The invitation link is valid for 14 days from the time it is created. It will then expire and you will need to create a new one if necessary.
{% endhint %}

#### Invite someone by email, who does not have a Ninchat account

If the invitee does not have a user account on Ninchat yet, the invitation will be sent via email. The person can follow the instructions in the section "How to create account?" below.

{% endcontent-ref %}

#### Invite an existing Ninchat user

If the invitee is already a Ninchat user or an agent, the invitation link can be sent/copied to him/her as a private message. Instead of entering the email address, you can enter the agent username in the "Search" field.
