Summary

Overview of what a Sage account offers, along with detailed steps to help you sign up.

Description

Previously known as your Sage ID, your Sage account gives you access to the different Sage products and services through a single sign-on.

This means you can use the same email and password to log into Sage Accounting, Sage Payroll, and other services.  

If you start using a new Sage product or service in the future, you can log in with your existing Sage account.

When you edit your Sage account, like changing your password, it updates across all the devices you use.
