# Sign Up After a Brand Invites You
When a brand invites you to their program, you sign up on a page that the brand controls. Their logo, cover image, and description appear on it. If the brand hasn't uploaded their own assets, impact.com default branding appears instead.
Creating your account takes three steps.
## Before you start
| What you need | Notes |
| ---------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
| The invitation link from the brand | Sent by email, or shared with you directly |
| An email address, or a Google or Apple account | Determines how you sign in from then on |
| A mobile number | Receives your verification code |
## Create your account
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
### Accept the brand's terms and choose how to sign up
1. Select the link to the brand’s agreement. The contract opens in a separate tab, where you can read the payout details, schedule, qualified activity, and general terms.
2. If the brand uses custom terms, select the additional PDF link and review it.
3. Select the  **\[Checkbox]** to agree to the brand's terms.
{% hint style="success" icon="circle-info" %}
**Two agreements apply:** The brand's terms cover your work with that brand. The impact.com Partner Program Agreement covers your use of the platform. You accept it in the final step.
{% endhint %}
4. Choose how to sign up:
{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Google or Apple" %}
Select **Continue with Google** or **Continue with Apple**, then follow the prompts to authorize the connection.
{% endtab %}
{% tab title="Email" %}
1. Select **Continue with Email**, then enter your email address, first name, last name, password, and mobile number.
2. Select **Continue**.
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Verify your mobile number
1. On the *Verify Your Mobile Number* screen, enter the code you receive.
* Depending on your country, the code arrives by SMS or by email.
2. Select **Continue**. If nothing arrives, select **Resend code**.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Confirm your account details
Check these fields before you continue:
| Field | What to check |
| -------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| *Account name* | Your own name if you’re an individual, or your company name if you’re an organization. The brand sees this name. |
| *Country* | Where you operate |
| *Timezone* | Affects the dates on your reports |
| *Currency* | Affects how you get paid |
{% hint style="success" icon="circle-info" %}
**Note:** Your currency can’t be changed after you create your account, so make sure it’s correct before you continue.
{% endhint %}
1. On the *Fill out your account details* screen, check your *Account name*, *Country*, *Timezone*, and *Currency*. Your country, timezone, and currency are pre-filled from your IP address. Your account name comes from the name you entered, unless that name is already in use.
2. Select the  **\[Checkbox]** to accept the *Partner Program Agreement*.
3. Set your email preference.
4. Select **Continue**.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
## What happens next
A *Hang tight* screen appears while your account is created. Your [application checklist](/partner/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/getting-started/complete-your-application-checklist.md) opens next, named after the brand that invited you.
The brand receives your application after you complete every step of the checklist.
## Additional resources
* [Complete Your Application Checklist](/partner/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/getting-started/complete-your-application-checklist.md) — Build your profile and answer the brand's survey so the brand receives your application.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://help.impact.com/partner/what-would-you-like-to-learn-about/getting-started/sign-up-after-a-brand-invites-you.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
