Setting up galleries for clients
Two ways to deliver a gallery on behalf of a client — fully managed by you, or co-hosted so the client takes over after the event.

Partners typically deliver galleries to clients in one of two postures: fully managed (you create, configure, and run everything; the client just shows up to a finished product) or co-hosted (you set up the spine and hand the client a co-host invite so they can manage day-of and after).
Fully-managed flow: create the gallery on your own partner account, configure the theme to match the client's branding, upload a logo if they have one, set the event date + location, and decide on moderation. Share the QR code or printed signage with the client a couple of weeks before the event. You stay the sole admin; the client doesn't need a PixVenu account at all. This is the simplest delivery posture for clients who don't want any new tooling to learn.
Co-hosted flow: same setup, but use the "Add co-host" affordance on the host dashboard to invite the client by email. They receive an invitation, create their own account, and gain full edit access to the gallery — they can moderate photos, edit the welcome message, archive the gallery, and download the ZIP themselves. The original account stays owner; the client is a co-host with everything-but-delete permission. This is the right shape for clients who want long-term control of their archive after the event.
Either way, your partner account can manage many galleries side by side from the host dashboard at /home/galleries. The in-app bundle inventory counter + automatic decrement-on-create + dashboard top-up affordance ship alongside Stripe billing integration (see how-the-partner-program-works for the full shipped-vs-coming split); today the partner team tracks your bundle balance against your account and will let you know when you're approaching the next top-up.
