Accepting and Managing Invitations in the Genuin Network

Overview

Once invitations are sent across the Genuin network, the next step is ensuring participants - brands, creators, and members, can seamlessly accept, access, and manage their roles within communities.

The invitation system is designed to provide:

• controlled access to communities and features
• role-based participation (brand, creator, member)
• flexible management of multiple community memberships

This guide explains how participants accept invitations, activate access, and manage their presence across the network.

Invitation Acceptance Flow

When a participant receives an invitation, the process follows a simple flow:

Receive Invitation

↓

Open Invite Link or Email

↓

Login or Create Account

↓

Accept Role & Community Access

↓

Enter Community Network

Once accepted, access is immediately granted based on the assigned role and permissions.

How to Accept an Invitation

Step 1: Access the Invitation

Invitations can be received through:

• email invitation
• direct invite link
• platform notification (web or mobile app)

Clicking the invite opens the onboarding screen.

Step 2: Log In or Sign Up

Participants must authenticate to join the network.

Options include:

• existing account login
• new account registration
• single sign-on (SSO), if enabled

This step ensures that all participants are identity-mapped and verified within the network.

Step 3: Review Access and Role

Before joining, participants can view:

• assigned role (brand, creator, member)
• communities they are being invited to
• permissions granted (posting, viewing, campaign access, etc.)

This provides clarity on what actions they can perform after joining.

Step 4: Accept the Invitation

After reviewing details, the participant confirms acceptance.

Once accepted:

• access is activated instantly
• communities become visible in their dashboard
• features unlock based on role

Managing Invitations After Joining

After entering the network, participants can manage their invitations and access.

View Joined Communities

Participants can see all communities they are part of.

Typical views include:

• list of joined communities
• role within each community
• access level (public, private, premium)

Manage Roles and Permissions

Depending on platform configuration, participants may:

• view their assigned role
• request role upgrades (e.g., member > creator)
• manage posting or participation settings

This ensures flexibility as participants expand their involvement in the network.

Accept or Decline Pending Invitations

If multiple invitations are received, participants can manage them individually.

Options include:

• accept invitation
• decline invitation
• postpone joining

This allows participants to control which communities they join.

Leave or Exit Communities

Participants can leave communities at any time.

When leaving:

• access to that community is removed
• posting and engagement permissions are revoked
• content visibility may be limited based on platform rules

This ensures participants maintain control over their participation.

Managing Invitations Across Roles

This helps measure onboarding effectiveness and network growth.
