User and test accounts

When you apply for a membership account for the BlackBerry World vendor portal, the details that you provide are used to create a primary user account with an Admin role. The Admin role gives a user account all of the available administrative privileges. You cannot disable the primary user account.

In addition to your primary account, you can create additional user accounts. You can assign different administrative roles to the user accounts to define what tasks each user can perform in the vendor portal. For example, if your organization has a senior developer whom you want to manage the membership account and products, and a junior developer whom you want to manage products only, you can create a user account with the Admin role for the senior developer, and a user account with the Product Submit/Modify role for the junior developer. After logging into the vendor portal, click Manage User Accounts to add, modify, or disable a user account.

When you make a product available for download on BlackBerry World, you can simulate and test the purchase and download process using a sandbox (testing) user account. You are not charged for any purchases that you make with a sandbox user account.

You can associate a maximum of ten sandbox user accounts (each with a unique ID) with your membership account.

After logging onto the vendor portal, click Sandbox to add, modify, or disable a sandbox (tester) user account.
