# Enabling self sign-up
## How to enable self sign-up for a registry
Self sign-up will allow users with a specific email extension (e.g. @example.org) to sign up for an account on a registry without the help of an Administrator.
{% hint style="info" %}
You must be an Administrator of the Registry to be able to perform these actions.
{% endhint %}
1\. Select from the dashboard side panel, then select .
2\. Toggle the 'Enable' checkbox as desired to enable or disable self sign-up. If desired, you can also use the 'Message' field to add a message that will appear when a user selects the "Sign Up" option from the registry landing page.
3\. Select under 'Allowed Emails' if you wish to add allowed email extensions.
**Note:** Ensure you only add one email extension per item line.
5\. Select once satisfied. Users with the allowed email extensions will now be able to self sign-up to the registry and will see the 'Sign Up' option when going to the registry landing page.
