After verifying your email, you'll land on the checkout page. This is where you choose your plan, set up domains, enter payment details, and activate your account. The process takes just a few minutes.
1. Choose a Plan Tier
Select the plan tier that fits your organization. See the Tier Comparison for a full breakdown of pricing and features. Your tier determines your monthly membership fee, per-Core pricing, and which add-ons are available.
2. Set Up Your Domains
You'll need a minimum of three domains. You have two options:
- Use Federated Domains — Get set up instantly with
federatedcomputer.cloud,federatedcomputer.net, andfedcom.netat no additional cost. These are managed by Federated Computer and require no registration fees. - Register Custom Domains — Choose your own domain names. You can check availability and see pricing directly in the checkout flow. Custom domains are registered through Federated's domain partner and billed as part of your setup charge.
See Federated Domains vs Custom Domains for more detail.
3. Apply a Coupon (Optional)
If you have a coupon code, enter it at checkout to receive a discount on your initial charge. Coupons may reduce the plan fee, the domain cost, or both depending on the coupon configuration.
4. Enter Payment Details
Provide a credit or debit card. Your card will be charged immediately for the setup amount, which includes:
- Your first month's membership fee for the plan you selected
- An account credit equal to your plan's included credit (applied to future Core and billing charges)
- Domain registration fees for any custom domains (Federated domains are free)
5. Account Activation
Once payment is processed successfully, your account is activated. You'll receive an invoice by email confirming the charges. Your account is now live and you can begin provisioning Cores.
Note: An SSH key pair is automatically generated for your account during checkout. This key is used by the Provisioner API to deploy Cores. You can view your public key in Account Settings.
