Accounts

Accounts on Koyeb are associated with a single user. Each account can:

  • Authenticate with Koyeb to sign in
  • Create organizations and invite teammates to collaborate
  • Join existing organizations
  • Link to GitHub to associate a Koyeb account with a GitHub account

Koyeb resources like Apps, Services, Deployments, Instances, and domains are tied to organizations rather than user accounts, so the creating and joining an organization is key to using Koyeb.

Creating your Koyeb user account is free! You can check out the different plans and features on the pricing page (opens in a new tab).

Create a Koyeb account

From the sign up page (opens in a new tab), you have three ways to sign up:

  • Using GitHub Single Sign-On (SSO)
  • Using a passkey
  • Using an email address and a password

Note: you can link your Koyeb account with your GitHub account at any time via the account settings page (opens in a new tab).

Koyeb provides a complete GitHub integration to simplify your development workflows. This includes support for using GitHub as an authentication method.

From the sign up page (opens in a new tab), click the Continue with GitHub button. You will be redirected to GitHub and will be asked to grant Koyeb access to specific information associated with your GitHub account to verify your identity and email address.
