# Google sign-in

> Log in to PEX with your Google account instead of a username and password. Google sign-in works on both the PEX Dashboard and the PEX mobile app

<Note>
  **Note:**

  Google sign-in must be enabled for your PEX account. If you don't see the Google sign-in option on the Profile page, contact the PEX support team.
</Note>

## How Google sign-in works

Google sign-in uses OpenID Connect (OIDC) to securely verify your identity with Google and log you in to PEX. When you click the **Sign in with Google** button, PEX confirms your Google account matches a linked PEX account and signs you in — no separate username or password needed.

Google sign-in is available on:

* **PEX Dashboard** (web) at [dashboard.pexcard.com](https://dashboard.pexcard.com?utm_source=support)
* **PEX mobile app** (iOS and Android)

## Linking your Google account

If you already have a PEX account, link your Google account from your Profile settings.

    Log in to [dashboard.pexcard.com](https://dashboard.pexcard.com?utm_source=support) with your username and password.

## Frequently asked questions

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="What if my Google account isn't linked to PEX yet?">
    If you try to sign in with a Google account that isn't linked to any PEX account, you'll see a message explaining that the account isn't connected. Sign in with your PEX username and password first, then link your Google account from **My Profile**.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I link a Google account that's already used by another PEX user?">
    No. Each Google account can only be linked to one PEX user. If you see a message that the account is already linked to another user, try a different Google account or unlink your Google account from the PEX account first.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Does Google sign-in work with Multi-Program Access (MPA)?">
    Yes. Link your Google account to your primary PEX user account. Sign in with Google to access that account, then use MPA to switch to linked businesses as usual.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Is Google sign-in available on the PEX mobile app?">
    Yes. The **Sign in with Google** button appears on the mobile app login screen. The app opens a secure browser window to complete the Google sign-in flow.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Does Google sign-in replace my PEX password?">
    No. Your PEX username and password remain active. Google sign-in is an additional login option for convenience — you can always fall back to your credentials.

  <Accordion title="Do I still need to complete MFA when using Google sign-in?">
    If your business requires multi-factor authentication, you may be prompted for a secure access code after signing in with Google, just like a regular login.
