• As soon as you have received the administrator role, you can independently "Create Users" for your team members. Where you can then assign them one of the 15 free Pro licenses.
• Note that you cannot create a user with an email that is currently being used for an Outdooractive account. (one email = one account)
  1. Create a user with a different email for that member.
  2. The member must accept your invitation by email.
  3. If members already have an Outdooractive Community account, an alternative e-mail address of the user/member must be used to create the Outdooractive Business account. If necessary, this can then be merged with the community account so that there is only one account (via the "Merge account" tab in the user settings). An adjustment to the email address of the business account can be made via the "Change email" tab. If you have an existing community subscription, please contact our support. 
•  If you have used all of your licenses and require more please contact support (Once logged into Mybusiness the bottom left under "Help")

• That you give the free Pro licenses including the map licenses only to bona fide members of the organization.
• That Outdooractive is allowed to mention your organization in its marketing materials, on its website and is allowed to place the logo of your SAR team on the Search and Rescue landing page of the Outdooractive website.
• Outdooractive reserves the right to reject license requests without giving reasons, especially if it believes that licenses are being granted to non-members or that the program is being abused in any way.
