# Add Account
To initiate customer onboarding, we must add the account and project onto Projetly.
{% hint style="info" %}
Account is a customer organization or entity. All the projects run for the same entity are linked to one account.
{% endhint %}
**Navigation:** Accounts > Add Project
{% hint style="warning" %}
You cannot add an account without adding a project. Accounts can only be created with a project.
{% endhint %}
There are two steps in adding a project.
### Step 1: Adding the Account
The first step to add a project is to add an account. If you add your first project, you can create the project and account simultaneously. Click on the dropdown and select 'Add New Account.'
{% hint style="info" %}
If you add a new project to an existing account, you can use the dropdown to find existing accounts.
