# Create an Account

When you create a PayBee account, you will be asked to enter some information related to your Organization. Only registered non-profit organizations with an EIN number can create a PayBee account. Before you start, have the following ready:

* Access to an organization's email address.
* Organization's bank account number and routing number.
* Organization's EIN (tax id), organization name, and address.
* Authorized representative details — name, date of birth, and last 4 digits of SSN (typically your treasurer or someone familiar with your transactions)

### Step by Step

**Step 1 - Sign Up** Go to https\://[paybee.io/signup.html](https://paybee.io/signup.html). Enter your organization name, email, and a password. Review the terms of service and click **Create Account**.

Back on the signup screen, select **I have verified my email** to continue. You can also resend the email or change your email address if needed.

**Step 3 — Set up your organization profile**

Enter your organization's details. You'll also choose a unique handle — a short code used in all your PayBee URLs. For example, if your org is "Spread the Love," your handle might be stl, love, or spreadthelove. Your donors will see this in links, so keep it recognizable.

**Step 4 - Connect your bank account** Enter your bank account and routing number. This is where your fundraising proceeds will be deposited after processing.
