Signup and Registration

Experience the magic of turning a text description into visual form in a matter of seconds, using Ideogram!

1. Signup

To generate images on Ideogram, you will need to first create an account.

To do this, go to Ideogram.ai and choose a sign-up method. We offer sign-ups using a Google, Apple, or Microsoft account, single sign-on (SSO) for organizations that use it, or an email address and password. When you pick a provider, you will be redirected to its login page and then back to Ideogram.

Accounts created with an email address and password don't include free credits — you'll need a paid plan to generate. Sign up with Google, Apple, or Microsoft if you want to try Ideogram on the free plan first.

Be sure to select the correct account or email address when signing up, as it cannot be changed later.

The log in or sign up page: Google, Apple, Microsoft, SSO, or email.

2. Pick a username

Once you log in, you will be prompted to choose a username that will be associated with your account and will be visible to other Ideogram users.

The username must be unique, only contain alphanumeric characters and underscore, and be between 3 and 16 characters. Please note that your sign-in account's profile picture will be used as your Ideogram profile picture by default, but you can change your picture to any of your own generations later.

Be sure to choose a username you like, as you won't be able to change it later. Once you've chosen a username, you're ready to experience the magic of text-to-image!

Choose a good username, you can't change it later!

3. Subscribe to an Ideogram plan

To get access to priority generation, private generation, image upload, and other premium features, you'll need to subscribe to one of our plans. Click your profile picture and select Manage plan, or visit ideogram.ai/pricing for current plans, prices, and included credits.

Any unused Priority credits awarded through the monthly plan will expire at the end of each monthly billing cycle. However, Priority credits purchased as a top-up will roll over to the next month and will only be used after your monthly Priority credits are depleted. Learn more about the credit system and the differences between Priority credits and Slow credits in Available Plans.

4. Join Ideogram's Discord server

Our Discord server is home to the Ideogram community: product announcements and status updates, a general chat, a creations channel for sharing your work, a support channel where staff and community members help each other, and an ideas channel for suggestions. The start-here channel explains where everything lives. Visit discord.gg/ideogram and connect with a Discord account to join — see Discord for the full tour.

Ideogram accounts are separate from Discord accounts.
