How to create your Pledgix account

Creating a Pledgix account takes about a minute. Once you're registered, you can launch fundraising campaigns, track donations in real time, and manage your team — all from your Pledgix dashboard.

Two ways to sign up

You can create your account in either of two ways:

  • Sign up with Google — one click, using your existing Google identity. No password to remember, and no email verification step (Google has already confirmed your address).
  • Email and password — fill in a short form and confirm your email address afterwards.

Both types of accounts work exactly the same once they're set up.

Signing up with your email address

  1. Go to the Pledgix sign-in page and select Create account.
  2. Enter your First name and Last name.
  3. Enter your Email address. This becomes your sign-in email, so use an address you check regularly.
  4. Choose a Password of at least 8 characters, then re-enter it in Confirm password.
  5. Review and accept the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy by ticking the checkbox.
  6. Complete the security check if one appears. This is an automated verification that protects Pledgix from bots — usually it completes on its own without any action from you.
  7. Select Create account.

You'll see a confirmation screen telling you that a verification link is on its way to your inbox.

Signing up with Google

  1. On the sign-up screen, select Sign up with Google.
  2. Choose the Google account you want to use and approve the sign-in.
  3. You're taken straight into your Pledgix dashboard — no verification email needed.
Tip: Whichever method you choose first becomes your sign-in method. If you signed up with Google, keep signing in with Google. If you ever want a password as well, you can use Forgot password? on the sign-in page to set one for your email address.

What happens next

  • Email sign-ups: Check your inbox for a verification email and click the link inside. You won't be able to sign in until your address is confirmed. See Verifying your email address for details.
  • Google sign-ups: You land directly on your dashboard, where a short welcome tour introduces the main areas of your account.

Shortly after your account becomes active, you'll also receive a one-time welcome email with a quick-start guide.

Common questions

"An account with this email already exists." Someone (probably you) has already registered with this address. Go back to the sign-in page and use Forgot password? if you don't remember your password.

The security check keeps failing. Refresh the page and try again. If the problem persists, try a different browser or network — some strict privacy extensions can interfere with the check.

I agreed to the terms but the button is greyed out. The Create account button stays disabled until the security check has completed. Give it a moment, or refresh and try again.
