Network Store Catalogue
Sharing a store with other organisations
Letting other organisations buy from — or help run — your store, and what each of the three access levels can do.
Last updated September 2, 2026
A store belongs to the organisation that created it. Sharing it lets other organisations reach it, which is how one store serves a whole group of brands or regions instead of each running their own.
Sharing is managed in Settings, under Connected Network Store Child Organisations.
The three access levels
| Level | Can do | Give it to |
|---|---|---|
| Owner | Everything, including settings and deleting the store. | Your own organisation. Rarely anyone else. |
| Manager | Run it day to day — products, orders, subscriptions, receivables — but not the store settings. | A brand or region that manages its own catalogue and customers. |
| Buyer | Shop the storefront and see their own orders. No admin screens at all. | Everyone who only needs to buy. This is the common case. |
One store or several
| Situation | Do this |
|---|---|
| Same catalogue, same prices, shared events | One store shared with everyone as Buyer. |
| Different catalogues or currencies | A store each. Currency is set per store and cannot sensibly be mixed. |
| Brands that must not see each other's trading | A store each, or Buyer access only. |
| A brand that runs its own catalogue but shares your events | Their own store, plus Buyer access to yours for the shared items. |
Product audiences work inside a shared store
Sharing decides who can reach the store. A product's audience decides who sees that product once inside. Together they let one store carry both network-wide items and things only one brand is offered.
Remember that audience hides a product outright rather than showing it as unavailable — so a shared organisation asking why they cannot find something is usually an audience question, not an access one.
Removing access
Removing an organisation stops them reaching the store. It does not undo their history — their past orders, outstanding balances and active subscriptions all remain, and subscriptions keep billing.
