# Self Onboard on eTIMS

You can create a Slade360 Advantage account and activate your business for
eTIMS yourself. Nobody has to provision it for you, and the wizard walks you
through each screen. Budget a few minutes.

## Step 1: Open the onboarding page

Go to **[dev.advantage.slade360.com/auth/welcome](https://dev.advantage.slade360.com/auth/welcome)**
and click **Get Started**.

If you already have an account, choose **Sign In** instead.

## Step 2: Select your account type

Choose how you're setting up:

| Account type | Use it for |
|--------------|------------|
| **Business** *(recommended)* | Clinics, facilities, or businesses operating one or more locations. |
| **Individual** | Solo practitioners and independent health or wellness professionals. |

Most eTIMS users want Business. You can change it later.

## Step 3: Verify Admin ID

Step 1 of 3 in the setup wizard. Enter the administrator's professional
details, then confirm the emailed link and type in the SMS code to prove the
admin is who they say they are.

> If a connected registry already holds your professional details, the form
> fills them in for you. If not, type them in yourself.

## Step 4: Setup Business

Step 2 of 3. Fill in your business name, KRA PIN, and the branch or branches
you operate. This is the organisation your eTIMS transactions get reported
under.

business is registered and can transact on eTIMS.
