Add-on summary

Securely share access to online accounts with colleagues, family, and friends without revealing your password. AccessURL gives you a secure URL that shares your online account, lets you control how long you want to share your account for, and lets you revoke access later.

AccessURL also lets you securely ask for access to websites via URL or email. The other person can share their account in one-click, without revealing their password.

Use AccessURL to:

  • Share your Facebook account with your friend, without telling her your username and password
  • Get your friend to proofread that paper you're writing
  • Let your colleague send that email for you
  • and so much more

Security is very important. That's why AccessURL encrypts session data with AES-256. That's also why AccessURL lets you set an expiration on Access URLs.

Only send Access URLs to people you personally know and trust. Only use it for websites which allow you to share accounts.

You can also use AccessURL to ask for access to websites from someone you know.
