Quick answer

Login failures are usually a missing verification email, a stale session cookie, a captcha loop from a VPN, or a blocked Google or Apple sign-in. Clear perplexity.ai cookies and try another sign-in method.

Most likely fix: Fix the email code

How to fix it

Try these in order — the most common fix is first.

  1. 1. Fix the email code

    1. Check spam and promotions folders
    2. Wait a few minutes instead of pressing Resend repeatedly
    3. Make sure you use the exact email used at signup

    2. Open an incognito window and sign in
    3. Disable VPN and ad blockers
    4. Try a different browser
    Did this fix it?
  3. 3. Try another sign-in method

    2. Use the same method you originally signed up with
    3. If still blocked, contact Help > Contact Support
