* Sign up however you'd like — enter your email address and choose a password, or sign up in one click using one of our sign-in partners.

* Land on your Dashboard — the home base where you'll create, organize, and manage every Simplebooklet you build.


### What you get with a free account

Every new account starts on the free plan. It's a no-pressure way to try things out and share your first Simplebooklet:

* **Two active Simplebooklets** you can create, update, and replace whenever you'd like.

* **Six months of sharing or up to 1,000 opens** — whichever comes first. After that, upgrade to keep sharing.

* **Professional presentation** with polished designs and dozens of page-flip transitions that recreate the feel of your print collateral.

* **Page enhancements** like links, popups, and animations to drive engagement.

* **A customizable weblink** you can personalize for easier sharing.

* **Your favourite creation tools** — connect directly with Canva, Adobe Express, and InDesign.

* **An ad-free experience** — no third-party ads shown to your audience.

When you're ready for more — your own logo, custom domains, unlimited sharing, paywalls, team accounts, and deeper analytics — you can upgrade to a paid plan starting at $5/month billed annually.


### First stop: your Dashboard

When you first create your account, your Dashboard opens directly to the **Resources** tab. Before you start uploading, it's worth spending a few minutes here:

* **Recommended Next Steps** — Quick, tactical ideas like supercharging a PDF, making your pages clickable, or exporting your Simplebooklet as a video. Each card includes a short video walkthrough and a Learn More link.

* **Suggested Guides** — Deeper reads like *Meet Simplebooklet* and *Audience Journey* that explain how readers move through your content and what makes it work.

These are the fastest way to get your bearings — and pick up tips most users don't discover for weeks.


### A few tips for setup

* **Use a business email** if you're planning to use Simplebooklet for work. It makes it easier to add teammates later through team accounts.

* **Start with your most-shared document** — making a Simplebooklet from a PDF or design you already use regularly is the fastest way to feel the difference.

* **Set your display name and profile photo** in Account settings so your Simplebooklets look polished from the start.
