### Do company owners occupy a subscription seat?
Company owners don't occupy a seat in any organization unless they are added as a
member of the organization. Since company owners have the same access as
organization owners for all organizations associated with the company, it is not
necessary to add company owners to an organization.
Company owners do not occupy a seat unless one of the following is true:
Note that when you first create a company, your account will be both a company
owner and an organization owner. Your account will occupy a seat as long as
you're an organization owner.
- They are added as a member of an organization under your company
- SSO is enabled
Although company owners have the same access as organization owners across all
organizations in the company, it's not necessary to add them to any
organization. Doing so will cause them to occupy a seat.
When you first create a company, your account is both a company owner and an
organization owner. In that case, your account will occupy a seat as long as
you remain an organization owner.
To avoid occupying a seat, [assign another user as the organization owner](/manuals/admin/organization/members.md#update-a-member-role) and remove yourself from the organization.
You'll retain full administrative access as a company owner without using a
subscription seat.
### What permissions does the company owner have in the associated/nested organizations?
