| 9 | +### Types of Cloud Accounts |
| 10 | + |
| 11 | +We offer two types of Cloud Accounts: |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +*Free Tier Accounts*: After you sign up for the free [Oracle Cloud promotion](https://signup.cloud.oracle.com) or sign up for a paid account, you’ll get a welcome email. The email provides you with your cloud account details and sign in credentials. |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +*Oracle Cloud Paid Accounts*: When your tenancy is provisioned, Oracle sends an email to the default administrator at your company with the sign-in credentials and URL. This administrator can then create a user for each person who needs access to the Oracle Cloud. Check your email or contact your administrator for your credentials and account name. |

| 28 | + |
| 29 | +1. Go to [cloud.oracle.com](https://cloud.oracle.com) and enter your **Cloud Account Name** (tenancy name), and then click **Next**. This is the name you chose while creating your account in the previous section. _It's NOT your email address_. If you've forgotten the name, review the confirmation email. |

| 33 | +2. Click the **Sign in with an identity domain** drop-down list and select an **Identity Domain** such as **Default**, and then click **Next**. |

| 38 | + |

| 43 | +4. Based on the Multi-factor authentication setup for your account, provide authentication to sign into the account. For example, click **Allow** on the app (or enter your **authentication code** and click **Verify**) based on the authentication setup. For more details, refer the [Managing Multifactor Authentication documentation](https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/Identity/Tasks/usingmfa.htm) |
