After you sign up to Mambu, you'll receive an email confirming your registration and a link where you'll be able to login using the username and password you chose.

When you head to yourorganizationsname.mambu.com you will see the login screen, which also shows Mambu's version and special announcements at the bottom, along with the usual login credentials and password recovery link.


Successful Login? Welcome to Mambu!


Are you the first person in your organization to login?

Then you will see that there is no information in the system, no clients, no products, accounts, or other users. The database is empty and you will need to add that information before start using Mambu.

This is a simple process that doesn't require any particular technical skills, but the person doing it should know how your organization works in detail, its processes and policies. So if you want to pass this task to someone else, all you need to do at this point is to create a new user in Mambu and set the appropriate permissions so that the new user can access Mambu and start populating it.


The logical steps to start adding information in Mambu
There's a sequence that you should follow when adding your organization's information to Mambu. You can change some of the steps order, but doing it this way will make the whole process much easier and efficient.
