Overview
At some point, one of your tenants might contact you, saying they are having trouble logging in to the tenant portal or accepting their invite. Don't worry, there are clear and easy steps you can take to help them out!
Helping Tenants Access their Portal
In our rush to complete our daily tasks, sometimes we skim or miss key information. Some of your tenants may face a hiccup or two as they get into the routine of using their tenant portal to pay rent online.
Tenants portal invite has expired error
If a tenant says they are getting an error message saying the portal invite has expired, this usually means they have already accepted the tenant portal invite to set up their password.
Sometimes tenants think they can come back and use the Accept Invitation button in their invite email to log in to their tenant portal. However, this does not work. Once a tenant invite has been accepted, the Accept Invitation button in the invite email will no longer work.
Instead, tenants have several different ways they should log in to their portal.
Tenants can always go to https://app.doorloop.com/auth/login and enter their email address and password to log in to their tenant portal.
If you send out rent reminder emails or tenant portal announcements, these have links tenants can use to log in to their tenant portal.
There is also an Account URL link in the invite email (which you can brand) they can use and bookmark to log in to their portal. However, just going to https://app.doorloop.com/auth/login or using a rent reminder email is likely the easiest.
Tenant can't log in to their portal
If a tenant has trouble logging in and they aren’t trying to reuse their original tenant portal invite email, they likely forgot their password.
You can have them use the Forgot password? link on the login page, or they can go to https://app.doorloop.com/auth/forgot-password to reset their password.
You can suggest they use a password manager to help them remember their password in the future.
It could be possible that their lease is no longer active which would disable the tenants portal. Make sure their lease is still active.
Check the tenant portal settings to make sure the tenant portal is still active.
Tenant says using correct site and resetting password didn't work
If everything else fails to fix the issue, you can re-invite your tenants to their tenant portal.
If that doesn’t work, contact our customer support team via the chat bubble in the bottom right corner of the login page.
Tenant is receiving a Invalid email or password error
The "Invalid email or password" error when trying to log in normally means that either their password they are using is incorrect, or their email is not in the database. This can occur when the tenant has not properly accepted their tenant portal invite. Have them refer to this article: How to Accept Your Tenant Portal Invite (Step-by-Step).
Tenant Portal Invites can only be sent to tenants on Active Leases
Tenant portal invites can not be sent to tenants who are on a Draft Lease. The Draft Lease must be activated and then a tenant portal invite can be sent to them. Portal invites also can not be sent to leases that have been ended and are now inactive.
