Forgot password or can't sign in to Uku
Who this is for
Section titled “Who this is for”- Anyone who cannot sign in to their Uku account — Company Owners, Company Admins, and Company Members.
- This is not for Client Portal users. Portal users sign in via magic links sent by their firm; if you are a portal user, ask the firm to resend your sign-in email.
Reset your password
Section titled “Reset your password”- Go to your firm’s Uku URL (
<companyname>.uku.app) orapp.getuku.com. - On the sign-in page, click Forgot password?.
- Enter the email address you use for Uku and click Send reset link.
- Open the email titled “Reset your Uku password” and click the link inside. The link is valid for a limited time — open it on the device and browser you want to sign in from.
- Type your new password twice (minimum 8 characters with letters and numbers) and click Save (or the equivalent confirm button).
- You are signed in and taken to your dashboard.
If you signed up originally with Google or Microsoft rather than email and password, the reset email will not arrive — your account does not have a password to reset. Use the Continue with Google or Continue with Microsoft button on the sign-in page instead.
Troubleshooting
Section titled “Troubleshooting”My password reset email never arrived
Section titled “My password reset email never arrived”Check your spam, junk, and “Promotions” folders first — corporate spam filters often divert automated emails. Wait a few minutes; the email is usually instant but can take up to 5 minutes during heavy load. If it still has not arrived, the most common reasons are:
- Your account was created with Google or Microsoft sign-in. There is no password to reset — sign in with the matching provider button on the sign-in page.
- You typed an email address that is not the one your firm invited. Ask your Company Admin to confirm the exact email on your member record.
- Your firm uses a custom mail filter that blocks Uku’s sender. Ask IT to allow
getuku.comand request the reset again.
My account is locked or deactivated
Section titled “My account is locked or deactivated”If a Company Owner or Company Admin has deactivated your member account, you cannot sign in until they reactivate it. Contact your firm — only an active Company Owner or Company Admin can reactivate a member from Settings & Apps → Members. Deactivation is different from deletion: a deactivated member can be brought back, while a deleted member’s record is gone.
My invitation expired before I accepted it
Section titled “My invitation expired before I accepted it”Invitation links are single-use and time-limited. Ask your Company Owner or Company Admin to Resend invitation from Settings & Apps → Members. See Accept your invitation to join Uku for the full setup flow.
I do not know my company’s Uku URL
Section titled “I do not know my company’s Uku URL”Every Uku company has its own subdomain — <companyname>.uku.app. If you cannot remember it:
- Search your inbox for an email from
noreply@getuku.com. The links inside contain your firm’s URL. - Ask a colleague who is signed in to copy the URL from their browser address bar.
- Sign in via
app.getuku.comand Uku will route you to the correct firm if your email is unique to one company. If your email is associated with multiple companies, you will be asked to pick which one.
I am locked out because of too many failed attempts
Section titled “I am locked out because of too many failed attempts”After repeated failed sign-in attempts Uku may temporarily block further tries from your IP for security. Wait 15 minutes and try again with the correct password — or click Forgot password? to reset it. If the problem persists, contact your Company Owner or Company Admin so they can confirm your account is not deactivated.
I am a Client Portal user, not a team member
Section titled “I am a Client Portal user, not a team member”Client Portal users sign in with a magic link sent to their email each time — there is no password. If your magic link expired or never arrived, contact the firm whose portal you are accessing and ask them to send a new sign-in email. The firm’s Company Admin can resend it from the client’s Members tab.
