Account Management

When you first sign up for Vercel, you'll create an account. This account is used to manage your Vercel resources. Vercel has three types of plans:

• Hobby
• Pro
• Enterprise

Each plan offers different features and resources, allowing you to choose the right plan for your needs.

When signing up for Vercel, you can choose to sign up with an email address or a Git provider.

To sign up with email:

1. Enter your email address to receive the six-digit one-time password (OTP)
2. Enter the OTP to proceed with logging in successfully.

When signing up with your email, no Git provider will be connected by default. See login methods and connections for information on how to connect a Git provider. If no Git provider is connected, you will be asked to verify your account on every login attempt.

You can sign up with any of the following supported Git providers:

• GitHub
• GitLab
• Bitbucket

Authorize Vercel to access your Git provider account. This will be the default login connection on your account.

Once signed up you can manage your login connections in the authentication section of your dashboard.

You can manage your login connections in the Authentication section of your account settings. To find this section:

1. Select your profile picture near the top-right of the dashboard
2. Select Settings in the dropdown that appears
3. Select Authentication in the list near the left side of the page

Passkeys allow you to log into your Vercel account using biometrics such as face or fingerprint recognition, PINs, hardware security keys, and more.

To add a new passkey:

1. From the dashboard, click your account avatar and select Settings. In your account settings, go to the Authentication item
2. Under Add New, select the Passkey button and then click Continue
3. Select the authenticator of preference. This list depends on your browser and your eligible devices. By default, Vercel will default to a password manager if you have one installed on your browser and will automatically prompt you to save the passkey
4. Follow the instructions on the device or with the account you've chosen as an authenticator

When you're done, the passkey will appear in a list of login methods on the Authentication page, alongside your other connections.

SAML Single Sign-On enables you to log into your Vercel Enterprise team with your organization's identity provider which manages your credentials.

Available only to Enterprise teams, this option can be configured by your team's administrator. To sign up for an Enterprise plan, contact sales.

When you create an account on Vercel, you will be prompted to create a project by either importing a Git repository or using a template.

Either way, you must connect a Git provider to your account, which you'll be able to use as a login method in the future.

Your Hobby team on Vercel can have only one login connection per third-party service. For example, you can only log into your Hobby team with a single GitHub account.

For multiple logins from the same service, create a new Vercel Hobby team.

Teams on Vercel let you collaborate with other members on projects and access additional resources.

Collaborating with other members on projects is available on the Pro and Enterprise plans.

Upgrade from the Hobby plan to Pro to add team members.

After creating a new trial, you'll have 14 days of Pro premium features and collaboration for free.

You can join a Vercel team through an invitation from a team owner, automatic addition by a team's identity provider, or by requesting access yourself. To request access, you can push a commit to a private Git repository owned by the team.

To leave a team:

1. If there isn't another owner for your team, you must assign a different confirmed member as the team owner
2. Go to your team's dashboard and select the Settings tab
3. Scroll to the Leave Team section and select the Leave Team button
4. Click Confirm
5. If you are the only remaining member, you should delete the team instead

To delete a team:

1. Remove all team domains
2. Go to your team's dashboard and select the Settings tab
3. Scroll to the Delete Team section and select the Delete Team button
4. Click Confirm

If you'd prefer to cease payment instead of deleting your team, you can downgrade to Hobby.

Your default team will be used when you make a request through the API or CLI and don’t specify a specific team. It will also be the team shown whenever you first log in to Vercel or navigate to /dashboard. The first Hobby or Pro team you create will automatically be nominated as the default team.

If you delete, leave, or are removed from your default team, Vercel will automatically choose a new default team for you. However, you may want to choose a default team yourself. To do that:

1. Navigate to vercel.com/account/settings
2. Under Default Team, select your new default team from the dropdown
3. Press Save

Your Team ID is a unique and unchangeable identifier that's automatically assigned when your team is created.

There are a couple of methods you can use to locate your Team ID:

• Vercel API: Use the Vercel API to retrieve your Team ID
• Dashboard: Find your Team ID directly from your team's Dashboard on Vercel:
  • Navigate to the following URL, replacing your_team_name_here with your actual team's name: https://vercel.com/teams/your_team_name_here/settings#team-id. If you're unable to locate your Team ID using the URL method, follow these steps:
  • Open your team's dashboard and head over to the Settings tab
  • Choose General from the left-hand navigation
  • Scroll down to the Team ID section and your Team ID will be there ready for you to copy

Configuring a team email domain will permit users with a matching and verified email address to request access to your team without requiring an invitation. For example, if your team email domain is acme.com, a user with the email address john@acme.com will be able to request access to join your team.

This is useful if you would like employees, or those you work with, to request access to join your team instead of sending them an invitation.

To allow this feature, you must add the email domain to the Vercel Domains section. Given the example above, you would add acme.com.

To access your email settings from the dashboard:

1. Select your avatar in the top right corner of the dashboard.
2. Select Account Settings from the list.
3. Select the Settings tab and scroll down to the Emails section.
4. You can then add, remove, or change the primary email address associated with your account.

To add a new email address

1. Follow the steps above and select the Add Another button in the Emails section of your account settings.
2. Once you have added the new email address, Vercel will send an email with a verification link to the newly added email. Follow the link in the email to verify your new email address.
3. Once verified, all email addresses can be used to log in to your account, including your primary email address.

You can add up to three emails per account, with a single email domain shared by two emails at most.

Your primary email address is the email address that will be used to send you notifications, such as when you receive a new preview comment or when you are invited to a team.

Once you have added and verified a new email address, you can change your primary email address by selecting Set as Primary in the dot menu.

To remove an email address select the Delete button in the dot menu.

If you wish to remove your primary email address, you will need to set a new primary email address first.
