myTI company account & API keys
myTI company account
What is the difference between personal myTI accounts and myTI company accounts?
In a personal myTI account, only you have access to information such as your personal checkout profiles and order history. A myTI company account is a joint account shared between colleagues at the same company, who have various levels of control over the account based on their role but can see the company’s checkout profiles and order history.
What are the various roles within a myTI company account?
These are the current roles within a myTI company account:
- Administrators manage company accounts. They can add or edit users and checkout profiles, manage purchases and account information, and manage application programming interfaces (APIs).
- Buyers help manage company accounts. They can invite, change roles for, or remove users; manage checkout profiles; and edit basic company information.
- Finance has view-only access to company accounts. They can view and download orders and tracking information and use checkout profiles.

How do I view my personal account if I have been logged in as a team member on a myTI company account? Or how do I view my company’s account if I have been logged into my personal myTI account?
If you already have a personal account and become a team member on a myTI company account, you will not have access to your personal account. You will still able to view orders placed on your personal account, however, you cannot place any personal orders once you join a company account. If you wish to place a personal order, you will need to register a new personal myTI account or leave the company account.
You can only access back to your personal account if you have been removed from a company account or your company account status is Inactive (e.g., Locked or Blocked).
Why is my company account locked?
TI emails anyone in an administrator role on a myTI company account reminding them to log in at least once every 90 days. If they do not log in after receiving reminders 21, 14 and seven days before that 90-day timeframe, TI locks the company account.
The administrator can begin the process of unlocking the company account by logging in.
If there is an issue with an administrator, please let us know by opening a new support request with the TI customer support center.
Why was the myTI company account on which I am a team member deleted?
A team member in the administrator role deleted the company account. If you feel that this deletion was an inadvertent error, contact the administrator and ask them to open a new support request with the TI customer support center to begin the process of recreating the company account.
What does a “valid company email” mean?
In order to join a myTI company account, all users must have an email address within that company’s domain, rather than an address from free email domains such as Gmail or universities.
If the email address associated with your existing myTI account is not a corporate address and you need to join a myTI company account, please update your email by following the directions in the FAQ question, “How do I change my email address?”
What happens if I am currently a team member on a myTI company account but need to change my email address?
If you change your email address to one that is not associated with your company, you will lose access to the company account. See the FAQ question, “What does a ‘valid company email’ mean?”
If you need to change your email address but the domain is still within your company’s domain, you will also lose access to the company account. Please ask a team member in an administrator or buyer role on the company account to reinvite you.
