New feature: Log into Smarty with your Google account

You've asked for it, and now you’ve got it. The next time you log into your Smarty account, you’ll see the option to log in to Smarty using your Google account.

In this blog, we'll cover how to:

Merge an existing Smarty account with Google

Merging your account with your Google account will not affect your available lookups, security keys, or any other part of your Smarty account. Merging your Smarty account will:

  • Increase security by reducing the number of managed passwords and how often you have to enter your password.
  • Allow you to leverage additional security features offered by Google, such as 2-factor authentication when you log in with Smarty.
  • Speed up and simplify your login process.
  • Permit you to log in simply by returning to Smarty.com or by logging in with a single click.

To merge with your existing Smarty account, the login email you use for Smarty MUST be the same as the Google account you select.

Here’s the process for merging your existing Smarty account with a Google account in 4 simple steps:

  1. Log out of your Smarty account.
    Log in page
  2. Go to the login page.
  3. Click the "Log In with Google" button.
  4. Select the account you would like to use as your Smarty.com login and follow the prompts.
  5. A message will appear asking you if you would like to Merge with the account associated with your email. Select "CONTINUE."

Verify your login

That's it! Enjoy the comfort, convenience, and security of using your Google account to log in to Smarty.
