# Set up a HubSpot sandbox account

## Super admins can create sandbox accounts to test functionalities without impacting your main account. For example, connect an app app to your sandbox account to test a new integration. You can sync data from your main account to test the integration

If you [add users to your sandbox account](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/settings/add-and-remove-users), HubSpot will not create them as new users in your main account. For example, if you add a consultant or contract worker to a sandbox, they will not have access to your main account. Only *super admins* are added by default as users in a sandbox account. 

Similarly, paid seats assigned in a sandbox account will not impact the seats in your main account. Users with a paid *Sales Hub *or *Service Hub *seat in your main account will also not automatically be assigned that seat if they are added to the sandbox account.
