This topic describes how to create a direct customer account. As the creator of a direct account, you will be assigned the role of Company Admin. You can create an account by either signing up with an email address and password or using existing Google account credentials. When using your Google account, you must first sign in to your Google account.
If you experience any issues while creating a new Megaport account or when logging in to an existing account, see the Megaport Portal Authentication Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs).

    • Email — Enter the email address for the Megaport account.
      If this email address is already associated with another Megaport account, you need to enter a different address. Megaport verifies the email address before you can log in.
      Accounts cannot be created from free email domains. In this instance, an error message will be displayed and you need to use another email address.
    • Password — Enter the Megaport account password.
      The Megaport Portal password policy enforces minimum password complexity rules. Your password must contain:
      • At least 8 characters
      • Uppercase characters (A-Z)
      • Lowercase characters (a-z)
      • Numbers (0-9)
      • At least one special character: ^ $ * . [ ] ( ) ? ” ! @ # % & / \ , > < ’ : ; | _ ~ ` = + -
      The password policy uses a password strength estimator to prevent common, easily guessed passwords, such as Passw0rd. If you have met all complexity requirements and your password is still being rejected, the likely cause is that the password is too common or easy to guess.
    • Confirm Password — Enter the password again to confirm.
