During checkout
You set your password right after payment and get in immediately — no confirmation email needed.
Later / separately
You set up your login on its own, so we send a confirmation email you’ll need to click first.
During checkout (instant access)
When you join through the signup flow and complete payment, you’ll land on a success page that prompts you to create your password.1
Complete checkout
Finish payment on the join page.
2
Create your password
On the success page, a quick popup prompts you to set your account password (and asks an optional “How did you hear about us?” question).
3
You're in
Your account is confirmed automatically and you go straight to your dashboard — no confirmation email required.
Because your identity is already verified by your completed purchase, we confirm your email for you. You won’t need to check your inbox to start.
Setting up your login separately (email confirmation)
If you didn’t set a password during checkout — for example, you’re an existing member setting up online access for the first time — you’ll create your login on its own. For security, this path includes a one-time email confirmation.1
Enter your email and a password
Use the same email address that’s on your General Referral account.
2
Check your inbox
We send a confirmation email from General Referral. Open it and click the confirmation link.
3
Finish signing in
The link verifies your address and takes you to your dashboard.
Were you invited to manage a team?
If a team leader added you as a team owner or manager, you’ll receive an invitation email with a link. Click it, set your password, and you’re in — there’s no separate confirmation email for invited team members. (See Your Team Dashboard for what comes next.)Frequently asked questions

I didn't get the confirmation email
Check your spam or promotions folder first. Make sure you used the same email address that’s on your General Referral account. Still nothing? Contact support and we’ll help.

Confirmation links are time-limited. If yours has expired, start the login setup again to receive a fresh link, or reach out to support.
Why did I need to confirm my email but my colleague didn't?
Why did I need to confirm my email but my colleague didn't?
If you set your password during checkout, we confirm your email automatically. The confirmation step only applies when you set up your login separately from a purchase.
Do I use a different password for the member portal and a team?
Do I use a different password for the member portal and a team?
No. You have one login. The same email and password gets you into your dashboard and, if you lead or help manage a team, the team portal.
