New feature: Log into Smarty with your Google account

You've asked for it, and now you’ve got it. The next time you log into your Smarty account, you’ll see the option to log in to Smarty using your Google account.

In this blog, we'll cover how to:

Merge an existing Smarty account with Google

Merging your account with your Google account will not affect your available lookups, security keys, or any other part of your Smarty account. Merging your Smarty account will:

  • Increase security by reducing the number of managed passwords and how often you have to enter your password.
  • Allow you to leverage additional security features offered by Google, such as 2-factor authentication when you log in with Smarty.
  • Speed up and simplify your login process.
  • Permit you to log in simply by returning to Smarty.com or by logging in with a single click.

To merge with your existing Smarty account, the login email you use for Smarty MUST be the same as the Google account you select.

Here’s the process for merging your existing Smarty account with a Google account in 4 simple steps:

  1. Log out of your Smarty account.
    Log in page
  2. Go to the login page.
  3. Click the "Log In with Google" button.
  4. Select the account you would like to use as your Smarty.com login and follow the prompts.
  5. A message will appear asking you if you would like to Merge with the account associated with your email. Select "CONTINUE."

Verify your login

That's it! Enjoy the comfort, convenience, and security of using your Google account to log in to Smarty.

You finally track down an essential addition to your collector’s set of [insert item of your choice], and you're hyped to buy it until the chaos begins. The cart is hidden in a fly-out on the side, cluttered with blocky, overwhelming text. You spend way too long just trying to find the "Proceed to Checkout" button. 👎 That’s bad UI (user interface): messy, confusing design that makes navigation a chore.

Ever wondered, “Where did all my lookups go?!” Without proper API management, you may burn through your lookups quicker, experience runaway code, and encounter unexpected usage. That’s why Smarty created usage by key (included in all annual plans) and limit by key (included in some plans; you can add them by contacting sales) for its APIs. Why key management mattersCommon API usage challenges (problems to solve):Unexpected spikes in lookupsDifficulty tracking specific key usageWhich keys are calling which Smarty licenseNeed for better control over API consumptionDifficulty allocating Smarty lookups across an organizationWith Smarty's key management features, you gain more control by having better visibility of your usage, eliminating the element of surprise (you know, the bad kind, like when you’re suddenly out of lookups).
