Customer Portal Overview (Legacy)

Overview: What are we talking about?

In Gingr, you can use the customer portal to allow your customers to engage with your business in a way that they expect in this day and age. Customers can update their information, request reservations, upload immunizations, purchase packages, apply pre-payments to estimates, pay off invoices, order retail items, and more.  

How to: Navigate the Customer Portal.

Accessing the Customer Portal

The customer portal can be accessed by going to https://businessname.gingrapp.com/customer where businessname is replaced with your own business name/custom Gingr URL.

Customers can log in using their email address or mobile phone number on file in Gingr or they can register as a new customer.
