# Sign in to your account

> Creating an account, joining a business someone else set up, and your first password.

## If you are setting up the business

Sign up with your email address and a password. The first thing you will see
afterwards is the [setup wizard](https://sims-bae272dd.mintlify.site/getting-started/setup-wizard.md), which walks you
through creating your business and your first store.

The person who signs up becomes the **Owner** of the business. Owners can do
everything, including inviting the rest of the team.

## If someone invited you

You will get an email invitation. Open it, set your password, and you will land
in the business you were invited to — there is no setup to do. What you can see
depends on the role you were given; see [Roles and permissions](https://sims-bae272dd.mintlify.site/admin/roles.md).

## If your account was created for you

Accounts that our team provisions come with a **temporary password**. You will
be asked to change it the first time you sign in, and nothing else will work
until you do.

> [!WARNING]
>
> Until the temporary password is replaced, every action is refused. If you are
> seeing errors on a brand-new account, finish the password change first.

## Belonging to more than one business

One login can belong to several businesses — useful if you run stores under
separate companies, or if you manage sites for more than one owner. One of them
is your **default**, which is the one you land in when you sign in. Switch
between them from the account menu.

## Forgotten passwords

Use the reset link on the sign-in screen. If your email address has changed
since you were invited, an Owner needs to re-invite you.
