Welcome to Sendible’s dashboard, this guide will help you get started with using our platform.

Signing in
After signing up for one of our Paid Plans or for our Free Trial, you will be able to sign in. Select Sign In and
add your username and password.

By checking Remember me on this computer, you will make signing in easier in the future as you will not have
to sign in every time you use Sendible from the same computer. Please be aware that if you ever select Sign
Out, you will then be forced to sign in again.

If you have forgotten your password, you can select Forgotten your password, add your email address and
we will reset your password for you. You can always change this to a more memorable one at a later stage.
