You have put the different types of users in different table ?
That's weird and it's not the usual logic.
Have you any reason not to have roles table and for example add a role_id to the users table ?

Manage the system with multi auth guard...

@mutaz You don’t need multiple tables. A user is a user. Use roles to determine what a user can and cannot do based on their role(s).

@mutaz I don’t understand why you don’t think “multiple types” of users can use the system if there was a single users table, and your users had roles? You would just check roles instead of horrible, multiple guards logic.
Route::middleware('auth')->group(function () {
// Front-end routes that all authenticated users can access...
});
Route::middleware('auth', 'role:moderator')->group(function () {
// Moderators routes that only moderators can access...
});
Route::middleware('auth', 'role:admin')->group(function () {
// Admin routes that only administrators can access...
});
You don’t need multiple users tables at all.
