# Signing Up With Google as a Qyvea Vendor: Faster Setup, Fewer Passwords

A new password is one more thing to forget. Qyvea lets you create your vendor account with Google, which is quick and keeps sign-in simple.

**Quick answer:** On the vendor sign-up page, choose Google, approve access, and then complete the setup wizard. Use email and a password if you prefer not to use Google.

## How it works

Open the vendor sign-up page. Choose Google. Pick the Google account you use for business. Finish the setup wizard.

## When to use email instead

If several people share a device or you want a separate business login, use email and a password. The vendor portal asks you to repeat the password to avoid typos.

## Keep it secure

Use a business or personal account that only you can open. Turn on 2-step verification on your Google account. Do not share your login.

## If you lose access

Use the password reset on the sign-in page, or contact Qyvea.

## Why many suppliers choose Google sign-up

A common reason vendors lose access is forgotten passwords. With Google you sign in with an account your phone already knows. It also saves typing on a small keyboard and removes one more password to remember. For a supplier who is always moving between shop, stockroom and delivery, that matters.

## Security habits that matter more than the method

Turn on 2-step verification for the Google account you use. Never share your login code. Sign out on shared computers. Keep your phone locked. If you suspect someone else has access, change your Google password and contact Qyvea.

## Google sign-up versus email: a quick comparison

Google: fewer passwords, faster, relies on the security of your Google account. Email: independent login, works if you prefer not to use Google, needs a strong unique password. Either way: use a password manager or a secure note, never reuse your bank passwords.

## Recover access without panic

If you cannot sign in, first check you are using the same method you signed up with. For email accounts use the password reset on the sign-in page. For Google, recover the Google account first. If you are still stuck, message Qyvea with your business name and the email you used so the team can help.

## A typical scenario

A supplier signs up with the Gmail used for the shop, finishes the wizard on a phone and gets alerts on the same device. Illustrative example based on common cases, not a named vendor.

## Common mistakes

Using a shared or old Google account. No 2-step verification. Sharing the login with several staff.

## Quick checklist

Choose a secure Google account. Turn on 2-step verification. Finish the wizard.
