Hey my friend! Welcome or welcome back to my blog! Today, you’re going to learn how to sign up for Canva for free.

If you hate the read then the video is right here for ya:

The first thing you need to do is go to your search bar and type in this URL https://www.canva.com or you can join by using this link here.  This will bring you to the sign-up page.

In the middle of the page, you’ll see a big purple button that says “ Sign up for free .”.

You can also sign up from the top right-hand corner where it says “ Sign up .”. However, I recommend sticking to the “ Sign up for free” button.

Click on that button, and it will bring up a form that looks like this picture below:

In this case, we’re going to choose “Continue with email .” Click on that button, and it will bring you to another form that looks like this

Make sure to use an email that you have easy access to and check regularly. This will help you stay organized and not miss any notifications from Canva.

Once you’ve entered your email double-check to make sure it’s correct, Then scroll down and click the purple “ Continue” button.

Next, it will say “Create your account” and show the email you used to sign up to Canva with.

Enter your name and click “, Create your account .” After that, you’ll receive a Code in the email you signed up with.

Make sure to have that email handy, Open the email from Canva and copy the code.

Here is an example of what it looks like when Canva sends a verification code to the email that you used to sign up with in order to verify that it is really you.

Once you have the code that you retrieved from your email, go back to the Canva page and enter the code. Your account is now created!

They will ask you the purpose of using Canva and you can choose from options like teachers, students, personal account, nonprofit or charity, small business or large company. For this example, we’ll choose ” Personal .”.

This is what the section of Canva looks like when it asks what you will be using Canva for.

They may offer the pro version for free for a limited time, but we’re focusing on signing up for free.

So to bypass the pro offer simply click, “Maybe later” in this case. You can see your dashboard In the upper right-hand corner. You’ll see your initials in the upper right hand corner. For example, if your name is Jane Smith, it will show “ JS .” In my case, I’m Seely Clark, so it shows “SC .”.

This is what the upper righthand corner of your Canva members area should look like.

About the author

I live in Bangor, Maine and I worked full-time as an RN at a local hospital. In 2010 I started working online Part-time after my mother was disabled by a heart attack. I wanted to build extra income to help with her health care.

What started as a way to make extra income has grown into a passion!
Over the years I have learned a great deal about marketing on the Internet.

I have learned many things that don’t work and much that DOES work.

One thing I have learned is that for me to succeed, I have to help others succeed.

So now my focus is on teaching others what I have learned works so that they can avoid the money-wasting struggles I went through and finally start making money on the Internet.
