Trouble Designating Alternate Host

I have a personal account and my camera club also has a Zoom account. They are both a non-free account. We are not on the same account. When I log in as the camera club to schedule a meeting, I get an error message when I try to entire my email account as the Alternate Host. I forget the exact wording, but it seems like I should be able to do it based on the wording. 

 

what seems to be the problem?

    Hello,

     You can only make someone an alternative host if they are part of the same account structure. 

    “Both users need to be Licensed and on the same account”

    Your personal free account is not part of your clubs account or licensed.

     

    Regards

    Does it make any difference if both the camera club and my account are Pro Accounts? They are separate accounts.

    Hello,

     

    Both users need to be Licensed (not free).
