Setting up a third-party login for OpenTable gives your Bench bookkeeping team access to your OpenTable Merchant Portal. This allows your bookkeeper to download payout reports and transaction details on your behalf so you don't have to manually pull and upload them each month.

1. An OpenTable account

2. The email address provided by your bookkeeper (formatted as thirdpartylogins+business.name@bench.co)

10. Once you’ve clicked ’Activate,’ we will receive an email to set a password and sign in to your account

To complete the third party login, we need to finalize the connection within 24 hours. Please let your bookkeeper know through the message feed once you have completed the instructions above.

I'm not sure what to use for the email address.
Replace your.business.name with your actual business name, no spaces. For example, if your business is Maple Goods, the email would be thirdpartylogins+maple.goods@bench.co. Your bookkeeper can confirm the exact format.
