Open the sign-up page
Click Start Free on antick.io, or open the member area and choose Sign up. The page has two ways in: the email form on the right and the Continue with Google button below it.
Sign up with your email
Enter your full name and the email address you want to use for Antick. Choose a password of at least 8 characters with a number, an uppercase letter and a symbol; the checklist under the field turns green as each rule is met. Type the password again in Confirm Password.
Tick the box to agree to the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, then click Create Account. We keep a record of that acceptance. You must be at least 18 years old, and each person may hold only one Antick account.
Verify your email address
We send a verification code to your inbox. Enter it on the verification page to activate the account. If it does not arrive within a few minutes, check your spam folder and request a new code.
Or continue with Google
Click Continue with Google and pick the Google account you want to use. Before the account is created, you confirm the same Terms of Service and Privacy Policy checkbox. We receive your name, email address and Google account identifier from Google, and never your Google password.
Set your time zone
Open Profile from Quick Actions on the Overview page or from your account menu. Under Account Information, choose Edit and set your Time Zone. Every date in the member area and in our emails is then shown in that time zone, while subscription periods themselves run in UTC.
Choose your email and privacy preferences
Two switches on the Profile page are off by default and stay off unless you turn them on. Email updates sends articles, news, product updates, promotions and market insights by email; account, security and billing emails are always sent. Feature my profile in Antick promotions lets Antick use your display name, profile photo and profile content in its promotion and advertising.
Know your starting plan
New accounts start on the Free Plan. It needs no payment and covers a focused set of features, timeframes and assets; its duration and limits may change at any time. Anything outside your plan stays visible but locked, so you always know what a higher plan would open.
Next, take the ten-minute tour to see how the pieces fit together.
