How to add another business branch on Posa

Add a second business branch — click Add new business, fill in the new branch, then switch between branches from the top bar.

Use this guide when you already have one business branch on Posa and you want another. In the app, click Add new business. That adds a new branch. You switch between branches from the top bar.

Each paid plan has a maximum number of business branches. You can go above that number if you buy an Extra Business add-on. These limits are as of 17 September 2026, when this article was written.

  • Posa Starter — 1 business branch
  • Posa Plus — 2 business branches
  • Posa Premium — 4 business branches
  • Posa Elite — 10 business branches

On Starter you already have your one branch, so you cannot add a second until you upgrade or buy an extra business add-on — see How to upgrade to a higher subscription plan on Posa. Follow the steps below if you still have not maxed out the maximum number of branches alloted to your plan or you purchased an extra business add-on slot. If Posa says you have used up your branches, go to step 9.

1. Click Add new business
