Create the account and add Tidio to your site

Create the Tidio account, use the integration offered by your site platform or install the provided code, match the widget to your brand, and verify it as a real visitor.

Step 1: Create the account

Register on Tidio and enter the website you plan to connect. Check the current plan and trial information in your own account because allowances can change.

Do not paste scripts into random templates. Use the location recommended by your site's platform and keep a record of what was added.

Step 3: Match the widget to the brand

Adjust color, placement, greeting, and avatar so the widget is recognizable without covering important controls on desktop or mobile.
