# Account

An **Account** represents a tenant profile on the Gamopanda platform. It defines the root configurations governing regional, localization, and integration behaviors for your loyalty program.

:::note
While the Account resource supports standard CRUD operations internally, it is **not publicly accessible** via public REST API endpoints. It is strictly managed via the administrator dashboard.

## How it works

1. **Configure account profile** — define basic identity settings, such as your account name.
2. **Set regional defaults** — specify the default language and default timezone for date calculations and schedule execution.
3. **Enable translation locales** — register the array of supported language codes to enable multilingual copies inside the loyalty widget and email templates.
4. **Connect cart platform** — specify the cart integration provider (Shopify, Wix, or Custom) to bridge purchase transactions and store events.

:::note
Please do not modify it unless you have actually switched your cart.
