Creating an account

You need an account to chat on Discord. Signing up takes about a minute.

1. Open the Discord homepage and choose Create an account.
2. Pick a username and a password.
3. Complete the short check that proves you're human. It runs in your browser and can take a few seconds on a phone.
4. Choose Continue and you're in.

An email address is only needed if Discord asks for one. When it does, you get a link to confirm the address.

If the page says that new accounts are closed, Discord isn't taking sign-ups right now. Accounts that already exist can still sign in.
