Everything in AuditDraw happens in your Account Center, and logging in takes less than a minute. Your account supports two sign-in methods, and both are turned on for you from day one:
- Password login: enter the password you chose.
- Email code login: we email you a short one-time code, and you type it in. No password needed.
The email code method is always available, so even if you forget your password you are never locked out of your account. You can log in with a code and then set a new password from your profile (Chapter 6 shows you how).
Step 1: Go to the login page
- Open your web browser and go to auditdraw.com.
- Click Log In at the top of the page.
- You will see the AuditDraw login screen asking for your email address.
- Type the email address your account uses, then click Next.
Note: Use the same email address your approval email was sent to. If AuditDraw does not recognize the address, you will see a message saying so. Check the spelling and try again, and see Chapter 10 if it still does not work.
Step 2, Option A: Log in with your password
If your account allows password login (it does, unless you asked us otherwise), the next screen asks for your password.
- Type your password in the Password field. You can click the small eye symbol to show what you typed.
- Click Log in with password.
Important: If you enter the wrong password several times in a row, sign-in is paused for a few minutes for your protection. The screen will tell you how long to wait. You can always use the email code method instead; it is not affected by the pause.
Step 2, Option B: Log in with an emailed code
Use this any time you do not know or do not want to type your password.
-
On the password screen, click Email a Login Code Instead.
-
AuditDraw immediately emails you a 5-character code. The email comes from AuditDraw Services (no-reply@auditdraw.com) with a subject like "Your AuditDraw code is AB2C4".
-
Go back to your browser. You will see five boxes waiting for the code.
-
Type the 5 characters from the email into the boxes. The screen submits automatically when you type the last character (or click Submit).
Tip: The email also contains a link reading "Or Click Here to Log In". Clicking it signs you in directly, with no typing at all.
Note: Each code works once and expires after about 10 minutes. If yours expires, click Resend code on the code screen to get a fresh one. If you request codes back to back, there is a short wait (about two minutes) before another can be sent, so check your spam or junk folder while you wait.
You're in: the Account Center
After you log in, you land on your Account Center dashboard, titled Account Home. Across the top you will find the main areas of your account:
- Dashboard: your home page, with quick actions and recent activity.
- Lotteries: create and manage your lotteries (Chapter 3).
- Documents: reports and certificates from your completed lotteries.
- Payments & Invoices: your billing area (Chapter 4).
Your name in the top corner opens a small menu with Account Settings, My Profile, and Log Out.
Forgot your password?
You do not need a "reset link". Just log in with an emailed code (Option B above), then set a new password from My Profile. Chapter 6 walks through it step by step.
Important: AuditDraw will never call or email you to ask for your password or a login code. If anyone asks for one, do not share it, and let us know (Chapter 10).
When you are done: logging out
Click your name in the top corner and choose Log Out. We recommend logging out whenever you use a shared or public computer.
