Sign Up With Google and Set Up Your Account

How to create your free Funded with Flow account by signing in with Google, then set up your profile, notifications, and free paper trading account.

~2 min read Last reviewed: July 13, 2026

Creating your Funded with Flow account takes one step: sign in with Google. There is no separate password to create or remember, and no card is needed to get started.

Sign up with Google

Funded with Flow uses Google sign in only. When you choose to sign in, you pick your Google account, confirm, and you are in. That is your whole signup.

One thing to keep in mind: use the same Google account every time. All of your accounts, challenges, and payouts are tied to it, so signing in with a different Google account would look like a brand new user. If you are not sure which account you used before, sign in and check your Profile settings.

Set up your profile

Once you are in, take a minute to get your account ready:

  • Review your name and privacy options on your Profile settings.
  • Choose which alerts and emails you receive on your Alerts settings, including trade fills, account events, and mobile push notifications.
  • Browse the getting started guides on the Learn page so you know your way around before you place a trade.

Your free paper account is ready

Every user gets a free paper trading account by default. It is a virtual practice account with no challenge rules, so it never fails or liquidates, and it is a great place to learn the platform. It also includes a 7 day real time market data trial so your charts and quotes are live from the start.

You can see and manage your accounts on the Accounts page. From there you can open the Trade terminal to place your first simulated trade with live charts and an order ticket.

When you are ready for a challenge

When you want to trade toward a funded account, you can start a paid challenge. The plans, account sizes, targets, and rules vary by plan, so check the live details on the Pricing page or on your Accounts page. Every paid tier includes real time market data and a 100 percent profit split.

That is all it takes to get started. If you run into any trouble signing in, email [email protected] and we will help you get into the right account.
