# [Create your account and organization](https://rebilder.com/help/getting-started/create-account-organization)

> Sign up, name your organization, add your first store, and copy the API key when it appears, because it is shown exactly once.

## Create your account

1. Go to rebilder.com/signup and enter your email and a password (at least 8 characters, including a number).
2. Open the confirmation email and click the link, which signs you in to the Console.
3. Prefer no password? On the login page, use “Email me a magic link” instead.

## Step 1: Your organization

The first time you open the Console you land on “Get started”, a two-step setup. Step 1 asks for an organization name, usually your company or store brand. Stores, API keys, and (later) teammates all hang off this organization.

## Step 2: Your first store

Step 2 asks for your store’s domain (like `shop.example.com`) and its platform: Shopify, Next.js, or Custom / other. Submitting creates the store and issues its API key in one go.

> If you see “That domain is already registered to another organization”, someone has already claimed it. If that domain is genuinely yours, contact support.

## The one-time API key

Right after the store is created, an amber panel shows the new API key (it starts with `rblr_`) with a copy button, and the warning is literal: it will not be shown again. Rebilder stores only a cryptographic fingerprint (a sha-256 hash) of the key, never the key itself, so nobody, including us, can display it later.

Copy it somewhere safe your developer can reach: a password manager or your deployment’s environment variables. If it ever goes missing, you don’t need the old one back; generate a replacement in Settings, which revokes the lost key.

## After setup

From the key panel you can continue straight to the install instructions, or skip to the Overview. The Console navigation on the left covers: Overview, Agent visits, Funnel, Products, Insights (the last three are Pro surfaces), What agents see, Install, Settings, and Billing.
