# Creating an account
You can create a free account anytime without choosing a paid plan. With this account, you can build your own team and invite other members to work together.
{% hint style="warning" %}
**If you are hoping to join a team**, use the link that was emailed to you from the team owner. Do not create a new account from the registration page. One account can only belong to one team.
{% endhint %}
To start, head to our Sign Up page. Create an account with your work email and new password with at least 8 characters. Alternatively, you can sign up with Google for a password-less sign in experience.
After creating an account, you are invited to tell us a bit more about you. This allows us to build a product and experience that suits your needs.
You are then required to build your team’s profile. This will be used when inviting teammates.
{% hint style="success" %}
And that’s it! You have successfully created a new account on ChatMonster. Next up, you should [connect your chat channels](https://www.notion.so/Adding-managing-channels-c3cd1807bd9d48aea5b6118ef0bb28d7) and [invite your teammates](https://www.notion.so/Expanding-your-team-922c915518634564b2b1ca26f17f1319) to work together!
