How to access and log on to my account?
You can access your InterLeukun account on any device. Just visit InterLeukin official website and type in your registered email and password.
What happens if I forgot my password?
Click forgot password on the login page and a reset password link will be sent to your registered email. If you still have trouble logging in after resetting your password, you may contact us directly and we will assist you with your concern.
What should I do if my account has been suspended?
The account suspension may happen temporarily if you failed to supply the correct username or password for a maximum of five attempts while trying to log on to your account. Temporary account suspension can be prevented by clicking the forgot password before reaching the maximum attempts. This way we can rule out if there are potentially malicious activities or attempts to breach account security.
Another reason for account suspension is when there are multiple violations committed by the user (e.g. delayed delivery on multiple occasions, abusive account users, delayed payments, etc.). The user will be notified through email or phone call in a considerable amount of time to resolve the issue prior to account suspension.
How to navigate through the platform?
For first-time users, upon successful sign-up and completing all the necessary documentation, legalities, and verification processes, one of our representatives will schedule a one-on-one online tutorial at your most convenient time to explain the functionalities on how to use the platform efficiently. In cases where queries may arise after the training session is complete, you can contact us directly or send an email to support@interim.interleukin.co, and we will be more than happy to assist you in any way possible.
