# Create an Account

Welcome to Defi App! The **Onboarding** section of the documentation walks you through creating an account, setting up your wallets, funding your account, and getting started with the key features Defi App has to offer.

***

## Choose an Authentication Method

The method you use to sign up is also the method you use to sign in to [Defi App](https://app.defi.app/login). You can authenticate with:

* An [email address](#sign-up-using-an-email-address)
* A [social account](#sign-up-using-a-social-account)
* An [existing wallet](#sign-up-using-an-existing-wallet)
