How to Sign In or Sign Up with Google

Overview

SquadTrip supports Google Sign-In, so you can create an account or log in using your Google account — no need to remember another password. This works for both travelers and organizers.

SquadTrip login page with the Email Address and Password fields, Remember me, Forgot Password?, the Sign In button and, below OR, the Sign in with Google button

Getting to Google Sign-In

  1. Go to the login page -- organizers use dashboard.squadtrip.com/organizer-login; travelers use the login page on their organizer's trip site (the link in your booking emails)

  2. Look for the "Sign in with Google" button below the email/password fields

  3. The generic /login page has the button too, but traveler Google sign-in only works on your organizer's trip site -- on dashboard.squadtrip.com it answers "Please log in using your company's specific login URL."

Signing Up with Google

If you're new to SquadTrip:

  1. Go to the sign-up page -- organizers at dashboard.squadtrip.com/get-started, travelers on the organizer's trip site (or the "Sign Up with Google" button right after checkout)

  2. Click "Sign up with Google"

  3. Select your Google account (or enter your Google email and password)

  4. Confirm the Google prompt -- SquadTrip receives only your name, email and profile picture

  5. Your SquadTrip account is created automatically using your Google profile information

  6. You're logged in and ready to go!

What SquadTrip accesses: Only your name, email address and profile picture from your Google account. SquadTrip does not access your contacts, calendar, or other Google data.

Logging In with Google

If you already have a SquadTrip account linked to Google:

  1. Go to the SquadTrip sign-up page — organizers: the "Get Started" / create-a-trip sign-up; travelers: the sign-in step during trip checkout. (On the plain login page, Google Sign-In only logs in existing accounts — it will show an error if no account matches.)

  2. Click "Sign in with Google"

  3. Select your Google account

  4. You're logged in — that's it!

Linking Google to an Existing Account

If you originally signed up with email/password and want to add Google Sign-In:

  • Nothing to set up -- when you use "Sign in with Google" with the same email address, SquadTrip signs you into your existing account, provided it was created with Google or its email has been verified (an unverified email/password account is not matched and shows "No google User Exists")

  • Going forward, you can log in with either method

Setting Up a Password (Google Users)

If you signed up with Google and want to also have a traditional password:

  1. Go to the login page

  2. Click "Forgot Password?"

  3. Enter the email address associated with your Google account

  4. You'll receive a 6-digit confirmation code by email

  5. Enter the code and create a new password

  6. Now you can log in with either Google or your email/password

This is useful if you sometimes want to log in on devices where you're not signed into Google.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I use Google Sign-In for both traveler and organizer accounts? A: Yes, Google Sign-In works for both account types.

Q: What if my Google email is different from my SquadTrip email? A: Your Google Sign-In email must match your SquadTrip account email. If they're different, the login page says "No google User Exists" (travelers) or "No User Exists" (organizers), and a sign-up page would create a separate account instead of using your existing one.

Q: Is my Google password shared with SquadTrip? A: No. Google Sign-In uses OAuth, which means SquadTrip never sees or stores your Google password. Authentication happens directly with Google.

Q: I see "You haven't set up a password yet" when trying to log in — what does this mean? A: This means your account was created via Google and doesn't have a traditional password yet. Either use the "Sign in with Google" button, or set up a password using the "Forgot Password?" flow.

Q: Can I disconnect Google from my account? A: If you've set up a password (see above), you can log in with email/password without using Google. Contact support if you need to fully disconnect Google from your account.

Troubleshooting

Problem

Solution

"Sign in with Google" button not appearing

Refresh the login page and ensure JavaScript is enabled in your browser. If you are using a privacy-focused browser or extension that blocks third-party scripts, try disabling it temporarily or use a different browser.

Google sign-in redirects but does not log me in

Your Google email may not match an existing SquadTrip account ("No google User Exists" for travelers, "No User Exists" for organizers). Check which email you are using, and make sure you are on your organizer's trip site if you are a traveler. If you already have an account with a different email, log in with your original credentials.

Error message after authorizing Google

Clear your browser cookies and cache, then try again. If the error persists, try signing in using an incognito/private window. Contact support at [email protected] if the issue continues.

Created a duplicate account accidentally

If you signed in with Google using a different email than your existing account, contact support to merge your accounts. Provide both email addresses so we can consolidate your bookings.
