Creating Your Account
Get started with Perle Labs by creating your decentralized, self-custodial account using one of our supported authentication methods.
Authentication Methods
Perle Labs supports three secure ways to create and access your account:
1. Wallet Connection (Recommended)
Best for: Users who already have a Solana-compatible wallet and prefer full control of their account and rewards.
Fully decentralized: No email or password required.
Instant access: Once connected, your wallet becomes your identity on the network.
Direct reward integration: Earn and claim rewards directly through your wallet.
Self-custodial: You always control your private keys and assets; Perle Labs never stores them.
Tip: If you’re new to Solana wallets, Phantom is a great starting option — it’s secure, browser-friendly, and integrates seamlessly with Perle Labs.
2. Google Authentication (Fast & Secure)
Best for: Users who prefer a quick, familiar login experience with built-in security.
Click “Sign in with Google.”
You’ll be redirected to Google’s OAuth system to verify your identity.
No separate password required. Perle Labs only receives your basic account info (name, email, and profile image).
Your contributor profile is automatically created and linked to your Google account.
Easy recovery: If you switch devices or browsers, simply log in again using the same Google account.
Wallet upgrade: You can later connect your wallet to enable reward payouts and full web3 functionality.
Security Note: Perle Labs never accesses your Google credentials or inbox. Authentication happens entirely through Google’s secure OAuth system.
3. Email Authentication (Accessible & Simple)
Best for: Contributors who prefer traditional login without using external accounts or wallets.
Enter your email address and click “Login with Email.”
You’ll receive a one-time password (OTP) in your inbox.
Enter the code to verify and complete registration. No permanent password is needed.
Once verified, you can log in anytime using your email and a new OTP.
Wallet upgrade: You can later connect your wallet to enable reward payouts and full web3 functionality.
Tip: Check your spam folder if you don’t receive the OTP within a few minutes.
Account Setup Process
Choose Your Login Method: Select your preferred option: Wallet, Google, or Email.
Complete Verification: Follow the steps for your chosen method (OTP, Google OAuth, or wallet signature).
Enter Referral Code (Optional): If you were invited, enter your referral code to earn bonus points.
Set Up Your Profile: Add your name, avatar, and domain expertise (optional, but recommended).
Start Contributing: Once registered, you can immediately explore tasks, earn points, and begin building your reputation.
Referral Integration
Have a referral code? Enter it during signup to receive a bonus on your first completed task.
Your referrer earns a small percentage commission on your verified activity.
Don’t have a code? No problem, you can skip this step.
After registration, you can generate your own referral code and invite others to join the network.
Linking Multiple Accounts (Optional but Recommended)
Once your account is created, you can link multiple authentication methods for added flexibility and security:
Link a Wallet: If you signed up with Google or Email, connect a Solana wallet (Phantom, Solflare, Backpack, etc.) anytime to enable rewards and onchain participation.
Link Your Google or Email Account: If you joined with a wallet, you can connect Google or Email to simplify login and password recovery.
Linked accounts share the same profile, reputation score, and reward balance — ensuring your contributor identity remains unified across all login methods.
You can disconnect or change linked accounts at any time from your account settings.
Security and Privacy
All authentication options are encrypted end-to-end and protected by Cloudflare security verification to prevent spam and automated sign-ups.
No personal information is collected during this step, it’s purely a bot-prevention and access security measure.
After verification, you’ll proceed directly to the signup flow you selected (Google, Wallet, or Email).
Perle Labs never stores private keys, passwords, or sensitive account data.
All identity and wallet actions are verified through Cloudflare security checks and blockchain signatures.
By using Perle Labs, you agree to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, accessible during signup.
