There are two related web addresses employees should know:
| Purpose | URL |

Both are accessible on any secure desktop, iOS, or Android device.
Fix Train with Mable Login Problem
Most login failures happen for one of three reasons: an incorrect Employee ID format, an expired or forgotten password, or an account that hasn’t been activated yet. Here’s how to fix each one.
1. Check Your Sign-In ID Format
Your username depends on which part of the business you work in:
- Retail employees (pub, bar, and restaurant staff):
employeeid@mymab.org— drop any leading zeros. Example: employee number 007864567 becomes7864567@mymab.org. - RSC (Retail Support Centre) employees:
MABuserID@mbplc.com
If you type your ID incorrectly, you’ll see: “This username may be incorrect. Make sure you typed it correctly. Otherwise, contact your admin.” Double-check the format above before contacting anyone.
2. Reset a Forgotten Password
- Go to https://trainwithmable.com/ in any supported browser.
- Click the Reset your Password button.
- You’ll be redirected to the M&B Plc iWelcome portal (mbplc.iwelcome.com).
- Enter your Employee ID and click Send password reset.
- Check the email address you registered during account activation for a reset link.
Didn’t get the email?
- Check your junk/spam folder first.
- Confirm your Employee ID has no leading zeros and re-submit.
- If it still doesn’t arrive, ask your General Manager (GM) to log an incident on your behalf through the Mable training service desk.
3. Activate Your Account (Retail Team Members)
Account activation is required for new retail staff signing in for the first time.
- Open https://trainwithmable.com/.
- Click Activate Account.
- Complete the three-step process: identification (enter your Employee ID) → verification (confirm the link/code sent to your registered email) → set password.
- Once confirmed, your account is active and you can sign in immediately.
4. Sign In via Microsoft / Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
For the daily-use portal at app.trainwithmable.com, most employees now sign in through a Microsoft-based single sign-on flow:
- Visit https://app.trainwithmable.com/.
- Choose Login with Mitchells & Butlers Account.
- You’ll be redirected to the Microsoft sign-in page — enter your
employeeid@mymab.org(retail) orUserID@mbplc.com(RSC) and your password. - If prompted, complete multi-factor authentication — an SMS code, an emailed code, or an approval through the Microsoft Authenticator app.
- Not receiving your MFA code? Confirm your registered phone number is correct, check spam for email codes, and use the Authenticator app if it’s available on your account.
- You’ll land on your personal Mable training dashboard.

5. Admin & Lease Business Login
Managers logging in under the Admin & Lease Business option:
- Go to the trainwithmable.com homepage and scroll to the bottom.
- Click the Admin login button, then enter your admin username and password.
- To reset an admin/lease business password, use the password reset link located just below the Admin & Lease Business login button.
Things to Check Before You Try Logging In
Doing these first solves a surprising number of “can’t log in” tickets before you even need a password reset:
- Clear your browser’s cookies and cache.
- Use an up-to-date browser (Chrome, Edge, or Safari).
- Disable browser extensions that may interfere with the login form.
- Try an Incognito/Private window — this is the most reliable quick fix.
- Avoid logging in on a shared or public computer.
- Confirm your keyboard/system keys are working correctly before typing credentials.
- Never share your login details with anyone else.
- Make sure you’re on the correct, employer-provided URL — trainwithmable.com — and not a lookalike site.
