Creating a free Lovable AI account takes under two minutes: go to lovable.dev, click Sign Up, choose email, Google, GitHub, or Apple to register, verify your email if needed, and you land straight in your dashboard with your first daily credits ready to use — no credit card required.
Ready to Sign Up Right Now?
Skip ahead and create your account directly — the steps below will still be here if you need them.
What You Need Before You Start
Nothing complicated — just an email address, or an existing Google, GitHub, or Apple account you’re happy to sign in with. No credit card, no payment details, and no approval process. The free plan is permanent, not a time-limited trial.
Step-by-Step: Creating Your Lovable AI Account
Step 1: Go to the Official Lovable Website
Open your browser and go to lovable.dev. Use the official site directly rather than a third-party sign-up link, so you know you’re getting the current registration flow and full account access.
Step 2: Click “Sign Up”
On the homepage, click the Sign Up or Get Started button. You can also go straight to lovable.dev/signup to land on the registration page directly.
Step 3: Choose How You Want to Register
Lovable gives you four options, all creating the identical free account with the same features and credits:
- Email and password — the traditional route
- Google — fastest option for most people, no new password to remember
- GitHub — convenient if you’re already a developer
- Apple ID — for Apple ecosystem users
Pick whichever is most convenient — the outcome is the same either way. (Business/Enterprise accounts can also use SAML or OIDC single sign-on if your organization has that configured.)
Step 4: Verify Your Email (If You Signed Up With Email + Password)
If you registered with email and password, check your inbox for a verification email and click the confirmation link to activate your account. If you signed up with Google, GitHub, or Apple, this step happens automatically — nothing extra required.
Step 5: Land in Your Dashboard
Once signup completes, Lovable automatically creates your personal workspace and takes you straight to your dashboard. Your credit balance is visible immediately, along with the option to start your first project.
There’s no separate onboarding flow to click through — your account is fully active and ready to use right away.
Step 6: (Optional) Set Up Your Account Profile
Before diving in, it’s worth a minute to visit lovable.dev/settings/account (or click the workspace switcher in the top-left corner → Settings → Your Account).
From here you can set a display name, add a profile photo, link additional sign-in methods, and turn on two-factor authentication — worth enabling if you plan to use the account for real projects.

What Happens Next
That’s it — your account is live. You’ll have five daily credits ready to use immediately, resetting automatically every 24 hours, with no card on file and no expiration on the account itself.
FAQ
Do I need a credit card to create a Lovable AI account?
No. Signing up requires no credit card and no payment details of any kind — you can register with just an email address or a social login and start using the platform immediately.
Does the Lovable free account expire?
No. The free plan is a permanent tier, not a trial. Your account stays active and your daily credits keep resetting for as long as you keep the account.
Which sign-up method should I choose?
Any of the four options (email, Google, GitHub, Apple) create the identical free account with the same features and credits. Google is usually fastest since there’s no new password to remember.
Do I need to verify my email to start using Lovable?
Only if you sign up with email and password — click the link in the verification email to activate your account. Signing up with Google, GitHub, or Apple verifies automatically.
What do I get immediately after signing up?
You land directly in your dashboard with your personal workspace already created, your credit balance visible, and five daily credits ready to use — no additional setup required before you can start building.
