The following table shows the type of changes you can make in Admin Center:

	Changing account ownership	You can have only one owner per Zendesk account to access billing and manage subscriptions. If the current owner is leaving your company or will not be available, you can change the owner. For more information, see Changing the account owner.
	Managing subscriptions, invoices, and payments	Subscription: View and manage details about your current subscription, including product and plan types, agent seats, and annual costs. For more information, see Viewing subscriptions. Payment: Change the payment method associated with your account. Payment choices include: Check, Wire, ACH, Credit Card, Debit Card, or Paypal, depending on your account type. For more information, see Managing payments. Invoices: View recent invoices, change your sold-to address, and add additional invoice recipients. For more information, see Managing invoices. Products: View and request product add-ons, including Advanced Security and Success Services.
	Managing security settings	Manage how agents and end users are authenticated. For example, you can use Zendesk's own user authentication (the standard sign-in process) or you can remotely authenticate users using single sign-on (SSO).
