# Registration and Sign-In

Creating your Campo Brokers account takes less than a minute. Registration is **free**; the US$5 annual membership is only charged when you decide to activate an Importer or Dealer plan (see [Membership and Plans](#membresia-planes)).

## Create your account

1. Go to the **sign-up/sign-in** page: [campobroker.com/iniciar-sesion-registrarse](https://campobroker.com/iniciar-sesion-registrarse/).
2. Enter your **email address** and click **Continue**. The system checks whether the email already exists:
   - If it's **new**, the registration form appears.
   - If it **already exists**, the sign-in form appears.
3. In the registration form, fill in: **first name**, **last name**, **country**, and a **password**.
4. Check the **Terms and Conditions** box and complete the **reCAPTCHA** (anti-bot verification).
5. Click **Create my account**. Your account is created, your **NIP** (personal ID number, format `CAM…`) is generated, and you receive a **welcome email**.
6. You're logged in automatically and land on your **dashboard** (or the welcome screen).

> [!TIP]
> You can also sign up with **Google (one tap)** when the button is available: just confirm your name and country and you're done.

## Sign in

1. Go to [campobroker.com/iniciar-sesion-registrarse](https://campobroker.com/iniciar-sesion-registrarse/) (or the sign-in page).
2. Enter your email and your **password**.
3. Click **Sign in**. For security, after several failed attempts access is temporarily limited.

## Reset your password

If you forgot it, the process uses a **one-time code** sent by email:

1. Go to [campobroker.com/recuperar-contrasena](https://campobroker.com/recuperar-contrasena/).
2. Enter your email and click **Send code**. You'll receive a **6-digit code** valid for **30 minutes**.
3. Enter the code and click **Verify code**.
4. Set your **new password** (minimum 8 characters) and confirm it.
5. Sign in again with your new password.

> [!NOTE]
> For security, code requests are limited (a few per hour) and each code can only be used once.

## Complete your profile

The first time you enter the dashboard, if any required fields are missing (first name, last name, or country), the system will ask you to complete them before continuing. You can also edit this information later in **Settings** inside the dashboard (see [My Dashboard](#dashboard)).

## What is the NIP?

The **NIP** is your personal identifier within Campo Brokers (format `CAM……`). You'll see it on your dashboard, and it's a good idea to have it handy when you contact support, since it speeds up service.

## Security of your data

- Your documents are stored **privately** and are not publicly accessible.
- Access is protected with **reCAPTCHA**, attempt limits, and other anti-abuse measures.
- Payments are processed through **PayPal**; Campo Brokers does not store your card details.
