A login and registration plugin for the Hellō service.
Provide your users registration and login using their choice of popular social login, email, or phone. No need for you to configure your application at each provider or pay for a premium plugin.
Hellō Login verifies your users’ email addresses so you don’t have to. No longer do they have to manage another username and password to use your site.
Hellō is a cloud identity wallet cooperatively operated with a mission to empower users to control their identity. Learn more at hello.coop.
- Hellō Login installs with Hellō Quickstart to get you up and running in 7 clicks.

Hellō has a freemium business model where basic claims such as login, verified email, and profile data is free. In the future we will have premium claims such as verified name, age, citizenship, residency, affiliations, and entitlements.
