Portals are dashboards that simplify access to multiple memberships. With a unified login, your clients can manage their profiles and access memberships easily.

Use portals to group selected memberships on a single, grid-style page and decide if clients need to log in to the portal or to each membership individually.

  • Customization options: Add logos, marquee images, or progress bars to create a polished look.
  • Helpdesk integration: Connect Kartra’s Helpdesk or add external support links for client inquiries.
