# Getting started

> Sign up, complete onboarding, and set up your committee on Taack.

This guide walks you through signing up as an organizer, creating your committee, and landing in the dashboard ready to build your first event.

## Before you begin

* A valid email address for your Taack account
* A name for your committee and a short, memorable handle for your committee's web address
* Bank details if you want to connect payouts straight away (you can skip this and come back later)

## Sign up and onboarding

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create your account">
    Go to [taack.app](https://taack.app) and sign up. You'll verify your email as part of the process.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Complete your profile">
    Enter your first and last name. Your email is linked to your account and cannot be changed here.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create your committee">
    Upload a logo, then fill in:

    * **Committee Name** — the public name patrons see (for example, "Island Vibes Events")
    * **Committee Handle** — a short, unique web address for your committee page
    * **Committee Email** — the contact email shown on your public page
    * **Short Bio** — a brief description of who you are and what events you run
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set up payouts (optional)">
    Connect a bank account so Taack can send your earnings after events. Click **Skip for now** and return to **Payouts** whenever you're ready.

    Payouts require identity verification — you'll upload documents and wait for approval before your first transfer.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open your dashboard">
    Once onboarding is complete, you'll arrive at the **Dashboard** — your home base for events, sales, and settings.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Create your first event

When you're ready, head to **Events** and click **Create Event**. The full walkthrough is in [Create an event](/organizers/create-an-event).

<Tip>
  After creating an event, add at least one ticket type before patrons can buy. Taack will remind you if none exist yet.
