Before You Begin
You will need:- A valid email address (use the artist’s private email, not a public-facing one)
- A phone number
- A password you will remember (or a password manager)
Step 1: Go to the Signup Page
Navigate to fanaura.com/signup. You will see the Fanaura logo and the account creation form. If you already have an account, click the “Sign in” link at the bottom of the form to go to the login page instead.Step 2: Enter Your Information
The signup form collects the following:Artist First Name and Last Name
Enter the artist’s legal first and last name. This is used for account verification and legal purposes — it is not the same as your stage name or display name. You will set your public artist/display name during onboarding. For example, if your stage name is “Luna Waves” but your legal name is “Sarah Johnson,” enter “Sarah” and “Johnson” here.Artist Email
Enter the artist’s private email address. This is used for:- Logging into Fanaura
- Account security and password resets
- Important account notifications
Tip: Use an email you check regularly. This is where your verification code and account alerts will go.
Phone Number
Select your country code from the dropdown (defaults to US +1) and enter your phone number. The country code picker includes 28+ countries and has a search function so you can quickly find yours. Phone numbers are formatted automatically as you type (e.g.,555-123-4567).
Password
Create a strong password. Requirements:- Minimum 8 characters
- Must include at least one uppercase letter
- Must include at least one lowercase letter
- Must include at least one number
- Must include at least one special character (
!@#$%^&*)
Confirm Password
Re-enter your password to make sure it matches. The show/hide toggle applies to both fields simultaneously.Terms of Service and Privacy Policy
Check the box to agree to Fanaura’s Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. You cannot create your account without accepting these.Step 3: Click “Create Account”
Once all fields are filled in and the terms box is checked, click the orange “Create Account” button. You will see a loading spinner while your account is being created.What Can Go Wrong Here

| ”Password must be at least 8 characters…” | Your password does not meet the strength requirements. | Add uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and special characters. |

What Happens After Verification
Once your email is verified, you are automatically redirected to the Onboarding page, where you will connect your Spotify profile and set up your artist account.Signing Up as a Team Member
If you are not the artist — if you are a manager, label representative, attorney, booking agent, publisher, or other team member — the flow is slightly different.Note: The default signup flow creates an artist account. Team member signup is available for managers and other roles who are setting up an account on behalf of an artist.
