Retailers are the stores you buy from. Retailer accounts represent individual logins within a store — useful when you run more than one Best Buy or Amazon account.
Retailers
The Retailers page lists every store available when creating an order. Common retailers are pre-populated. You can also add custom ones.
Add a custom retailer
- Go to Retailers → New retailer.
- Enter the retailer name and optional website.
- Save.
Custom retailers get a badge so you can tell them apart from the built-in list.
Retailer accounts
A retailer account is a specific login at a retailer. If you run three Best Buy accounts (your main, P2, and a parent), add three retailer accounts under Best Buy.
Why retailer accounts matter
- Order limits — each retailer account counts orders separately
- Account health — track which logins are getting flagged or shut down
- Reporting — see spend and earnings per login, not just per retailer
- Multi-owner setups — link a retailer account to a specific account owner
Add a retailer account
- Open the retailer’s detail page.
- Click New retailer account.
- Enter a label (e.g., “Best Buy — me”, “Best Buy — P2”), associated account owner, and notes (e.g., “elite plus member”).
- Save.
When creating an order, you’ll pick the retailer first, then the specific retailer account.
Use a consistent naming pattern like “Retailer — Owner” so the dropdown stays scannable as you add accounts.
Account owners vs retailer accounts
These are easy to confuse:
| Account owner | Retailer account |
|---|
| Represents | A person (you, P2, family) | A login at a specific store |
| Lives at | Account owners page | Under a retailer’s detail page |
| Used for | Cards, orders, reporting by person | Multi-login orders at one retailer |
A single account owner can have many retailer accounts — for example, you might own logins at Best Buy, Amazon, and Target.
