Create Your Account
Creating your show.fm account takes a couple of minutes. Once you're signed up, you'll have access to your dashboard where you can create podcasts, manage episodes, and set up automations.
What You'll Need
- A valid email address you can check right away
- A password (at least 8 characters)
Steps
1. Go to the sign up page
Visit my.show.fm/signup to open the registration page.
2. Enter your details
Fill in the registration form:
- Full Name: enter your name as you'd like it to appear
- Email: use an email address you have access to
- Password: choose a secure password (minimum 8 characters)
3. Create your account
A short security check runs on the form while you type. It usually completes on its own and shows a tick; if it asks you to confirm you are a person, do that first. The Create account button stays disabled until the check has passed.
Click Create account.
Already have an account?
Click Sign in instead if you see a message that an account with your email already exists, or use the Sign in link at the bottom of the form.
4. Confirm your email
show.fm sends a 6-digit code to your email address. The page switches to Confirm your email to continue:
- Check your inbox for the code
- Type it into the Verification code field
- Click Verify & continue
Didn't get the code? Click Resend code and a new one is on its way (the security check may briefly appear again). Entered the wrong email? Click Go back to fix it.
Picked a plan first?
If you chose a paid plan on the pricing page before signing up, confirming your email takes you straight to secure checkout. Otherwise you land on your dashboard.
Signing In
If you already have an account, sign in at my.show.fm/login. Enter your email and password, wait for the security check under the password field to show its tick, then click Sign in.
The security check will not load?
It needs JavaScript and a connection to Cloudflare. If it reports that it could not load, refresh the page; a browser extension that blocks third-party scripts can also stop it, so allow challenges.cloudflare.com for my.show.fm.
Forgot your password?
- Click Forgot password? on the login page
- Enter your email, let the security check pass, and click Send reset link
- Open the emailed link, enter a new password under Set new password, and click Update password
- Sign in with your new password
Your Dashboard
After signing in you'll see your dashboard, the home base for all your podcasts. It greets you with Welcome back and shows counts for your Podcasts, Episodes, and Guests.
From here you can:
- Click Create Podcast to set up your first show
- Follow the Get Started checklist in the sidebar as it tracks your setup progress
- Open Account Settings from the sidebar to complete your profile
Invited onto someone's podcast?
Guests don't need an account to collaborate on an episode. Your invitation email gives you portal access directly. See our guides for guests.
