# Create an Account

Create a Demo or Live Tradeview Markets Cabinet account, verify your email, and complete the application.

Use the account-registration flow to create your Cabinet login. The flow verifies the email address before it opens the rest of the application.

<a href="https://cabinet.tradeviewmarkets.com/en/register/1/demo-account" class="button primary">Open a Demo Account</a>

## Before you begin

* Use an email address you can open now; the Cabinet sends a one-time verification code to it.
* Create a password that meets every requirement displayed on screen: at least eight characters, an uppercase letter, a lowercase letter, a number, and a special character.
* For a Live application, have your personal and verification information ready. You must provide accurate, complete information.

## Choose your Live account category

During the Live registration flow, after your personal-details and any entity-disclaimer screen, the Cabinet asks for an **Account category**. This is who will hold the account; it is separate from the trading platform and account configuration you select later.

| Account category | Choose it when                                                                         | Detailed guide                                                                                    |
| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Individual**   | You are the single account holder.                                                     | [Create a Live Individual Account](/getting-started/create-an-account/live-individual-account.md) |
| **Joint**        | You are opening the account with another person, such as a spouse or business partner. | [Create a Live Joint Account](/getting-started/create-an-account/live-joint-account.md)           |
| **Corporate**    | You are applying on behalf of an entity, business, or organization.                    | [Create a Live Corporate Account](/getting-started/create-an-account/live-corporate-account.md)   |

{% hint style="info" %}
The Cabinet only displays categories available to the selected country and Tradeview entity. If **Joint** or another category is not shown, do not choose a different category to work around it; continue only with an available category or contact Support.
{% endhint %}

## Register step by step

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Start registration

Open the registration link. On **Account Registration**, select **Demo account** or **Live account**, then select **Continue**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Enter your login details

Enter your **Email**, create a password in **Create password**, and repeat it in **Confirm password**. Check that both passwords match, then continue.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Verify your email

Open the inbox for the address you entered. Copy the one-time code from Tradeview, return to the registration page, enter it in **Verification code**, and submit it. If no code arrives, wait briefly, check spam or junk mail, then use the resend option shown on the page.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Enter registration details

Enter your full name exactly as shown on your ID. Select your country of residence and the entity presented by the Cabinet, then complete every required field. If the Cabinet displays an entity notice, read it, select its required acknowledgement, and continue.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Choose a Live account category

If you selected **Live account**, select **Individual**, **Joint**, or **Corporate** under **Account category**. Read the disclaimer, select its acknowledgement checkbox, and select **Get started**. Then follow the guide for the category you selected in the table above.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Finish and check the Cabinet

For a Demo account, complete the final screen and check the account details shown by the Cabinet. For a Live account, the category-specific application continues after sign-in; complete each required screen and document request before checking its review status.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## If the form will not continue

1. Read the message beside the field with an error.
2. Correct the field rather than opening a second registration.
3. For a password error, make sure it includes all required character types and that **Confirm password** is identical.
4. For the disclaimer error, select the acknowledgement checkbox.
5. For a verification-code error, request a new code and enter the newest code you received.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Do not create a second account just because a verification code is delayed. Use the existing registration screen and the resend option so the application stays tied to one email address.
{% endhint %}

## Continue your Live application

Choose the guide that matches the category selected in the Cabinet:

* [Live Individual Account](/getting-started/create-an-account/live-individual-account.md)
* [Live Joint Account](/getting-started/create-an-account/live-joint-account.md)
* [Live Corporate Account](/getting-started/create-an-account/live-corporate-account.md)

Use [Identity Verification](/getting-started/identity-verification.md) and [Pending and Expired Documents](/security-and-settings/pending-and-expired-documents.md) for any outstanding Cabinet request.
