# What's changing Starting Monday, Sept. 28, the State Bar of Wisconsin will switch to a redesigned WisBar Marketplace. The update focuses on search and discovery, event registration, checkout flow, member pricing, personalized recommendations, and mobile usability.
# Why it matters to members and customers
# New login process now, single sign-on later The Marketplace uses a new authentication system (Auth0). For the initial launch you may need to set a new password for the Marketplace account even if you already have a WisBar.org login. To set the password, use the "Don't remember your password?" link on the Marketplace sign-in screen. You must have a valid email address on file with your State Bar account to receive reset instructions.
# Practical steps for users
- Ensure the email address on your State Bar account is current so you can receive password reset instructions.
- Books UnBound users do not need to change passwords for the Marketplace at launch.
- If you run into issues, use the Contact Us page on WisBar.org for support.
# What to expect functionally The announcement highlights five primary benefits: better search and filtering, easier event registration, automatic member pricing, modern mobile-friendly shopping and checkout, and personalized recommendations. The Marketplace will offer wish lists and a more modern, accessible design.
# Timing and availability The new Marketplace goes live Sept. 28. During the interim period before SSO is enabled (planned for late October), users will have separate credentials for WisBar.org and the new Marketplace unless they use Books UnBound credentials.
# Where to get help If you experience login or purchase problems, use the Contact Us page on WisBar.org. The Marketplace and WisBar resources will continue to exist as separate systems until SSO is implemented.
# Bottom line Expect a smoother shopping and registration experience after Sept. 28, but be prepared to set a new Marketplace password through the provided reset flow unless you use Books UnBound. Update your account email and contact WisBar support if you need help.
