Eeps! Looks like something didn’t go quite right with the invitation link or QR code you used. Don’t worry — this usually has an easy fix. Try the options below to get back on track.


First, check who shared the link

If you received the invite from a colleague, team lead, or organization:

  • Reach out to them directly to confirm the link or QR code is correct

  • It’s possible that an outdated or incorrect invitation was shared

This is the fastest fix in most cases.


New to JouleBug? Use an Access Code instead

If this is your first time using JouleBug:

  1. Download the JouleBug app from the App Store or Google Play

  2. Open the app and follow the steps to create your profile

  3. When asked, enter the Access Code that was shared with you

Don’t have an Access Code yet? Contact the person or organization inviting you and ask them to share one.

Once you download the app, open it and accept the Privacy Policy. Then create your participant account. If your organization does not use SSO or domain-based verification, an access code will be requested after you set your password.


Already a JouleBug user?

If you already have the app:

  • Make sure you’re logged into the correct account

  • Try opening the invitation link again from your mobile device

  • If the issue persists, confirm the invite is still active with the person who sent it


Are you an administrator?

If you’re the one sharing the invitation and it’s not working as expected, we’re happy to help.

Email us at support@joulebug.com and include:

  • The type of invitation you’re sharing

    • General “join organization” link, or

    • A link tied to a specific challenge

  • Where the link or QR code is being shared (email, intranet, slide deck, etc.)

A member of our team will take it from there.


Still stuck?

If none of the options above resolve the issue, reach out to support@joulebug.com and we’ll help you get connected.
