The Admanager Business Account (former Agency Login) is a tool on XING that allows multiple people to post, view and manage ads.

There are two common cases where it makes sense to use the Business Account (former Agency Login):  

1. Placing ads on behalf of other companies (customers) as an agency.

• Budgets can be assigned to specific customers and it can be ensured that these budgets are only used for this customer. This enables separate invoicing per customer.

2. As a company, several employees can place ads in the name of the company and view the ads posted by their colleagues.

• Budgets can be assigned to specific events/projects, in order to maintain control what the budget is used for (so that these budgets are only used for these projects).
