#Email verification

After signing up on the Individual plan, check your inbox for a verification email from Lantern. Click the link to confirm your address before accessing your workspace.

On the Team plan, your email is automatically confirmed when you complete checkout.

#Completing checkout (Team plan)

If you chose the Team plan, you will be redirected to a Stripe checkout page to enter your payment details. Once payment is complete, your workspace is activated immediately and you can start adding clients.

You can choose between GBP, EUR, and USD when checking out.

#What gets created

When you complete signup, Lantern creates:

  • An organisation tied to your account
  • A team member record with the Owner role
  • A 14-day trial period (Individual plan only)

The Owner role gives you full access to all settings, billing, and team management.

#Logging back in
