Setting up a Unipass Identity

Before an adviser firm user can be added to the platform, they must first register for a Unipass Identity.

To register at  www.unipass.co.uk.


  • Once registered, users can collect a Unipass identity, certificate, or user ID/passphrase to access the platform.
  • The Unipass portal can be used to manage their password, certificate, and MFA options.

How to create a new user

You can set up a new adviser with the online form accessed via the Request Centre.


  • If you want to give the adviser access to the platform, supply their email address and select the appropriate level of access.
  • Make sure the user sets up a Unipass identity if they don't already have one
  • Set their permissions to allow them to view clients (see the permissions section below).

Adding a non-adviser user to Wrap

Navigate to “Dashboard” – menu > user and access > user management > new user

  1. Complete all primary fields marked with a*.
  2. Ensure you enter the correct email address for the user.
  3. Save account, this will create a new user.

Risk warning

The value of investments can go down as well as up, and the investor could get back less than was paid in. Laws and tax rules may change in the future. Personal circumstances and where the investor lives in the UK will also have an impact on tax treatment.
