How to handle user credentials in Ctrl

When a new Ctrl account or bookmaker is created, the first user automatically becomes the account owner. The owner holds full access rights and may choose to share their credentials with others at their own discretion.

To support collaboration, additional users can be created within Ctrl, ensuring that each individual has their own secure set of credentials rather than relying on shared access.

Prerequisites

Before handling or creating user credentials in Ctrl, make sure you have:

  • An active Ctrl account with owner-level access.

  • Permission to manage users and credentials.

  • A secure method for storing and sharing credentials (e.g., environment variables, password manager, or secrets manager).

Getting Started

When your account is created, the account owner will receive an email with the initial login credentials.

  • First login to Integration: You’ll be prompted to change your password. This change only applies to the Integration environment.

  • First login to Production: Use the original credentials from the email again. After logging in for the first time, it is recommended to change your Production password.

There are two ways of creating and managing users in Ctrl:

  1. Integration Environment – used for testing and non-production purposes.

  2. Production Environment – used for live operations and real customer data.

User Roles

When creating a new user in Ctrl, you must assign them a role. Each role has a specific set of permissions tailored to their responsibilities.

Junior Trader

Entry-level role for assisting in trading operations. Can monitor, follow events, and perform basic actions but with limited control over odds or system-wide settings.

Trader

Standard trading role with authority to control odds, monitor markets, and manage live events in day-to-day operations.

Senior Trader

Experienced role with full trading rights. Can publish/suspend events, adjust odds in manual/semi-automated modes, and manage trading strategies.

Head of Trading

Leadership role with both trading rights and administrative powers (e.g., creating users, assigning roles, configuring templates, and managing bookmakers).

Junior Trader (Live Booker)

Specialized junior role focused only on live booking of matches. Useful for delegating live operations without granting broader trading permissions.

Technical

Technical support/developer role. Provides system configuration, integration testing, cache/template management, and troubleshooting. Typically does not manage trading operations directly.

This means that users connected to Bookmaker accounts that have access only to Integration UOF, can also access Portal production.
