# Create an account

Welcome to UserFlux! This guide will walk you through the essential first steps to get your account up and running. We will cover creating your account, verifying your email address, and setting up your billing information so you can start exploring the platform's features.

### Signing up

* If you've been invited by a team mate, sign up from the link above. Once signed up you'll have the option to join their workspace.
* If your company is just starting out with UserFlux, [you can sign up here](https://dashboard.userflux.co/signup). Follow the guide below for how to activate your workspace. 

***

### 1. Creating Your Account

First, let's create your UserFlux account. This is a straightforward process that gives you access to the dashboard.

1. Navigate to the UserFlux sign-up page.
2. Enter your **Email address** in the designated field.
3. Enter a secure **Password** for your new account.
4. Enter the same password in the **Confirm password** field.

> Your password must be a minimum of 10 characters and include at least one number to meet our security requirements.

1. Tick the checkbox to agree to the **terms of use and privacy policy**.
2. Click the **Create account** button to proceed.

### 2. Verifying Your Email Address

To ensure your account is secure and to receive important notifications, you must verify your email address.

1. After logging in for the first time, locate the notification banner at the top of the dashboard that says, "Your email address isn't verified yet".
2. Click the **Verify** button on the right-hand side of the banner.

3. A **Verify Your Email** modal will appear. Click **Send code** to have a one-time verification code sent to your registered email address.\

4. Open your email inbox and find the email from UserFlux with the subject line "Verify your email with UserFlux".
5. Copy the six-digit code provided in the email. Note simply clicking the verify email will not verify your address. You will need to get the code and verify it for security reasons.&#x20;
6. Return to the UserFlux dashboard, paste the code into the **Enter your one-time code** field, and click **Verify**.

You will see a confirmation message, and the verification banner at the top of the page will disappear. Your email is now successfully verified.

### 3. Setting Up Your Billing Information

Adding a payment method is the final step in setting up your account.

1. Navigate to the settings menu by clicking the organisation icon in the bottom-left of the sidebar.
2. Select **Billing** from the settings menu.
