# Creating your account

You can sign up for Finora three ways: email and password, Microsoft, or Google. Pick whichever works best for you — they all create the same kind of account.

## Sign up with email and password

1. Go to [**finora.services**](https://finora.services) and click **Sign up**.
2. Enter your **work email**, a **display name**, and a **password**.
   * Passwords need at least 12 characters and must include letters and numbers.
3. Click **Create account**.
4. Open the verification email and click the link.

You'll be taken to the Overview dashboard the first time you sign in.

> **Tip:** Use a work email rather than a personal one. Your account, dashboards, and alerts are tied to this address — if it changes, you may lose access.

## Sign up with Microsoft

1. On the sign-in page, click **Continue with Microsoft**.
2. Sign in with your work or school account.
3. If asked, approve the basic profile and email permissions.

If you don't see the **Continue with Microsoft** button, your workspace administrator hasn't enabled Microsoft sign-in yet. Ask them to set it up.

## Sign up with Google

1. On the sign-in page, click **Continue with Google**.
2. Choose the Google account you want to use.
3. Approve the basic profile and email permissions.

If you don't see the **Continue with Google** button, your administrator hasn't enabled Google sign-in.

## What you get when you sign up

A new account starts on the **Trial** plan. The first 7 days are populated with sample data so you can explore every screen — Overview, KPIs, Reports, Forecast — before any real cost data is pulled in.

| On the Trial plan you get |                            |
| ------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| Connected providers       | up to 2                    |
| Cost history              | last 7 days                |
| Budget rules              | up to 2                    |
| Saved views               | 1                          |
| Refresh frequency         | once a day                 |
| Slack notifications       | not available — email only |

To unlock more, upgrade in **Settings → Billing & Subscription**. See [Plans & Billing](/account/plans-and-billing.md) for the full comparison.

## Forgot your password

1. On the sign-in page, click **Forgot password**.
2. Enter your account email.
3. Open the reset email and click the link (it expires after 30 minutes).
4. Pick a new password.

## Deleting your account

To permanently delete your account, email [**support@finora.services**](mailto:support@finora.services) from the email tied to your account. We'll confirm with you, then remove all your data — your costs, tags, dashboards, alerts, and saved keys. Past invoices are kept for legal and tax reasons.
