Admin Controls, Budgets & Permissions

Manage your Team Store with precision, flexibility, and accountability.

Updated this week

Stitchi’s Team Stores aren’t just for placing orders, they’re built to support real operational workflows across departments, budgets, and user roles. Whether you're outfitting a sales team, running an onboarding kit program, or managing regional swag budgets, our admin tools give you the control you need without the manual overhead.

Role-Based Permissions

Assign access and capabilities based on team roles. Stitchi’s permission structure helps you stay organized, delegate tasks, and protect sensitive data.

Role

Permissions

Shopper

Browse products, place orders (within limits), access order history

Manager

Place orders for a team, approve purchase requests, allocate budgets

Finance/Admin

View reporting, manage budgets, configure PO settings

Super Admin

Full access to store settings, users, reporting, and permissions

Common use cases:

  • Give department heads control over their team’s spend

  • Allow HR to send onboarding kits

  • Let marketing approve promotional product requests

Budgeting Tools

Whether you’re offering monthly swag stipends or managing event-based spend, Stitchi’s budgeting tools help you stay in control without requiring spreadsheets or manual approvals.

User or Group-Based Budgets

Set spend limits per user, department, or team. You define the budget—Stitchi enforces it automatically at checkout.

Annual or Rolling Allowances

Budgets can reset monthly, quarterly, or annually. Perfect for recurring stipends or yearly employee merch credits.

Purchase Order Checkout

For departments that operate on internal POs, Stitchi enables invoice-based billing. Approvers can be assigned to review and release orders before fulfillment.

Budget Rollover & Expiration

Allow unused balances to roll over—or expire on a specific date to encourage timely use.

Visibility Settings

Choose whether users can see their budget balance, receive reminders, or track their own usage history.

Approval Workflows

Some orders need a second set of eyes—and Stitchi makes that simple.

  • Route orders over a certain dollar threshold to a manager

  • Require approval for specific product categories (e.g. tech, custom items)

  • Allow team leads to approve or decline with one click

All approvers receive real-time email notifications and dashboard alerts.

Product & Payment Visibility Controls

Not all users should see every SKU—or every checkout option. With Stitchi, you can control who sees what.

Product-Level Visibility

  • Limit certain items to specific departments, roles, or regions

  • Show onboarding kits only to new hires

  • Hide seasonal or unreleased products until they’re ready to launch

Payment Option Controls

  • Enable POs for managers only

  • Restrict credit card checkout for certain teams

  • Assign custom promo codes to select user groups

Admin Dashboard & Reporting

Your team store isn’t a black box. Admins have access to real-time reporting dashboards that include:

  • Order history and fulfillment status

  • Budget usage by team, department, or user

  • Inventory tracking for stocked items

  • Downloadable reports (CSV, Excel, PDF)

Perfect for syncing with your finance or procurement systems.

Getting Started

Our team will configure your permissions, budgets, and approval flows during onboarding—based on your goals. You can request changes anytime via your account manager or Stitchi support.

Common Admin Use Cases

  • Equip new hires with $100 merch credits

  • Give sales leaders power to order for their teams

  • Let marketing restrict campaign products until launch

  • Set a $500/month budget for each department

  • Route IT-related swag orders to a designated approver
