Log In to the Admin Area
The WHMCS Admin Area lets you configure WHMCS, manage orders, work with clients and their services, and perform many more actions while running your business.
- Before the first admin logs in for the first time, you must finish the installation process and configure the WHMCS cron job.
- If you experience problems logging in, you can request a password reset. If problems continue, the system may ban your IP address due to multiple failed login attempts.
