Overview

Understand user roles and permissions in Cobo Portal, allowing for precise control over member access and responsibilities.

User roles consist of predefined sets of rules that enable you to assign specific permissions to designated members within your organization. Cobo offers a series of preset user roles.

You need to configure at least two Admins to ensure cross-verification and mutual backup. Other roles can be assigned appropriately based on actual needs. It is not recommended to assign multiple roles to the same member.

The Cobo Portal provides two types of organizations to support different business use cases: Custody Organization and Payment Organization.

• Custody Organization is designed for asset custody scenarios and support comprehensive asset management and operational capabilities.
• Payment Organization is designed for stablecoin payment scenarios and support stablecoin collection, payouts, and withdrawals.

Please note that role permissions vary across organization types. Permissions marked with * are available only in Custody Organization. Permissions marked with △ are available only in Payment Organization. Permissions without any marker are common permissions and apply to all organization types.

Cobo Portal user roles

Role capability overview

The following summary highlights the typical purpose of each default role. It is not a complete permission list; use the detailed table below as the permission reference.

Role	Typical capability
Viewer	Views organization information, wallet information, balances, addresses, and transaction records.
Developer	A read-only role for the Developer Console. Members can view API keys, view and export API logs, access the Developer Console dashboard, and view webhook and callback URLs/events.
Spender	Initiates wallet operations such as withdrawals and transfers for wallets in scope.
Approver	Reviews and approves transactions and other requests that require approval.
Staker	Performs staking-related actions for supported assets and wallets.
Operator	Handles day-to-day operational tasks, including selected organization, wallet, and developer operations.
Compliance Officer	Reviews compliance-related information such as transaction categories and risk-control records.
Manager	Manages organization members, roles, policies, wallets, and developer settings for operational administration.
Admin	Has broad administrative permissions across organization management, wallet operations, risk controls, and developer settings.

Assign Spender narrowly. Spender can initiate withdrawals and transfers for wallets in scope, so separate spending duties from approval duties whenever your workflow requires independent review.

The Developer role does not support wallet scope. Its permissions apply to all wallets.

Authorization model

Area	Authorization checks
Wallet-targeted Custody and WaaS operations, such as wallet actions and transaction/withdraw	Access requires the required role permission, and the target wallet must be allowed by Wallet Scope.
Organization, role, team, developer, and non-wallet-targeted settings	Access requires the required role permission. Wallet Scope does not decide access to these settings.

How to read the permissions table

Role details are shown as Resource + Operation entries, such as wallet/create and transaction/withdraw. A checkmark means the role includes that operation for the listed resource. Permissions marked with * are available only in Custody Organization. Permissions marked with △ are available only in Payment Organization.
