# How to onboard a customer

> Create a customer profile and get them ready to use their portal.

## Overview

As a partner or agency, onboarding a customer is the first step to setting up their portal experience.

In the Partner Portal, customer onboarding is designed to be fast.

## What you’ll need

* Customer name and contact details
* Which portal URL you want to use (subdomain or custom domain)

## Before you onboard customers

Make sure your whitelabel portal is set up:

* A subdomain or verified custom domain is configured
* Customer portal is enabled

If it’s not complete, Knotie AI Pro will show a reminder banner inside Customers.

## Steps

1. In the Partner Portal, go to **Customers**.
2. Click **Quick Onboard**.
3. Fill in the customer details.
4. Confirm and submit.

## Free Forever limits

On Free Forever, you can onboard up to **2 customers**.

If you reach the limit, the app will show an upgrade prompt.

## After onboarding

From the Customers list you can:

* Open **Manage** to change customer settings
* **Preview** the customer portal (opens a temporary preview window)
* **Reset** the customer’s portal password
* **Block** portal access if needed
