Accepting Your Trainer's Invitation

What you'll receive

You'll get an email from EvoFit Trainer with the subject line "{Trainer Name} invited you to EvoFit". The email contains:

• A friendly intro ("Hi, your trainer wants to onboard you...").
• An optional custom message from your trainer.
• A big blue Accept Invitation button.
• A plain-text fallback link.

Check spam if you don't see it within a few minutes.

Step-by-step

If you're NEW to EvoFit (most common)

1. Click Accept Invitation in the email.
2. You land on /invite/{token}, then get redirected to /auth/register with the invite token and your email pre-filled in the URL.
3. The register form pre-fills your email and shows a banner: "You're accepting an invite from {trainer}".
4. Fill in:

• First name, last name
• Password (8+ characters)
• Tick the Terms checkbox

1. Click Sign up (or Continue with Google for one-click).
2. The system creates your account AND links you to the trainer in one atomic operation.
3. You land on /dashboard/client — you're ready to go.

If you ALREADY have an EvoFit account

1. Click Accept Invitation.
2. If you're logged in already → the API runs the link directly. You see a success toast and redirect to /dashboard.
3. If you're logged out → the page asks you to log in first. After login, the link auto-runs.

What happens next

• Your trainer's name appears on your dashboard.
• The floating green WhatsApp button shows up (if your trainer set up WhatsApp).
• You're on their roster — they'll usually message you within 24h to set expectations.

Common pitfalls

Where to find this

• Landing page: /invite/[token].
• Register page: /auth/register (token-aware since 2026-04-28 — reads inviteToken and email from the URL).
• Endpoint: POST /api/auth/register (extracts inviteToken, validates, creates TrainerClient atomically).
