organization to another without logging out. Just click the **user context menu** in the top right of your screen, and select the organization you want to act under.

For help creating multiple organizations, see [this help article](https://checklick.zendesk.com/hc/en-ca/articles/236001147-Managing-Multiple-Organizations).

 

**One Person Managing One Organization, with One Storefront**

If your organization is using Storefront, you'll have four things: a personal profile, an organization, a storefront and a Stripe account (for processing credit cards).

Note that each Checklick organization **may only have *one* storefront**. However, you can create as many different organizations as you wish (see the final example below), and under each organization, have a different storefront.

 

**One Person Managing Multiple Organizations and Multiple Storefronts**

It is possible to have multiple storefronts under a single manager. The best way to do this is to create a separate organization for each storefront you need, and then create a storefront for each organization.

It's important to note that Checklick will **not let you use the same Stripe account** for multiple storefronts.

You will need to log into Stripe directly and create multiple Stripe accounts under your email address. Need help with this process? We have a [guide for creating multiple storefronts here](https://help.checklick.com/articles/creating-multiple-storefronts?hsLang=en), or else you can contact support, and we'll walk you through the setup process.
