# Navigating Billing

<Tip>Most billing actions are restricted to *Account Owners*. To grant billing access to non-owners, like Finance team members, add them to the [Billing-Only Role](/core-concepts/security-compliance/access-permissions#billing-only). This role provides access to billing tasks without access to Aptible resources.</Tip>
