Creating a SheerID account

This article will describe how to create an account with SheerID for your business, how to apply protection with two-factor authentication (2FA), and how to add users to your MySheerID account.

You do NOT need a SheerID account to verify your status as a student, member of the military, etc. MySheerID accounts are solely intended for businesses that would like to verify consumers for a special offer. If you need help with your verification, please visit our consumer Help Center.

How to create a MySheerID account

Visit the signup page to get started.

1. Enter your first and last names and identify yourself as an individual or business
2. Create an account login by entering your business email address
3. Provide your company name and company URL for confirmation

After the last step you will be redirected to your MySheerID dashboard page.

Protecting your account with two-factor authentication

At the bottom left corner of the dashboard, you will find a button with your business name.

Click on it and then select Account Settings. By default, the setting for Two-Factor Authentication is Off. Contact SheerID Product Support to implement 2FA for your organization. Once enabled, all users of your MySheerID account must configure 2FA to sign in to the account. For more details about 2FA, read the full article.

Adding users to your MySheerID account

Now that your account is set up, you can invite your team to work with you in the platform in varying roles. See Managing users permissions on your account to learn about the different roles and permissions available.
