Set up your account
Register, verify your email and finish onboarding before adding credit.
Create your account at the Layerbeat console. You can use email and password, or an available Google or GitHub sign-in option.
Register and verify your email
For email signup, use a password of 10–72 bytes and confirm the address using the verification email. A verified email is required for production top-ups and for joining another workspace.
If the message does not arrive, check spam and request another verification email from your account. A verification link expires after 30 minutes and can be used once.
Complete onboarding
Choose your default billing currency, enter a workspace name and optionally add a referral code. Your currency preference controls the balance and prices shown in the console; it does not move or convert money.
Prepare for your first purchase
Add personal credit and choose an SSH key or password. Then create a VPS.
Change account settings
Open Account settings in the console to change your default billing currency, manage linked sign-in methods and review email preferences. Existing payments, quotes and purchases keep their recorded currency and amount.
Use GET /v1/me to inspect your identity and workspace access. Account preferences are available through GET /v1/me/preferences and PATCH /v1/me/preferences; changing them requires a signed-in session.
Recover your account
Use Forgot password on the sign-in page. Recovery links expire after 30 minutes and work once. Completing a reset signs out existing sessions, revokes your API keys across workspaces and disconnects linked Google/GitHub sign-ins. Sign in with your new password, then recreate keys and reconnect the methods you need.
Verify before creating automation
The first email verification also removes access created before the address was verified. Create your long-lived API keys after verification.
If you have several workspaces, choose one in the console header. Switching workspaces changes the servers you manage, while your credit remains personal.
