Traditionally logging into an account would require you to sign up using a username and a password specifically for the product you have an account on. 3rd Party Logins replaces the user ID and password combination, allowing you to log in via your Google or Facebook account saving you time. Because who needs another password to remember!
This article covers:
- Available 3rd Party Logins
- Creating an account with a 3rd Party Login
- Enabling 3rd Party Logins on existing accounts
- Disabling 3rd Party Logins
Available 3rd Party Logins
We offer the option to login via:
Creating an account with a 3rd Party Login
To create an account using a 3rd Party login:
- Go to the Sign Up page via: https://portal.trybooking.com/au/auth/signup
- Click either Sign Up with Facebook or Sign Up with Google
- You will be redirected to the 3rd party of your choice, prompted to enter in your existing username and password for that application
Once complete, to login to your TryBooking account, rather than entering an email address and password in the relative fields you will select the log in options for the 3rd party you sign up with eg. Log In with Facebook or Log In with Google.
Enabling 3rd Party Logins on existing accounts
Should you have already set up an account using an email and password, but would like to add a 3rd Party login for ease of logging in, you will be able to enable it on an existing account.
To set up 3rd party logins on an existing account:
- Log in to your account using the current email address and password
- Click on your user name in the top right corner
- Select User Settings from the drop-down menu
- Next to the heading Third party application logins, click on the option you wish to enable
- A pop-up box will display prompting you to enter the credentials for the application you have chosen to link to
- Once complete, text next to the option you have select will confirm that account has been successfully linked
Disabling 3rd Party Logins
Over time you may find the 3rd party accounts are no longer in use. Perhaps you've moved email addresses or you've opted to take a break from social media.
To disable 3rd party logins on an existing account:
- Log in to your account using the current email address and password
- Click on your user name in the top right corner
- Select User Settings from the drop-down menu
- Next to the heading Third party application logins, click on the Unlink button on the 3rd party login you wish to disable
- Once complete, the linked account text will be removed, and a message confirming the unlinking was successful will appear at the top of the page
If you had created your account using a 3rd Party sign up, you will need to add in an email address and password for the account before you can disable the 3rd party option. This can be done via the Email and Password fields on the same screen
