Teams

Pro for teams: buying seats and adding people.

On this page

Pro for teams gives each person who presents their own seat with everything in Pro, and the person who buys it owns the team and manages the seats.

How seats work

  • One seat is one person. Each person signs in with their own email and can activate up to 3 devices.
  • You buy at least 3 seats, billed yearly. You can add seats later, and seats cost less from the 10th on. See the pricing page for the current prices.
  • The owner takes a seat too. The Team card on your account shows how many seats are in use, like “3 of 5 seats in use”.
  • Everyone gets Pro. Up to 6 windows, the badge optional and custom backgrounds and overlays. See Plans.
  • Fewer seats than people. If the team ends up with fewer seats than people, the owner and then the people who joined first keep their seats. Everyone else is marked “No seat” in the Team card and is on Free until you add seats or remove someone. Passes already on their devices work until they run out, but can’t be renewed.

For the owner: invite people

The person who buys is the owner.

  1. Open your account

    Go to curtains.app/account and sign in. You can get there from Studio with Manage account on the Account page.

  2. Invite by email

    In the Team card, under People, type an email address into Invite someone by email and click Send invite. The person gets an email with a link to sign in and join your team. The invite is open for 30 days.

  3. Wait for them to join

    Invites that haven’t been accepted show in the list. Click Cancel invite to withdraw one.

If you invite your own address, you’re added at once.

Inviting needs a free seat. To get more, click Manage billing and add seats there. Added seats are charged right away. Seats you remove there come off at your next renewal, so everyone keeps their seat until then. See Billing and renewals.

Remove someone

In the Team card, click Remove next to a person and confirm “Remove from the team?”. They lose their seat, and you can give it to someone else.

Their passes keep working until they run out, because Curtains checks passes without going online. Automatic renewal is refused for them, so after that they are on Free.

For a team member: join

  1. Open the invite

    Open the invite email and follow its link. Sign in with the address the invite was sent to. You sign in with an email link, so there is no password.

  2. Join the team

    On your account page, the Team invitations card lists the invite. Click Join. Signing in on its own never puts you on a team.

    Joining gives you a seat on the team’s plan. The owner can see your email address and can remove you.

  3. Activate your Macs

    Follow Activate a device on each Mac you present from. Studio’s Account page then shows Pro for teams and the team’s name.

You see your own devices, up to three. The team owner manages billing and seats, so you don’t see Manage billing.
