# Create your account

> Sign up for LobbyStack with an email and password, then update your business name, email address, or password any time from account settings.

Your LobbyStack account is the starting point for everything — your AI receptionist, your phone number, your call history, and your billing. This page covers how to create an account and how to change your account details after you are signed in.

## Creating an account

<Steps>
  <Step title="Go to the sign-up page">
    Open the LobbyStack sign-up page. You can reach it from the homepage by clicking **Try for free**, or by navigating directly to the sign-up URL.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter your email and password">
    Provide the email address you want to use for your account and choose a password.

    Use a strong, unique password. LobbyStack enforces a minimum password length and complexity requirement.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Submit the form">
    Click **Sign up**. Your account is created immediately and you are taken into the onboarding flow to verify your phone number and choose a plan. Dedicated business numbers are included on Starter and Pro.

    See the [Get started guide](/quickstart) for a full walkthrough of onboarding.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Logging in

Go to the LobbyStack login page and enter your email and password. If you forget your password, click **Forgot password** on the login page. LobbyStack will send a reset code to your email address. Enter the code and choose a new password to regain access.

## Changing your account settings

Once you are signed in, go to **Settings** in the main navigation, then select **Account**. From there you can update your business name, email address, and password.

### Business name

Your business name appears in your dashboard and is used by the AI receptionist when it greets callers (unless you override the greeting with custom text).

1. In **Settings** > **Account**, find the **Business name** field.
2. Edit the name and click **Save**.

The change takes effect immediately.

### Email address

Changing your email address requires confirmation.

1. In **Settings** > **Account**, find the **Email** field.
2. Enter your new email address and click **Save**.
3. LobbyStack sends a confirmation email to the new address. Open it and click the confirmation link.
4. Your email address is updated once you confirm.

<Note>
  Until you click the link in the confirmation email, your account continues to use your original email address. Check your spam folder if the email does not arrive within a few minutes.
</Note>

### Password

1. In **Settings** > **Account**, find the **Password** section.
2. Enter your current password, then enter and confirm your new password.
3. Click **Save**.

Your session remains active after a password change. Other devices signed into your account are not automatically signed out.
