Deadline for SSO migration period: February 28, 2025 – Afterwards, you can only retrieve your assets via your connected Venly wallet or through our Discord Support.
GAIMIN is excited to announce a major upgrade to our ecosystem. We’re introducing a Single Sign-On (SSO) system, allowing you to access all GAIMIN platforms—gaimin.gg, gaimin.fan, and gaimin.cloud (coming soon) —with one unified account. It also gives you seamless access to our premium features like our Smart Wallet, which comes already installed in your new SSO-enabled GAIMIN account. This update will make your experience in the GAIMIN ecosystem more user-friendly, secure, and seamless, giving you one easy access point to interact with all GAIMIN platforms, products, and services.
Here’s everything you need to know about the SSO upgrade and why it’s essential to update your account by February 28, 2025.
In case you aren’t familiar, a Single Sign-On (SSO) is an identification technique that allows users to utilize a single set of login credentials to access several websites and applications. SSO makes it easier for users to authenticate, regardless of the domain, platform, or technology being used. Managing several usernames and passwords for different accounts via different databases can be resource-intensive, SSO makes it easier to manage these identities.
GAIMIN’s new Single Sign-On (SSO) also works on the same mechanism, allowing you to use a single GAIMIN account to access all our platforms. GAIMIN’s SSO also makes it possible for us to offer exciting Web3 features like the GAIMIN Smart Wallet (GSW) in a Web2 manner. So whether you’re monetizing your PC through the gaimin.gg app, engaging on our gaimin.fan platform, or exploring cloud solutions for your business on gaimin.cloud, one account, and one identity will give you access to all these.
Our CEO, Martin Speight, calls the SSO the foundation of our future innovation. In his words, he says, “We’re committed to providing our users with a simpler and safer way to navigate the GAIMIN ecosystem… The new SSO is the foundation for our future innovations.”
Upgrading to the new SSO system is simple, just follow the two simple steps below to ensure a smooth transition:
When logged in on any GAIMIN platform—gaimin.gg, gaimin.fan, or gaimin.cloud, you should have been presented with this pop-up notice, prompting you to update your account by signing up again. Please click the “Sign Up Again Now” button. Clicking this will start the signup process again on the GAIMIN platform you are currently on. If you attempt to close this popup without migrating (which we strongly advise against), you will be shown the confirmation message below.
To ensure that all your previous data is automatically migrated, please make sure you sign up again with the same email you currently use on the GAIMIN platform you are on. Using a different email address will create a new account, which won't link to your existing data on our platform.
If you don’t remember the email you used to open your current account, go to the profile section of the platform to access your account information, email included. Then go ahead and re-register for an account with these same details.
Finally, you will then be redirected to set a recovery password for your GAIMIN smart wallet. This new version of your GAIMIN account automatically comes with the GAIMIN Smart Wallet (GSW). This is the wallet through which you can send, receive, store, buy, and sell blockchain assets within the GAIMIN ecosystem.
Since GAIMIN doesn’t control nor have access to your wallet, your recovery password is the only way you can regain access to your account, in any event, you lose access to your account. Please save this password carefully, if you forget your recovery password you will lose access to your smart wallet along with the assets in it!
Once you have completed all the steps above, congrats, you will see a pop-up stating that you have successfully migrated and enabled the SSO upgrade on your GAIMIN account!
How to Succesfully Upgrade your Account and Complete the SSO Migration
One of the most exciting aspects of this upgrade to a Single Sign-On (SSO) system is the integration of the GAIMIN Smart Wallet (GSW). This wallet will:
Follow these steps:
If you fail to migrate before the deadline:
Note: As Venly is a third-party application, any asset migration related to Venly is in their jurisdiction, as GAIMIN doesn’t have access and is not responsible for any assets.
Unfortunately, the pop-up for the migration is only one-off during this phase, hence we would recommend you to complete the migration immediately and not close the pop-up migration prompt. If you cancel the pop-up without successfully migrating to the SSO account, you will only be able to migrate manually!
The migration pop-up appears only once. If you accidentally close it before successfully migrating during the automatic migration, make sure your Venly wallet is connected to your GAIMIN account and wait until after February 28, to manually retrieve your GMRX assets.
No. You must use the same email as your old GAIMIN account to ensure your account, data, and assets are successfully linked to the new SSO system.
If you use a different email than your current one, your new account will not be linked to your existing data, leading to potential access issues. If you would want to “continue from where you stopped”, make sure to sign up again using the email currently associated with your GAIMIN account.
With the new GAIMIN SSO, emails are the unique identity of each account. Hence, your email represents a particular account and can’t be changed. It’s recommended that you use your current email for the initial registration.
Before our SSO, one could technically have accounts on various GAIMIN platforms, for example on the GAIMIN app, fan platform, and Game Dev Portal. But with our SSO, that scenario has been eliminated, since its key purpose is to generate one user login detail that will be used across all GAIMIN platforms. So if you had accounts on multiple GAIMIN platforms with the same email address, upgrading your account to SSO with that email on one platform automatically updates that info on our other platforms. This means that you wouldn’t need to re-sign up on each GAIMIN platform where you had an account with that email.
If you have multiple accounts on GAIMIN with different emails, you would need to migrate your GAIMIN account for each email address. This means that you will have to complete the SSO migration separately for each of the GAIMIN accounts that you own.
If your SSO upgrade was successful, you will receive a pop-up at the end of your migration process stating that it was successful. You’ll also be able to access all GAIMIN platforms seamlessly with one SSO account, without the pop-up appearing on your account again.
The wallet recovery password allows you to regain access to your Smart Wallet if you forget your login details. GAIMIN cannot retrieve or reset this password for you, so keep it somewhere safe. Losing it could mean losing access to your wallet and its assets.
Yes. Assets linked to your Venly wallet will remain accessible even after migration, as long as your wallet was previously connected to your GAIMIN account. You may also contact our support team on Discord should you have any questions
For assistance, you can join our Discord support channel to get direct help.
If you miss the migration, assets can only be automatically retrieved by 5th March if a Venly wallet is connected to your old GAIMIN account before the deadline.
However, if you neither have a connected Venly wallet on your GAIMIN account nor migrated to the new SSO system before the February 28 deadline, you will only be able to manually retrieve your assets by reaching out to our support team via our Discord.
GAIMIN will transfer your assets to your connected Venly wallet by 5th March - kindly login to your Venly wallet to retrieve your assets. As Venly is a third-party application, we would recommend you contact Venly directly for further support.
This migration process might seem complex and stressful, but migrating during this phase makes it way easier and seamless for your accounts across GAIMIN products moving forward. If you have any questions or run into issues during the process, don’t hesitate to seek support via our Discord; we’re here to make the transition as smooth as possible for you.
