# Setting Up Your PureClarity Account

> How to create a new PureClarity account or link an existing account using the WooCommerce plugin

<Note>
  Before setting up your account, ensure you have the PureClarity WooCommerce plugin installed and activated. You'll need admin access to your WordPress/WooCommerce site.
</Note>

## Creating a New Account

When you click on the PureClarity menu and haven't signed up yet, you'll see the signup form:

This form enables you to sign up for a free-trial account with PureClarity. Fill in the required basic details:

* **Store Name** - Your business/store name
* **Email Address** - Your business email
* **First & Last Name** - Your contact details
* **Phone Number** - For account verification
* **Country** - Your business location

<Tip>
  Choose your details carefully as they'll be used for account configuration and support communications.
</Tip>

### Account Processing

When you submit the form:

1. **Request submitted** - Your details are sent to PureClarity for processing
2. **Processing time** - Usually completed within a couple of minutes
3. **Automatic configuration** - If you stay on the waiting page, your WooCommerce site will be configured automatically
4. **Background setup** - If you navigate away, a background process will complete the configuration

## Linking an Existing Account

If you already have a PureClarity account, click the "Link existing account" option above the signup form:

### Required Credentials

You'll need the following keys from your existing PureClarity account:

1. **AccessKey** - Your unique access identifier
2. **SecretKey** - Your secure authentication key

<Warning>
  Keep your SecretKey confidential and never share it publicly. It provides full access to your PureClarity account.
</Warning>

### Finding Your Keys

To locate your keys:

1. Log into your **PureClarity Admin**
2. Navigate to **My Account > Integration**
3. Copy your AccessKey and SecretKey
4. Select your **region** (USA / Europe / UK)

<Info>
  Your region selection must match where your PureClarity application is hosted for proper connectivity.
