You can invite anyone with a company, or personal, email address or mobile number through the Admin Portal. Emails and mobile numbers are unique to each account. Once an account has been invited it can be reinvited at any time but only once per hour.

Note: Once your account has been deleted, you can create a new Blink account using the same email address at any time.

How to reset a Blink camera that is already registered? ›

If your Blink Sync Module is already registered, the only way to settle it would be to remove the last account: If the last account is linked to someone else (e.g., the Blink Sync Module was gifted), get in touch with the previous owner and kindly ask them to remove the device from their Blink Home Monitor app.
