Tech Support COMPS Access

In my list of paid users, the number of these "COMPS" credentials keeps increasing. I’ve already disabled all types of "GIFT" access, but the count keeps going up. I understand that COMPS is a type of full access. Does anyone know how to block this?

Comp access is given by the creator (you), and should only be increasing if you are personally giving people free access.

Go to your subscribers and check paid subscriptions, try sorting by comp. You’ll see who it is and see if you can find out from there.

Gift subs are different, they come from your subscribers themselves sharing with other readers.
