- A parent publisher can use the Manage Account delegation with multiple child publishers.

Payment facilitation
Manage Account offers payment facilitation, where Google can automatically send earnings accrued in the child network to the parent. For reseller partners, this percentage is always 100%. For other partners, this percentage is specified in the invitation from the parent to the child and can vary from 0-100%.
Payment facilitation applies to earnings from the child's Primary Ad Exchange account for the following transaction types:
- Open Bidding (except where the third-party demand partner directly pays the child or a third party on the child's behalf)
- Preferred Deals
- Programmatic Guaranteed
- Private Auctions
- Open Auctions
