Bettr Manager has no passwords. You sign in with a one-time link sent to your
email, and what keeps you signed in afterward is a session your browser holds.
This is the reference for that machinery — every screen in the sign-in flow, what
the one-time link does, the name prompt on your first sign-in, how long a session
lasts, and where signing in drops you. To walk it step by step, read
Sign in to Bettr; to follow along on
the real screens, open the sign-in page.
The sign-in screens
The whole flow lives under /auth, and each step is its own screen:
The sign-in page — /auth sends you to the email form. Under the
heading Sign in or create an account sits a single Email field and a
Continue button, and no password field. The same page signs in a returning
member and creates a first-time account — there's nothing separate to fill out.
Check your email — once you submit your address, Bettr Manager holds here
while the link travels to your inbox. The screen reads We just sent you a
link — click it and you're in, with a try a different address link that
takes you back to the email field for when you mistype the address.
The link itself — opening the link in your inbox is what actually signs you
in. It carries a one-time token; landing on it starts your session and sends you
on.
The one-time link
The email arrives with the subject Your Bettr Manager link and a Continue
button. Three things govern how it behaves:
It works once. Opening the link signs you in and spends it; the same link
won't sign you in a second time.
The newest link is the one that works. If you request another before using
the first, only the most recent link stays valid.
There's no password behind any of it — nothing to set, reset, or recover.
When you need to sign in again later, you request a fresh link from the sign-in
page.
Your name, the first time
On your first sign-in, Bettr Manager needs your name before it lets you into the
app. The Complete your profile screen at /auth/complete-profile asks for two
things:
First name — required.
Last name — required.
Together they become your display name — what teammates see next to the runs,
orders, and approvals you touch, and what shows on
your profile. Select Save
profile and Bettr Manager sends you on to wherever you were headed.
This screen appears only while your name is unset: on your first sign-in, and
never again after. Any signed-in account still missing a name is routed here
before it can open anything else.
Your session
Signing in creates a session tied to the browser you signed in on. That session
is what keeps you signed in from one visit to the next — you won't be asked for a
fresh link each time you come back.
It lasts up to a year on that browser before it lapses on its own.
It stays valid until you sign out or your access is revoked. If an
administrator sets your account to inactive or terminated, Bettr Manager stops
honoring the session and treats you as signed out — even mid-visit.
Each device is its own session. Signing in on your phone and your laptop
makes two separate sessions, and signing out of one leaves the other running.
Signing out
There's no sign-out page to navigate to. The Sign out button lives in the
account menu at the top-right of the app — and on Bettr Manager's public pages
whenever you're signed in. Selecting it ends the session on that browser and
returns you to the public homepage. The next time you want in, you start again
from the sign-in page.
Where signing in sends you
Where you land after signing in depends on whether you already belong to a
workspace:
A member of a company lands on the home dashboard. From then on, Bettr
Manager's public homepage and sign-in page won't show to you — visiting either
while signed in redirects you into the app.
An account with no workspace yet — you've signed in but don't belong to a
company — is sent to the pricing page instead, to pick a plan and set one up.
Opening the sign-in page while already signed in bounces you straight back
into the app with the notice You are already signed in.
