You want to join a Meetup group or attend a Meetup event. But first, you need to create a free Meetup account. It’s the best way to tell your future communities a little bit about yourself, and it also helps us match you with the groups with which you’d be most interested in meeting up. Creating a Meetup account is quick and easy for anyone, and within a matter of minutes you’ll be introduced to a wide range of interesting events happening in your local area. Let’s do this. We’re excited that you’re going to meet up.

To create a Meetup account from your desktop or mobile web browser, visit www.meetup.com and click Sign up in the upper right-hand corner. 

To create a Meetup account from your Android or iOS device, download the app, open it, and simply tap Sign up. It’s as easy to sign up as it is fun to meet up.

And by the way, when creating your account, you have the option to use your email address, or just connect through your Facebook or Google account.

After creating your Meetup account, you should receive an email confirmation from us. If you don’t get your confirmation email within 5-10 minutes of signing up, there are a few places to look for it: 

• Check your spam or junk folders. Make sure your spam filter is set to allow incoming emails from Meetup. To be sure, you can add info@meetup.com to your address book or contacts list.
  
• If you registered using a Gmail address, your confirmation may be in the Social tab of your Inbox.
  
• If you’ve checked in these places and still can’t find a confirmation email, just contact us below, and our Community Support Team will get you set up.
