Linking your Ecologi accounts (sub-profiles / parent profiles)

Link multiple profiles so that all of your collective impact is visualised under one parent profile

By using our sub-profile feature, you're able to set multiple Ecologi accounts as sub-profiles which sit under one parent profile. By doing so, the impact funded in each sub-profile will be reflected in one account - now that's true collective action!

This is a great feature if you have multiple stores / offices / businesses that have their own individual Ecologi account.

What do the profiles look like?

Parent profiles - These look similar to a usual Ecologi profile, however, they will show a summary of the total amount of impact at the top of the profile. The impact forest will include a link to each sub-profile, along with any impact funded directly into the parent profile. 

Sub-profiles - These look exactly the same as a regular Ecologi profile, with the addition of a link to the parent forest at the top of the profile.

FAQs

Will linking an account move the impact from the sub-profile to the parent profile?

Short answer - No. The parent profile helps to visualise the collective impact from all sub-profiles, but the actual impact which has been funded will remain within, and owned by, the sub-profile.

 

How many parent profiles can I link a sub-profile to?

You're only able to link a sub-profile to one parent profile - however, if you need to change this then please message our wonderful support team who will be happy to help.

 

Is there a limit to the number of sub-profiles that can be underneath a parent profile?

Nope! There is no limit, so please feel free to add as many sub-profiles as you like 😊

 

I want to set up multiple sub-forests - do I need to contact support every time?

If you need to set up multiple sub-forests, please contact customer support who can create a custom link that will allow new profiles to be created that link automatically to the parent profile.
