General Tips & Tricks for Account Management

Efficient account management is key to a smooth gaming experience. Here are some general tips and tricks:

1. Account Independence:
   • Ensure accounts are not tied to specific employees, anticipating potential staffing changes.
   • Consider creating generic Gmail or Outlook accounts as core accounts or work with IT to generate accessible accounts for the entire team.
2. Gmail "+" Trick:
   • For Gmail users, use the "+" trick to sign up for multiple accounts using the same email address.
   • Example: [email protected] is equivalent to [email protected] and [email protected].
   • Simplify account management with a single login for multiple accounts.
3. Outlook Email Addresses for Consoles:
   • Utilize Outlook email addresses for individual console accounts; they are automatically associated with Microsoft/Xbox services.
   • The Outlook account functions like any other email address and can be used to create accounts on various gaming platforms (Epic, PlayStation, Nintendo, etc.).

These tips and tricks empower efficient account management, providing flexibility and ease of use for your gaming program.
