Roles & permissions

TickTad uses four roles to keep a household organised without over-permissioning anyone.

Role	Can do
Owner	Everything — create and manage tasks, expenses, helpers, invites and settings.
Admin	Manage tasks, expenses and helpers, but not change ownership.
Member	Create and complete tasks, add notes and lists, and record expenses.
Helper	See their assigned tasks, mark them done, and request leave.

The two-step completion flow

Roles matter most in tasks. A helper marks a task done; an owner or admin then confirms it. This two-step flow means work is never just self-reported — it’s verified. See Two-step completion.

Manager-only features

Some features are limited to owners and admins:

• Expenses management and budgets.
• Helper profile, contract, leave and salary.
• Inbox (the universal capture tray).

Members and helpers still contribute — they create and complete tasks, add notes and lists, and request leave — they just don’t manage the money or the household itself.
