💡 Good to Know / Tip - Recommendation
If you are new to the world of cryptocurrencies and do not know what a wallet is, you can check our summary of basic concepts explained in Cryptocurrency Fundamentals in our Crypto Academy section. It will help you understand what a wallet is and other fundamental concepts in the crypto space like blockchain, token, network...

There are two types of registrations: as a **User/Freelancer** or as a **Company**. In this guide, we will refer to the “User/Freelancer” as **User** and the **Company** as **Client**. ## Registration as a User or Freelancer 👤 If we are looking for employment, either for a company as a salaried employee or as an independent professional or freelancer, we must register as a user on the application. We can do this in two ways: with a wallet or with an email. ### Registration with an Email To do this, on the page [trabajosonline.org](https://trabajosonline.org) click on the [**Sign Up**](https://trabajosonline.org/login) button and you will access the registration page.

To register, please complete the corresponding fields with your email address 📧, username 👤, and password 🔒. In this process, if you are registering as an individual user, make sure not to select the checkbox intended for company accounts 🏢.

After completing the form, you will receive a verification email 📨 in your inbox. If you do not find the email in your inbox, we recommend checking the spam folder 📁 and marking our email as safe.

Here we mark the email as safe ✅.

Once the email is in your inbox, proceed to activate your account by clicking on the provided link "Verify Your Email" to activate our account 🔗.

### Registration with a Wallet To register with a wallet, we must have the Metamask extension 🦊 installed on the browser we are using (Mozilla Firefox 🔥, Chrome 🌐, etc.). Check that the extension is active in your **browser**.

If you do not have a Wallet or want to know what a Cryptocurrency Wallet or Purse is and what you can do with it, you can visit What is a wallet

To do this, on our page [app.trabajosonline.org](https://app.trabajosonline.org) click on **Connect Wallet** (if we want to register with a wallet). Then, choose a wallet from those available; in this case, we will opt for **Metamask** 🦊.

From there, the Metamask extension 🦊 will open in the browser, where we select the wallet we want to use for the registration, which will also serve us to log in on the page 🔑. Once a wallet 👛 is selected, to verify that we are the owners of that wallet, we will be asked to sign a request with that wallet 🖊️.

⚠️ This request will not initiate a blockchain transaction, nor will it incur any gas fees.

This procedure is quite common and is also used by other cryptocurrency pages like OpenSea 🌊 and Binance ⚖️. ### Differences Between Wallet and Email The fundamental distinction lies in the ability of cryptocurrency wallets to manage payments through decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms. With a crypto wallet 💰, users can receive payments in various cryptocurrencies, taking advantage of the innovation and flexibility provided by DeFi solutions 📈. | | Payments | | | ------ | ------------ | ------------ | | | Crypto Coins | Fiat | | Wallet | Yes | Requires KYC | | Email | - | Requires KYC | ## Registration as a Company ### Registration with an Email To register, please complete the corresponding fields with your email address 📧, username 👤, and password 🔒.
