# 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, used to manage 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.
|
|
|
|
