Create your account
A Stackly account is free to start, and you don't need a card. New accounts get a 7-day free trial (see plans, limits and your free trial).
Sign up with your email
- Go to the Stackly sign-up page and make sure the Sign Up tab is selected.
- Type your Full Name and Work Email.
- Choose a Password: at least 8 characters, with 1 capital letter (A–Z) and 1 number (0–9), and no spaces. The bar under the box turns green when all three are met.
- Click Get Started for Free.
- You go to the Sign In page. Check your inbox for the Stackly welcome email and click Activate Your Account.
Sign up with Google or GitHub
- On the sign-up or sign-in page, under or continue with, click Google or GitHub.
- Pick your account in the window that opens.
You're signed in straight away. Your email is already verified, so you can skip the next step.
Verify your email
Until your email is verified, most buttons and the left menu are locked. A strip at the top of your dashboard says Verify your email to unlock every feature.
- Click Send verification email in that strip.
- Open the email from Stackly and click Activate Account.
- Come back to Stackly and refresh the page.
No email? Check your spam folder, then click Resend email.
Sign in
- Open the Sign In tab.
- Type your Email address and Password.
- Tick Keep me signed in if this is your own device. You stay signed in for 7 days instead of 1.
- Click Sign In.
Reset a forgotten password
- On the sign-in page, click Forgot password?
- Type your Email address and click Send Reset Link.
- Open the email and click the link. It works for 15 minutes.
- Type a new Password and Confirm Password, then click Update Password.
- Sign in with your new password.
Good to know
- Email addresses with a "+" in them (like
name+shop@gmail.com) can't be used to sign up. - Joining a teammate's workspace? Use the invite link in your email instead of signing up. See team members.
- Made a short link on the Stackly homepage before you had an account? Sign up from its Keep it prompt and the link is saved to your new account.
Troubleshooting
- "Already exist. Please login." → You already have an account with this email. Sign in, or reset your password.
- "It looks like you registered with Google or GitHub" → Sign in with the same button you used to sign up. To add a password too, see password and security.
- The reset link doesn't work → Links last 15 minutes. Ask for a new one.
- "Account is not verified" → Send the verification email again from the dashboard and click the link inside.
