# Sign Up for AgencyHandy: Create Your Agency Workspace

> Learn how to register your AgencyHandy account, verify your email, configure your agency type, and land on your agency dashboard for the first time.

Signing up for AgencyHandy takes just a few minutes. You'll create your account, choose a unique workspace name that becomes your agency's sub-domain, verify your email address, and complete a short onboarding flow so the platform is tailored to your agency from the start.

<Note>
  Before you begin, make sure you have access to the email inbox you'll register with — you'll need it to verify your account during setup.
</Note>

## Create Your Account

<Steps>
  <Step title="Go to the sign-up page">
    Open your browser and navigate to [app.agencyhandy.com/sign-up](https://app.agencyhandy.com/sign-up). On the homepage, click **Get Started for Free** to reach the registration form.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Fill in your registration details">
    Complete all required fields in the sign-up form:

    | Field              | What to enter                                         |
    | ------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------- |
    | **Email ID**       | A valid email address you can access for verification |
    | **First Name**     | Your given name                                       |
    | **Last Name**      | Your family name                                      |
    | **Password**       | A strong password meeting the requirements below      |
    | **Workspace Name** | A unique identifier for your agency (see rules below) |

    **Password requirements:**

    * At least 8 characters long
    * Contains at least one uppercase letter
    * Contains at least one lowercase letter
    * Contains at least one number
    * Contains at least one special character (e.g. `!`, `@`, `#`)
    * Must not contain spaces or whitespace

    **Workspace name rules:**

    * Lowercase letters and numbers only
    * Hyphens (`-`) are allowed between characters
    * Minimum 3 characters
    * No spaces or uppercase letters

    <Tip>
      Choose your workspace name carefully — it becomes part of your agency's sub-domain and represents your brand. For example, a workspace named `bright-agency` will form the basis of your unique AgencyHandy URL.
    </Tip>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Agree to the Data Privacy Policy">
    Tick the checkbox to confirm you agree to AgencyHandy's **Data Privacy Policy**. You cannot proceed without accepting this.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Submit the registration form">
    Click the **Sign Up** button. AgencyHandy will create your account and immediately send a verification email to the address you provided.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Verify your email address">
    Open the verification email in your inbox. It contains a unique verification code. Return to the AgencyHandy verification page, enter the code in the designated field, and click **Continue**.

    <Note>
      If the email doesn't appear within a few minutes, check your spam or junk folder. If the verification code has expired, click **Resend Code** on the verification page to receive a fresh one.
    </Note>

    Once AgencyHandy accepts the code, your account is confirmed and you'll see a success message.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set up your agency details">
    After verification, a short onboarding questionnaire helps AgencyHandy tailor your experience:

    1. **Agency type** — Select the category that best describes your agency (e.g., marketing, design, development, consulting).
    2. **Agency usage** — Answer a brief question about how you intend to use AgencyHandy.
    3. **Team size** — Choose the number of people currently on your team.
    4. **Referral source** — Select how you heard about AgencyHandy.

    Click **Next** after each screen to move through the flow.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Land on your Agency Dashboard">
    After completing the onboarding steps, AgencyHandy redirects you to your **Company Home Dashboard**. Your workspace is now live and ready to use.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Sign Up with Google

If you prefer not to create a separate password, you can register using your Google account instead.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Click 'Continue with Google'">
    On the sign-up page, click the **Continue with Google** button.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select your Google account">
    Choose the Google account you want to associate with AgencyHandy and grant the requested permissions.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Complete onboarding">
    AgencyHandy creates your account using your Google profile details. You'll still be guided through the agency type and team size onboarding steps before landing on your dashboard.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  If you sign up with Google, use the **Continue with Google** button every time you log in — your Google email becomes your primary login identity.
</Tip>

## Important Notes

<Warning>
  Your workspace name cannot be changed later without contacting support. Make sure it accurately represents your agency before you submit.
</Warning>

* Use a strong, unique password and store it in a password manager.
* The verification code sent to your email may expire after a short time. If it does, request a new one using **Resend Code**.
* The onboarding questions do not lock you into specific features — they simply personalise your initial dashboard view.
* Once you land on the dashboard, you can immediately start adding clients, creating services, and building your first proposal.
