## Your domain

Upmind creates a subdomain for your online store. It has a randomly generated unique ID plus the extension **.upmind.app**.

We encourage you to [configure your own domain name](/setup-and-configuration/branding/how-to-add-a-custom-domain-name) (e.g., yourdomain.com or clientarea.yourdomain.com) after setup.

## Verifying an account

Upmind emails a message with a verification link. If the message does not arrive within five minutes, check your spam folder.

Click the link. Your organisation’s admin dashboard opens in a new browser tab. Your account is live!

## Single vs. Multi Brand

Each Upmind account is called an organisation. An organisation can have multiple brands, which can be set up on the brand's page.

If you have multiple businesses on Upmind, we recommend using multi-brand mode under one organisation (assuming the businesses are under the same legal entity). However, if the businesses are separate entities, you should register a standalone Upmind organisation.
