# Cloud Accounts
|
|
|
|
> Creating an Account is easy and free. Your Account gives you SuperAdmin access to your Teams and Projects on Directus
|
|
> Cloud, enabling you to create and manage Teams, Team Members, Projects, and Project Billing.

An Account is your portal to Directus Cloud. You can use it to manage your Teams, Team Members, Projects and
|
|
[billing](/cloud/teams/#manage-billing). To avoid confusion, "User" is the term for user profiles in a Directus Project,
|
|
while the terms "Account" and "Team Member" are used in the context of Directus Cloud. _Accounts on Directus Cloud_ and
|
|
_Users in a Directus Project_ are two separate systems.
|
|
|
|
See the [Overview](/cloud/overview) to learn how Accounts, Teams and Projects interrelate.

## Create Account and Login

Creating an Account is easy and free. As we talked about in the [Overview](/cloud/overview/), we've made life easy for

you by giving you the option to create and log in to your free Cloud Account automatically with GitHub. If you don't
|
|
have a GitHub account or prefer not to use this login method, email-and-password login is available, as well. In either
|
|
case, simply go to the [Login Page](https://directus.cloud/login) and follow the prompts.
