Creating your account and verifying your email

Getting started with Cleanbox takes less than a minute. This guide walks you through creating your account, verifying your email address, and choosing your setup path.

Step 1: Create your account

Visit my.cleanbox.app/register or click any "Start free trial" button on the website. You will need to provide:

• First and last name (optional but recommended)
• Email address — This becomes your login and is where Cleanbox sends account notifications
• Password — Minimum 8 characters

After completing the CAPTCHA verification, click Create free account. No credit card is required — you start on the free plan automatically.

Step 2: Verify your email

After registration, Cleanbox sends a verification email to the address you provided. The email contains an 8-character verification code. Enter this code on the verification page to activate your account.

Did not receive the email?

• Check your spam folder — The email comes from no-reply@mail.cleanbox.app.
• Wait a moment — Delivery usually takes seconds but can occasionally take up to a minute.
• Click Resend — On the verification page, click the resend button to get a new code.

Verification code expiration

Each verification code is valid for 30 minutes. If it expires, request a new one using the resend button.

Step 3: Choose your setup path

After verification, Cleanbox offers three onboarding paths:

Path	Best for
Alias	Protecting your real email with @cleanbox.me aliases
Domain	Using your own domain with Cleanbox
Relay	Filtering inbound mail for an existing domain

You can skip the onboarding and set everything up manually from the dashboard.

What happens after setup

• Cleanbox begins processing incoming emails immediately
• Contacts are automatically discovered and categorized
• Newsletters are detected and the one-click unsubscribe toggle becomes available

You start on the free plan (1 mailbox, 3 aliases, 50 emails/week). Upgrade anytime from Settings.
