Sign Up for PhantomBuster and Activate your Workspace

This guide shows you how to sign up for PhantomBuster, activate your account, and start using your first workspace. 

Sign up for your free trial

To get started:

1. Visit phantombuster.com, add your email address and click Start free trial.

2. Create a password.

3. Add your name, last name and company name. Click Sign up. 

Once submitted:

• A workspace is automatically created for you.
• You’re granted a 14-day free trial with access to all features. 

Learn more about what's included in the Free trial. 

Validate your email to activate your account

You must validate your email address within 72 hours of signing up.
If you don't, your workspace will be deleted, and you’ll need to sign up again.

Here’s how to complete the validation:

1. Open your inbox and find an email titled "Activate your PhantomBuster account."
2. Click the Verify new email button in that email.
3. Once verified, your PhantomBuster workspace is fully active and ready to use.

If you did not receive the email

If your email hasn’t arrived yet, here’s how to fix it:

Resend the validation email

1. Log in to your PhantomBuster workspace.

2. Click the red banner at the top of your screen to resend the account validation email.

Check your spam and filters

• Look in your spam or junk folders
• Add noreply@phantombuster.com to your contacts to ensure future delivery

If your email provider filters aggressively, your validation email may soft-bounce (temporarily rejected).

Still not receiving the email 

If the issue continues:

• If you still can’t find it, return to the sign-up page and try registering again using the same or a different email.
• If the issue persists, contact PhantomBuster Customer Care Team.

What happens after activation

Once your account is validated:

• You can immediately start using the PhantomBuster platform.
• Your PhantomBuster workspace is live, and you can begin running Phantoms or explore a Workflow to launch your first automation.
• The 14-day trial timer starts, giving you access to every automation and feature.

Your workspace will be visible in the top right corner of the app. You can invite teammates, connect your social media accounts, and launch automations from day one.

Invited to a company workspace but still seeing a trial. Here’s what to do

This is a common case. Whether you signed up before or after receiving the invite, PhantomBuster always creates a personal trial workspace for you when you register. 

That’s the workspace you’ll land in by default, even if your company has a paid subscription.

To move between workspaces:

1. Log in to your PhantomBuster primary workspace.
2. Hover over your name in the top right corner and click the double arrow icon next to your current workspace name.
3. Select the workspace you want to switch to.

A checkmark will show which one is currently active.

Switching to your company’s workspace will give you access to the paid subscription and correct usage limits.
