Create account

To create a Cloudflare account:

1. Go to the Sign up page ↗.
2. Enter your Email and Password.
3. Select Create Account.

Once you create your account, Cloudflare will automatically send an email to your address to verify that email address.

If you are creating an account for your team or a business, we recommend choosing an email alias or distribution list for your Email, such as [email protected].

This email address is the main point of contact for your Cloudflare billing, usage notifications, and account recovery.

Once you set up an account, you have several ways to interact with Cloudflare.

If you prefer working without code, you can manage your account and domain settings through the Cloudflare dasard ↗.

Note

If your domain was added to Cloudflare by a hosting partner, manage your DNS records via the hosting partner.

For those who prefer to interact with Cloudflare programmatically, you can use several methods:
