Billing permissions

Last updated May 4, 2026 Access to billing features in the Cloudflare dashboard depends on the role assigned to each account member. This page maps each billing action to the required role.

Note

The Billing role can view and pay but cannot change subscriptions or plans. To both manage subscriptions and handle payments, a user needs the Super Administrator role.

Assign the Billing role

  1. Log in to the Cloudflare dashboard ↗︎.
  2. Select your account.
  3. Go to Manage Account > Members.
  4. Select Invite to add a new member, or select an existing member to edit their role.
  5. Assign the Billing role.

For more detail on account roles, refer to Manage account members.

API access for billing

  2. Select Create Token.
  3. Use the Custom token template.
  4. Under Permissions, select Account > Billing > Read (or Edit).
