Sign in with Google, Microsoft or LinkedIn
Instead of a HostTracker password, you can sign in with an existing Google, Microsoft or LinkedIn account.
Sign up or sign in with a provider
Section titled “Sign up or sign in with a provider”- On the sign-in or sign-up page (or an instant-check result card, for Google), click Google, Microsoft or LinkedIn.
- Complete that provider’s sign-in flow.
- You’re returned to HostTracker, signed in, on a persistent 30-day session.
How account linking works
Section titled “How account linking works”HostTracker links a provider sign-in to your account by email address, and only when the provider vouches for that email:
- Google’s sign-in is trusted only when Google reports the email as verified; Microsoft and LinkedIn account emails are treated as provider-verified by default. This stops someone from claiming an email they don’t actually control just because a provider handed it back unverified.
- If no HostTracker account exists yet with that (verified) email, a new account is created automatically and starts on the same 30-day trial every sign-up gets.
- If a HostTracker account already exists with that email - including one you originally created with a password, or with the email-only passwordless sign-up - the provider sign-in links to that same account. You don’t end up with two separate accounts; future sign-ins with either the password or the linked provider reach the same one.
- If the provider doesn’t return a usable, verified email (or you were completing a teammate invitation), you’re routed to the sign-up page instead, with the email pre-filled where available, so you can finish manually.
