Creating your CARTO organization

In this guide, we'll walk through the process of creating your first CARTO organization. This will be the first step to start creating stunning maps and perform spatial analytics at scale, with everything running directly on top of your cloud data warehouse.

1. Account sign up

   • Go to the CARTO Sign up page.

   • Enter your email address and password. You can also sign up with your existing Google account by clicking Continue with Google.

   • Follow the steps to verify your email and continue with your new organization setup.

1. Organization setup

If your email domain is already associated with an existing CARTO organization, you will be able to join (or request to join) any of the existing organizations associated with that domain. Alternatively, you will be able to create a brand new organization.

For new organizations, you will need to choose an organization name (e.g. CARTO) and a deployment region. As a rule of thumb, you should choose the region closest to your data warehouse. For more information, check our article on deployment regions.

After finishing the form, click "Let's get started with CARTO!" to complete the sign up process and get access to the CARTO Workspace. By signing up you accept the Terms and conditions of the Services and the privacy notice.

You are ready to start using CARTO!
