Create an account

Sign-up opens a merchant account at BlinkyPay. If you are joining the team of an account that already exists, don't sign up here: use the invitation (see Accept an invitation).

#Step by step

  1. On the sign-in screen, click the Create account tab (or Sign up). The screen is called Create your account.
  2. In Full name, type your name.
  3. Pick CPF or CNPJ in the switch next to the document field and type the number.
  4. Type your Email and Phone.
  5. Choose a Password and repeat it in Confirm password.
  6. Tick the box "By creating your account you agree to the Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy". Both links open the documents in another tab. See Terms and privacy.
  7. Click Create account.

The name you type in Full name also becomes the account name. You can change it later in Account → Settings (see Settings).

#What the screen checks

  • CPF and CNPJ: the screen checks the digits as you type and warns "CPF invalid" or "CNPJ invalid".
  • CNPJ: when you leave the field, the screen looks it up at the Receita Federal ("Checking Receita Federal…") and shows the company name and its registration status. If Full name is empty, it is filled with the company name.
  • A CNPJ not found at the Receita Federal, or with a status other than ATIVA, blocks sign-up. If the lookup doesn't answer, the screen shows "Valid CNPJ" and sign-up goes on.
  • Phone: must be a valid number. Without the country code, it counts as a Brazilian number. An invalid number shows "Invalid phone".
  • Password: at least 8 characters, with 1 uppercase letter and 1 number. If something is missing, the screen tells you when you click Create account.
  • Confirm password: must match the Password ("Passwords do not match").
  • Terms: if you don't tick the box, the screen warns "You need to accept the terms to create your account".

#Email and document already registered

  • Each email has one access only. "This email is already in use" means the email is already registered: sign in through the Sign in tab or recover the password (see Sign in, sign out and reset your password).
  • A CPF opens one account only. If the CPF already has an account, the screen warns "This document is already registered".
  • The same CNPJ can have more than one account.

#After you create it

  • If the screen shows Confirm your email, open the link that reached your inbox (it is valid for 24 hours), then sign in with email and password.
  • If not, the dashboard opens straight on Home.
  • You join as the account's Owner. To bring other people in, see Team.
  • The account starts waiting for the company verification. First steps, on Home, shows what is missing. See First steps and Verification (KYC).
  • The account starts with a wallet in Brazilian reais (BRL), on Brasília time and in Portuguese. See Time zone and language.
  • Referral link (from Refer & Earn): sign-up keeps the link's code on its own. There is no field to type the code. See Refer & Earn.
  • Invitation link from a manager: sign up with the same email the invitation was sent to. With another email, the account is created, but without the invitation.
