# How to create your workspace

> Go to the Jogan homepage, pick a plan, fill in your name, email, password, workspace name and workspace address, then click the verification link in your email. Your workspace opens at its own address with a free trial running. No card is needed.

A workspace is your business's private space in Jogan. It has its own address, for example `yourbusiness.jogan.cloud`, and everything your team records lives inside it. Creating one takes about a minute.

## What you need

- An email address you can open right now (the verification link is sent there).
- A name for the workspace, usually your business name.
- A short address for it: lowercase letters, digits and hyphens, such as `rahman-foods`.

## Steps

1. Open the Jogan homepage and click **Start free**. If you scroll to the pricing section and choose a plan there (monthly or yearly), the sign-up form remembers it and your trial will be of that plan. See [Pricing and plans](https://jogan.cloud/help/pricing-and-plans).
2. Enter **Your name**, your **Email** and a **Password**. The password needs at least 8 characters, an uppercase letter and a symbol.
3. Jogan checks the email address as you leave the field. Disposable, invalid or role addresses such as `info@` are refused; use a real, personal mailbox. The **Create workspace** button stays disabled until the check finishes.
4. Enter the **Workspace name** and the **Workspace address**. Some addresses are reserved by the platform (for example `admin`, `help`, `app`); pick another if yours is refused.
5. Click **Create workspace**. You will see an "Almost there" screen.
6. Open the verification email and click the link. It is valid for 24 hours. Clicking it activates the workspace and signs you in on your own address.

## After you are in

- If you chose a plan on the homepage, its free trial has already started. Otherwise you are asked to **choose your plan** on first sign-in; picking one starts a free trial of it. See [How the free trial works](https://jogan.cloud/help/free-trial-explained).
- Your account is the workspace's first **Admin**.
- A short guided tour highlights each part of the sidebar. You can replay it any time from the book icon in the top bar. See [Where to find help inside the app](https://jogan.cloud/help/help-inside-the-app).

## Recommended first hour

1. [Add your items](https://jogan.cloud/help/add-your-items), or [import them from Excel](https://jogan.cloud/help/import-from-excel).
2. [Set up recipes](https://jogan.cloud/help/set-up-a-recipe) for the things you make.
3. [Record opening stock](https://jogan.cloud/help/record-opening-stock) so the ledger matches the shelf.
4. [Add your team](https://jogan.cloud/help/add-team-members).
5. [Record your first sale](https://jogan.cloud/help/record-a-sale).

## Can I have more than one workspace?

Yes. Each workspace is separate, with its own address, team and data. Sign up again with a different workspace address. The same email can be the admin of more than one workspace.

## The email did not arrive

On the **"Almost there"** screen after sign-up, click **Resend email** for a fresh link (each lasts 24 hours). Check spam first, then see [The verification email has not arrived](https://jogan.cloud/help/verification-email-not-arriving).
