When your business adds you to Kila, Kila emails you. Choose your password from the email, then sign in at your business's own address.
Nobody at your business chooses or sees your password. The owner adds you with your email, Kila sends you a link to choose your own, and you sign in at the business’s workspace address.
Open the email from Kila
Look for You have been added to Nuru General Store on Kila, with your business’s name. It gives your role, the workspace address and the email you sign in with.
Tap Choose your password
The link works once, for seven days. If it has run out, see What if below.
Choose your password and tap Save password
