Participants 101 and Simplero IDs

How Simplero IDs Are Assigned or Generated

When someone needs a login, typically if they purchased a product that has a site or a space associated with it, we will automatically set people up with a Simplero ID to log in and notify them about it by email.

The way it works is this:

1. If they're already logged in, we'll use their current Simplero ID. Easy peasy. No need to create additional ones.
2. If there's already a Simplero ID that's connected with the email address they used for the participant on a purchase, we'll use that. Again, no need to get another Simplero ID.
3. If there's not, we'll create a new one. It'll be based on the part of the email address before the '@' sign, and we'll generate a password for them, which we'll include in the email we send to them. We'll also let them be logged in right away, so they don't have to take that extra step.
