- Step 3: Open the email Finish setting up your school on iComply and use its link within 48 hours. It works once.
- Step 4: On Add your school, enter the School name and Your address (your school's own web address, suggested from the name and checked as you type).
- Step 5: Choose your State or territory, Sector, School type and How many students are enrolled? Your enrolment sets your price. See School pricing.

- Step 7: Check Your packs. People & Volunteers, Gate & Access, Assets & Plant and Audit & Quality are ticked because schools usually use them. Every pack is included in your price; Integrations, Insights & AI and Managed Service are priced separately.
- Step 8: Enter Your name and a Password of at least 10 characters.

You land in the set-up guide. See The set-up guide. Your 30-day free trial has started, and the menu shows Free trial with the days left.
Your first jobs
Until your register has someone on it, your Dashboard shows a Getting started card with these steps:
- Step 1: Check your requirements: what each kind of provider must hold. The iComply presets suit most schools. See Requirements and presets.
- Step 2: Add your first provider: email an invitation from Invites. See Invite a contractor or provider.
- Step 3: Set up the front desk: open the kiosk on the office iPad. See The front desk.
- Step 4: Invite your colleagues: give the front office and business manager their own sign-in in Users & access. See Invite your team.
Common questions
- Do I have to set up two-step sign-in? Not unless your school turns on Require two-step sign-in for everyone at this school, but we recommend it. See Two-step sign-in.
- I skipped the enrolment. Admins see How many students are enrolled at your school on every page until it's set; until then you're shown the small-school price.
- Can I change my packs later? Yes, any time in Settings → Your packs. See Packs for schools.
Requirement presets and starter packs are a starting point, not legal advice. Your school decides what each provider must hold.
