Sign in with Google: single sign-on for your brokerage
This page contains AI-generated content.
- On the broker’s path
- Platform
The problem this solves: One more password for one more tool: brokers reuse the same one everywhere or reset it every other week.
Choose Continue with Google on either the sign-in or sign-up page. An existing account signs in; a new account continues to the remaining registration steps when access is available. Your invitation and the page you wanted to open are preserved.
What you can do
Section titled “What you can do”- Sign in without a password. Single sign-on (SSO) with Google: you sign in to Google once and Capitality takes over the confirmed identity. If you have several Google accounts, you pick the right one each time.
- Sign up with Google. Google supplies your name and address. If you are new, review your name and accept the terms and data processing agreement (AVV) before creating the account. Marketing updates and the design-partner programme remain optional.
- Keep your existing account. If you already have an account with a password and the same confirmed email address, Google signs you in to exactly that account. You then have two ways in: password and Google.
- Stay safe with 2FA. If you switched on two-step sign-in, Capitality asks for the code from your authenticator app after Google as well.
How it works
Section titled “How it works”- On the sign-in page you click „Continue with Google“.
- Google shows its own page: you pick your account and confirm if Google asks. You type your Google password only at Google, never at Capitality.
- Google sends you back to Capitality, signed in — to the page you wanted to open.
If there is no account yet, Capitality offers the short registration step. When registration is closed and you have no valid invitation, it shows an access request with your address already filled in. You never need to restart from a different page. No workspace is created by signing in.
What Capitality receives from Google
Section titled “What Capitality receives from Google”| Capitality receives | Capitality does not receive |
|---|---|
| Name | Email in Gmail |
| Email address, confirmed by Google | Events in Google Calendar |
| Profile picture | Files in Google Drive |
| Your Google password |
A mailbox or a calendar you connect separately in the settings, if you want to — with its own consent at Google, which you can take back at any time.
Limits and notes
Section titled “Limits and notes”- Unconfirmed password account. If your address has an account with a password whose address is not confirmed yet, Capitality does not join it to Google: nobody can take over an account someone else created under your address. Sign in with the password and confirm the address from the email; after that, Google works too.
- Sign-up by invitation only. When sign-up is closed, that holds for Google too: an account is made only for an invited address.
- Taking access back. In your Google account under Security → Your connections to third-party apps and services you remove Capitality. Your data in Capitality stays; you then sign in with email and password.
- Your own identity provider. Signing in through your firm’s own identity provider (for example via SAML) is not offered at the moment.
