# Creating separate accounts

Having multiple separate accounts can be useful, e.g.:

1. to have separate development/testing accounts from your production account
2. to manage multiple client accounts (e.g. for Cobrowse partners, or self-hosted clients)

To do this, you must register a new account at [https://cobrowse.io/register](https://cobrowse.io/register) (or your self-hosted domain) with an email address **that is not currently added to any Cobrowse.io accounts**. Easy ways to do this include:

- using the additional username "+" syntax in email addresses, e.g. if you are already registered to Cobrowse using joe@example.com, then you should be able to use joe+1@example.com, joe+clientName@example.com, or any other supported text after the "+" sign and still receive the emails at joe@example.com. Most mail providers support this.
- use a team email address to set the accounts up, and later remove this address so that it is no longer associated with the account.

We recommend using a descriptive company name, such as Your Company \[DEV\], so that it is clearly labelled when you are [switching between accounts](https://support.cobrowse.io/switching-accounts?hsLang=en).

After setting the account up, you can add your existing email addresses (and others) to this account in the usual way by [Adding Team Members](https://support.cobrowse.io/configuring-team-members?hsLang=en).
