# Create your VoxBot account

Create your VoxBot account with Google, Discord, or email, then connect your first streaming channel and prepare it to receive chat commands.

Your VoxBot account keeps your connected channels, TTS commands, playback settings, moderation, tipping setup, and team access together.

## Sign up

1. Open <https://vox.bot/login>.
2. Select **Sign up**.
3. Select **Google** or **Discord** to use a connected sign-in.

To use email instead:

1. Enter your email address under **Email**.
2. Enter a password under **Password**. The password must contain at least eight characters and one number.
3. Enter the password again under **Confirm password**.
4. Select **Create account**.

If VoxBot sends a confirmation email, open the link in the email.

## Set up your VoxBot account

After you sign in for the first time, VoxBot shows three setup choices.

* Select **Link New Account** to connect the first channel that you stream on.
* Select **Join a Team** if another VoxBot user gave you an invite code.
* Select **Skip for now** if you want to look around first. VoxBot cannot receive chat until you connect a streaming channel.
