Hello Aveesha!

Here is how you can ENABLE CO-HOST on your PAID Zoom account:

1. Sign-in to your account via Zoom.us

2. Go to the MY ACCOUNT link on the upper right-hand corner of the page.

3. On the left-hand side of the MY ACCOUNT area, you will see SETTINGS. Click this and then choose the  MEETING section.

4. From the MEETING section or tab, please go and click IN MEETING (BASIC). In this section you will find the CO-HOST option. You can then activate or de-activate having a CO-HOST or ALTERNATIVE HOST from here.

 

I hope this helps. Please refer to my attached screenshots for clarity. 

 

Wishing you all the best,

Frances

Hi @Aveesha 

 

In addition to @franxxx's instructions, please also note you can only assign an actual Co-Host during a meeting, once it has started.
