Sign up for TakeTurns

In this article, we walk through how to sign up for TakeTurns. We offer multiple options. You can:

  • Create a TakeTurns account with your email, or

  • Use existing credentials from services such as Google, Microsoft, etc.

💡 IMPORTANT

The email address you use to sign up is important since this the one people will use to invite you to a collaboration. We recommend to use your professional email address, the one you expect your external parties to use for invitations.

We recommend you add notification@taketurns.app to your address book or your list of safe email addresses. notification@taketurns.app is the email address that we use to send you invites, updates, and transactional emails.

💡 NOTE: What do I do if I received an invitation to collaborate?

We recommend you click on the accept invitation button in the email. Please review this piece on how to Accept Invitations for more details.

Sign up with a service

By signing up for TakeTurns using Google or Microsoft, you’re using those services as a single sign-on service. This means you’ll use your login credentials for that service--for example, at Google, this would be your Google Workspace or GMail address and Google password--to access TakeTurns. This eases your need to manage yet another set of usernames and passwords. Also, it is important to note that at no time will TakeTurns take possession of critical details such as your passwords.

Select a plan

After signing up, you can choose a plan with a trial period of 30 days. When selecting a subscription plan, you will go through a payment checkout process but you won’t be charged until your trial period expires. You can cancel your trial at an time before it expires. You will be able to later upgrade or downgrade your plan by managing your account.

💡 NOTE

Participant invited to a collaboration who are signing up to TakeTurns will be automatically enrolled to the FREE INVITEE plan and therefore won’t see the subscription plan page. This simplifies the process for new participants. They will be able to upgrade later to a subscription plan.

Complete your profile

The last step of the signup process is optional and allows you to complete your profile. This will help participants better identify you in collaborations. On this screen, you can edit:

  • Your first and last name

  • Your function

  • Your avatar (small photo that identifies you)

If you skip this step, you will be able to edit your profile later in your settings.

💡 Tip

We recommend that you set your organization name in your account settings, for example the name of your company/business. This will allows to automatically set your party name when creating new collaborations. Learn how.
