Accepting a Staff Invite and Setting Your First Password

This is for someone who's never signed in before — the email that arrives the moment your school adds you as staff. If you already have an account and just forgot your password, see Logging In, Logging Out, and Resetting Your Own Password instead.

What the invite email says

The subject line names whoever added you — "[Name] has added you to Fees101" — or, if that's not available, "You've been added to [Your School] on Fees101." The email itself names your role and has one button: Set your password.

The real email ends with: "If you weren't expecting this, ignore it — nothing happens until you set a password." That's accurate — the link alone does nothing; your account only becomes usable once you actually set a password through it.

Setting your password

01

Choose Set your password in the email.

02

You'll land on a page showing your school's name, who invited you, and your role, so you can confirm it's the account you expect.

03

Enter a new password — at least 10 characters — and submit.

04You're signed in automatically and taken straight into the app.

There's no separate "confirm your email" step first.
