🔐 Accounts can only be created after being sent a link from the production. 🖥️ Creating an account is accessible on all devices.
Overview
If you've received an open (link or qr code) or locked invite, you'll be prompted to log in to your Circus account. However, if you don't have an account, you can create one by clicking on 'Continue with Google' (if your email is connected there) or click 'Sign Up' at the bottom of the page to use your email.
Creating an Account
Continue with Google
If you choose to sign up with Google, click the “Continue with Google” button. If you're signed into multiple Google accounts, you’ll be asked to pick one. After selecting your preferred account, Google will link it to Circus automatically. You'll then be prompted to set up multi-factor authentication (MFA). Once that’s done, you’ll land on your Circus dashboard.
📌 Tired of remembering your password? Use Google SSO—it's the easiest and most secure way to create or log into your Circus account.
Email and Password
If you choose to create an account using your email address not linked to a Google account, you'll be asked to:
Enter your legal first and last name – this will appear on all your agreements. How you want to be credited can be set later in your work profile.
Enter the email you use for work, then create a strong password using the following criteria:
A minimum of 12 characters
at least one uppercase letter
at least one lowercase letter
at least one special character (ie. $, % or &)
Cannot include your first or last name
Check the box below to agree to our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy, then click Create Account.
📌 Tired of remembering your password?: Use a password manager like Dashlane to securely remember your password for you. Each time you log in, Dashlane will pre-fill your credentials for faster access. Or, use Log in with Google — it's the easiest and most secure way to create or log into your Circus account.
Next, ensure that your email is correct on the confirmation page, otherwise you will not receive any emails from Circus. If the email is not correct, click Edit Email to replace the email address. Then click Resend Email Confirmation.
👉 If you navigate away from the Confirm your Email page, simply Log In. If your email is still unconfirmed you will navigate to the page.
If the email is correct, please go to your email and click Confirm Email to activate your account.
You'll then be prompted to set up multi-factor authentication (MFA). Once complete, you’ll land on your Circus dashboard—where you may already see an invite to onboard to a production. If not, simply return to the email invite, link, or QR code provided by the production and follow it again.
