Passwordless login for WordPress

Your members shouldn't need a password to come back.

Magic Link sends returning customers and members a secure, one-click login link by email — no password to forget, no reset email, no lost login. Free for WordPress; PRO adds WooCommerce, security controls, and role-based redirects.

The problem

Passwords are quietly costing you logins.

Every returning member and customer hits the same wall: a password they don't remember. Most don't reset it — they just leave.

🔑

Forgotten passwords

Users can't remember which password they used, so they never get in.

📨

Reset-email friction

The reset email lands in spam, expires, or never arrives — and the login is abandoned.

🎫

Support tickets

Every "please reset my password" is a ticket your team has to work through.

🛒

Lost sales & members

Login friction at checkout and on member sites quietly costs you repeat revenue.

The solution

What is Magic Link?

Magic Link is a free WordPress plugin that lets your users log in with a single click using a secure link sent to their email — no password to remember or reset. Each link is single-use and time-limited, works alongside your existing WordPress login, and adds WooCommerce, role-based redirects, and security controls in PRO.

How it works

From "forgot password" to logged in — in one click

Your users never create or remember a password. They ask, they click, they're in.

Why it matters

What you get out of it

A login your users don't abandon

One click from their inbox and they're in — no password wall, no reset detour.

Fewer support tickets

Cut the steady stream of "reset my password" requests your team works through every week.

Security without passwords

No reused or leaked passwords to steal. Links are single-use and expiring, with brute-force, IP and domain controls in PRO.

Fits your WordPress stack

Works alongside your existing login, with WooCommerce, EDD, membership/LMS, REST API and WP-CLI.

Why Magic Link

A better fit than the alternatives

vs. a free-only plugin

Start free with real passwordless login — then add WooCommerce, security controls and role-based redirects when you need them, without switching plugins.

vs. a SaaS auth service

No monthly per-user bill and no third party holding your users' data. Everything runs on your own WordPress server.

vs. custom development

Skip building and maintaining secure token login yourself. Install, configure in an afternoon, and get updates and support.

Free vs PRO

Free is genuinely useful. PRO is for control.

FAQ

Questions people ask before switching

Does Magic Link replace the normal WordPress login? +
No — it works alongside it. Your usual username-and-password login keeps working; Magic Link simply adds a secure one-click email login. You can also choose to make the magic link the default, but you are never locked out of the standard login.
Is passwordless login actually secure? +
Yes. Each login link is single-use and time-limited, so it stops working after it is used or after the period you set. There are no passwords to reuse or leak, and PRO adds brute-force protection, login-request throttling, IP control and domain restriction.
Do you support SMS and QR-code login? +
Not yet. Magic Link today is email-based passwordless login. SMS magic links and QR-code login are on the roadmap and clearly marked as coming soon — they are not part of the current PRO plan, so you are only paying for what ships today.
Does it work with WooCommerce? +
Yes. PRO integrates with WooCommerce checkout and My Account, so returning customers sign in with one click instead of resetting a password mid-purchase. Easy Digital Downloads is supported too.
Does it work with membership and LMS plugins? +
Yes. Magic Link works with standard WordPress accounts, so membership and LMS sites can give members frictionless passwordless access. PRO adds trusted-domain auto-provisioning and a default role for new users.
Can I control who is allowed to log in? +
Yes, in PRO. Restrict logins to approved email domains or trusted IP ranges, throttle repeated requests, and block brute-force attempts. You decide exactly who can request a link and from where.
Can I use it on multiple sites? +
Yes. Licences are available for 1, 3 or 25 sites, and every paid plan includes the full PRO feature set — you only pay for the number of sites, not for more features.
What happens if my licence lapses or I cancel? +
Nothing is deleted. The free features keep working and your settings are preserved; PRO features simply pause until you renew. You keep the plugin and can keep using the free version indefinitely.
Are updates and support included? +
Yes. Every paid plan includes updates and support for the licence term, and there is a 30-day money-back guarantee if it is not the right fit.
Will it slow my site down? +
No. Magic Link is built to be lightweight and only does work when someone requests or uses a login link. Your normal page loads are unaffected.
Where do the login links go — is my data private? +
Everything runs on your own WordPress server and links are emailed through your existing WordPress email setup. Magic Link does not send your user data to any third-party service.

Give your users a login they'll actually enjoy.

Start free on WordPress.org, and upgrade to PRO when you want WooCommerce, branded emails, and full access control.
