Both portals and kits can be shared, but they serve different purposes. Here's how to decide which to use.
Share a kit directly when:
You can share your content with a public (or password protected) link
Your audience only needs access to one kit
You want a simple, direct link to specific content
You're sharing a one-off resource
Use a portal when:
You need to share private content with your team that has Lingo accounts
You need to share multiple kits together
You want to create a branded landing page experience
Different audiences need access to different kit combinations
You need to manage team member access to groups of kits
You want to organize content for specific groups (internal teams, agencies, clients, regions)
Common portal use cases
Internal teams - Give your marketing team access to brand assets, templates, and guidelines all in one place.
External partners - Create a public (or password protected) portal for your agency with only the kits they need.
Regional teams - Set up portals with region-specific compliance materials and localized assets.
Product lines - Organize kits by product so teams can find what they need quickly.
The simple rule
One kit to share? Share the kit directly.
Multiple kits for an audience? Create a portal.
