# Sign up

Use **Sign Up** to create a new FlowerBuddy account. Direct sign-up has two steps: the first establishes the account and the second collects business setup and optional discovery information. Sign-up from a workspace invitation uses the invitation's account path instead.

The first step keeps the account details, currency, and agreement selection together before **Next** becomes available.

## Sign up with Google

Select **Sign up with Google** and choose the Google account you want to use for FlowerBuddy. Review the prefilled name and email, complete the remaining account details, and accept the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. Google sign-up does not ask you to create a separate FlowerBuddy password in this form.

For direct sign-up, continue through **Next** and complete the business setup described below. Google sign-up still needs those business details. If the email already has a FlowerBuddy account, use the existing account instead of creating another.

If FlowerBuddy asks you to sign up with email and password to verify the address, follow that path and complete email verification. If it says your Google sign-in expired, choose Google again before continuing.

## Enter account details

For direct sign-up, enter **Email**, **Password**, **Repeat Password**, **First Name**, **Last Name**, and **Currency** on the first step. The password must be 8 to 50 characters, and **Repeat Password** must match it. Confirm the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy agreement, then select **Next**.

If you arrived through a workspace invitation, FlowerBuddy pre-fills the invitation email and does not let you replace it. This connects the new account to the email that was invited. That path does not show the direct-sign-up Currency or Company fields, and **Sign Up** replaces **Next** after the account details and agreement.

## Complete business setup

For direct sign-up, the second step asks for **Company** and includes the optional **Company website** field. It can also collect an estimated number of events, estimated revenue per event, prior floral software, and how you heard about FlowerBuddy. **Other** appears when you select it as the source. **Add a referral code** is optional.

Enter your business website in **Company website**, or leave the field blank. Invitation sign-up skips this business-setup step.

Use your own business details. For example, select a revenue range that describes your business rather than a range from an example image. The terms and privacy agreement choice appears on the first step before **Next** becomes available.

The optional discovery answers help FlowerBuddy understand how you found the product. They do not choose a workspace role, create an Event Role, or change the invitation permissions when you are signing up from an invitation.

After email-and-password sign-up, FlowerBuddy asks you to verify your email before opening the workspace. Successful Google sign-up verifies the address through Google. See [Verify your email](/reference/account-access/verify-your-email.md) for the email link, resend option, and Google verification path.
