One place for every new client relationship

Most agencies manage onboarding across email threads, shared Drive folders, and manual follow-ups. WelcomeGate gives each client their own branded portal — and gives your team a single view of where everyone stands.

Your clients know what to do

Each client logs in to their own branded portal and sees a clear checklist of what's needed from them — welcome steps, forms, and document uploads — organized by stage.

Documents arrive without the chase

Request specific files, and clients upload them directly to the portal. No more lost email attachments or "did you get my PDF?" messages — everything lands in one organized place.

Your team sees the full picture

The team dashboard shows every active client, their completion percentage, and which items are stuck — so you can follow up at the right moment, not on a hunch.

How it works

Built around the client experience, not your internal workflow

01 — Onboarding Checklist

A clear path forward, from day one

When a client logs in, they see exactly what's needed and what's done. You define the steps; they move through them at their own pace. Progress is visible to both sides — no status-request emails needed.

  • Steps organized by stage — welcome, setup, launch
  • Progress bar shows completion at a glance
  • Branded with your logo, not WelcomeGate's

02 — Document Collection

Documents arrive organized, not scattered

Request the exact files you need. Clients upload directly to the portal with a simple drag-and-drop — and you see the status of every document in real time, without hunting through email attachments.

  • Name the documents your clients need to provide
  • Status updates: Pending, Uploaded, Reviewing, Approved
  • Secure upload — no email attachments, no shared folders

03 — Team Dashboard

Every client's progress, without asking

The team view shows all active clients, their completion percentage, and which items have been sitting idle. Know who needs a nudge before they go quiet — not after.

  • Sortable by completion, last activity, or client name
  • Stuck items surface automatically — no manual review
  • Works alongside your existing project management setup
