# Create a profile

Before you can integrate tiun, you need a my.tiun.business account with a configured project. This is a one-time setup.

***

## 1. Sign up

Go to [my.tiun.business](https://my.tiun.business/) and sign up with your email.

***

## 2. Verify your email

Check your inbox for a verification link from tiun and click it to confirm the address.

***

## 3. Complete onboarding

After verifying, you'll be guided through a short onboarding flow that asks for a few details about your project — what you're building, what you'll be selling, and which pricing model fits (subscription, one-time purchase, time-based). There's no right or wrong on those; you can update them later from the dashboard.

Onboarding is also where your **currency** is set, based on your business location. It applies to every product you create — prices, trial amounts, interval fees and monthly limits are all denominated in it, and there is no per-product currency. See [Currency](/reference/generic/products.md#currency) in Reference.

This is the currency you **sell** in. The currency you're **paid out** in is set separately, in your beneficiary details — see [enable payouts](/guides/getting-started/enable-payouts.md).

***

## 4. Land in the dashboard

Once onboarding is done, you arrive in the [my.tiun.business dashboard](https://my.tiun.business/). This is where you'll create products, manage customers, and find the snippet ID and product IDs you need for the SDK.

From here:

* **Enable sandbox** from the **Sandbox** toggle in the sidebar to start building right away — no setup needed. See [setting up your environment](/guides/getting-started/set-up-environment.md).
* **Set up your live environment** — the dashboard prompts you to whitelist your website, your app, or both in **Settings → Environment setup**. See [setting up your environment](/guides/getting-started/set-up-environment.md#set-up-live).
* **Enable payouts** — add your beneficiary details in **Admin → Organization** so you can receive money. See [enable payouts](/guides/getting-started/enable-payouts.md).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.tiun.io/guides/getting-started/create-a-profile.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
