Signing In

Bkper uses Google Sign-In for authentication. Your Google Account provides a secure connection every time you access Bkper and its Google Workspace integrations — Sheets, Docs, and Apps Script all recognize the same identity.

Visit app.bkper.com and click Sign In. Enter your email address and authorize Bkper to recognize your account. This authorization is only required the first time you sign in.

After the initial sign-in, future sessions require no additional permissions. Your Google Account keeps the connection secure.

Sign in to Bkper

Signing in with a company or domain email

Many professionals — accountants, CPAs, consultants — use a company domain email (like name@yourfirm.com) rather than a Gmail address. You can sign in to Bkper with any email, as long as it is linked to a Google Account. There are two common scenarios:

Google Workspace users — If your organization uses Google Workspace (formerly G Suite), your company email is already a Google Account. Sign in at app.bkper.com with your company email and password as usual. No extra setup needed.

Non-Google email providers — If your company email is hosted elsewhere (Microsoft 365, your own mail server, etc.), you can create a Google Account linked to that email address. Open app.bkper.com and click Sign In. On the Google sign-in page, click Create account, then select Use my current email address instead.

Follow the instructions to complete the Google Account setup. Once finished, you sign in to Bkper with your existing company email — no need to create or remember a separate Gmail address.

Tip

This also means your clients and collaborators don’t need Gmail to use Bkper. Any email address works, as long as they link it to a Google Account using the steps above.

What Bkper accesses

When you sign in for the first time, Google asks you to authorize Bkper. This grants Bkper access to your basic profile information (name and email) to identify your account. Bkper does not access your Gmail inbox, Google Drive files, or other personal data.

Google Workspace integrations — like the Google Sheets Add-on — request their own scopes when you install them. Each integration only accesses what it needs (for example, the Sheets Add-on accesses your spreadsheets, not your email).

Permissions and collaboration

Once signed in, you can create Books and invite collaborators. Each collaborator signs in with their own Google Account and receives a permission level — Owner, Editor, Record & View, View Only, or Record Only — that controls what they can do inside the Book.
