# Create an account

> How to sign up and verify your account on openp.ai

## Open the sign-up page

Go to [https://openp.ai](https://openp.ai) and click the **Sign up** button in the top-right corner.

## Choose a sign-in method

OpenPAI supports the following identity sources — pick any one:

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Email" icon="envelope">
    Enter an email + password; the system sends a verification code to your inbox.
  </Card>

  <Card title="GitHub OAuth" icon="github">
    Sign in with one click using your GitHub account — no separate password to manage.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Telegram" icon="telegram">
    Bind Telegram by scanning a QR code with the official OpenPAI bot.
  </Card>

  <Card title="LinuxDO" icon="linux">
    Sign in via OAuth with a LinuxDO forum account.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

<Tip>Multiple sign-in methods can be bound to the **same account**: just add others under Console → Profile settings → Linked accounts.</Tip>

## Invite code (optional)

If you arrived via someone's invite link, the invite code is filled in automatically at sign-up and you receive bonus credit.
You can also register without an invite code — it doesn't affect usage.

## Finish signing up

After signing up successfully:

1. The system grants you a **new-user trial credit** (the exact amount is shown on the sign-up page).
2. You're redirected to the **console home**, where you can view your quota, create tokens and browse models.

## FAQ

  <Accordion title="Forgot password">
    Click **Forgot password** on the sign-in page and enter your registered email to receive a reset link.

  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can one account sign in on multiple devices?">
    Yes. Multiple devices share the same account's quota, and tokens can be used across endpoints.
    For better security, enable Passkey / TOTP under **Profile settings → Two-factor authentication (2FA)**.
