Discord and email login

Your PGAN account can sign in with Discord, with an email and password, or both. Alerts are Discord DMs, so a paid account needs Discord linked either way.

1 Signing in

At pogoalerts.net/login, tap Continue with Discord, or type your username or email and your password and tap Sign In.

  • Forgot your password? Tap Forgot password? and we'll email you a reset link.
  • Told to verify your email first? Resend Verification Email appears under that message. Type your email, not your username, then check your spam folder.
  • A Discord account can be linked to only one PGAN account. We never ask for your Pokémon GO login.

3 Signed up with Discord? Add a password

On the Security tab, Add Email & Password gives you a backup way in. After that, Unlink Discord appears, but unlinking on a paid plan stops your DMs.

4 Two accounts

Usually one account has your Discord and the other has your email. You can merge them yourself.

  1. Sign in with Discord and open the Security tab.
  2. In Add Email & Password, enter the other account's email and a new password (8 or more characters, mixed types).
  3. When it asks whether that email is your other account, enter that account's password, tap Merge that account into this one and confirm.

The other account's subscription, tokens and payment history move across, credit balances add up, and the other account is retired.

The merge is refused if both accounts have a live plan (even one set to cancel), both have Discord linked, or they pay through different Stripe or PayPal customers. Open a ticket in Discord or email [email protected] for those.

5 What Discord shares with us

  • Identify: your username, avatar and Discord ID, so we can show your name and send your alerts.
  • Email: your Discord email, so a Discord sign-in can find an account you made with that email.
  • Server membership: whether you're in the PGAN server and your roles there, and the right to add you to it when you link, because our bots can only DM people in the server.

We can't read your messages, see your friends or look at your other servers.

6 Let our bots DM you

Discord only lets a bot DM you when you share a server with it.

  1. Join the PGAN Discord server and stay in it.
  2. In Discord, tap the server name, open Privacy Settings and turn Direct Messages on.
  3. Don't block any of the PGAN Alerter bots. Alerts come from PGAN Alerter 1, 2, 3 and up.

7 Deleting your account

Tap Request account deletion at the bottom of the Security tab, then Send request. Cancel your plan first. It's done within 30 days, and payment records are kept because we're required to keep them.
