Social Login and Registration for Public Users

Sign In With Google

The social login feature allows public/individual authenticated users who require an account to access FINRA’s systems to register and log in using their existing Google account credentials. Social login makes the onboarding process easy and simplifies the authentication process by using user’s existing Google account information and credentials. This eliminates the need for maintaining an additional password, reduces password fatigue and minimizes friction while accessing FINRA's systems.

Note: Social login is not available for Firm and Org account types. Only public/Individual authenticated users can register and log in to their FINRA individual accounts with Google.

How Does Social Login Work?

Public users can create a FINRA individual account using their Google account credentials and then log in using the Sign In With Google option.

Users who have already created a FINRA account with their Google email address can link to it and sign in with Google. After linking, existing users can also log in with their password.
