## Welcome to Broadstripes!

Getting started with Broadstripes is simple. It all begins when your Broadstripes administrator creates your account and emails you an invitation to join. You’ll follow the link in that email to set a password and log in to the app. Here’s how:

1. When your user account is created, you’ll receive an email from your Broadstripes administrator with a subject line like **”Jane Organizer has invited you to \[Project Name].”** The email will include a **Login to Broadstripes** button and will show the date your invitation expires.
2. **Open** the invitation email.
3. Click the **Login to Broadstripes** button (or the link below it) to open the registration form.
4. Clicking the link will open a browser window to a Broadstripes registration form where you’ll **enter your phone number**, choose your new **password** and **specify your time zone**. You must confirm your password by typing it a second time.

<Note>
  Important!

  Choose a secure password that’s at least eight characters long, and contains at least one punctuation mark or numeric character. Passwords are case-sensitive.
