Step 1: Sign Up on Groupify.
To sign up, you only need to visit www.groupify.co, fill in a few details about yourself, verify your email address and you are ready to get started.
Step 2: Create Your First Group
After verifying your email and logging in, the next step on your dashboard will be to create a new group.
Click on “Create group” and fill in important details about your community. Before filling in this information, it is important that you have these details handy — your group’s profile image, group name, group description, the welcome message for members (optional), and your community’s price.
Once you fill in these details and update your privacy settings, your group will be created automatically, and a sales page for your group will also be generated automatically based on the details you provided.
Step 3: Set up Your Wallet
Now that you have created your first group, the next step will be setting up your wallet to enable withdrawals. To do this, click on the “Wallet” button on your dashboard and fill in your bank details. We will pay out your group earnings whenever you initiate a withdrawal.
Step 4: Share Your Group Link to Start Inviting Others
Now that your group has been created and you have filled in your wallet details, the next step is to start sharing a link to your sales page so people can join your community.
To get your sales page link, click the “groups” button on your dashboard and select the group you just created.
Click the “group link” button to copy the link to your sales page and the “external page” button to open your sales pages in another tab. Share this link with potential members of your community and that’s it!
Bonus Step: Get Familiar With Your Dashboard
Your dashboard on Groupify was created to give you real-time data on your group activities. Important to assist your community marketing and retention efforts.
Your main dashboard (Home) shows an overview of your community, your wallet balance, the number of members you have in all your groups and the total revenue you have made on Groupify.

Your group dashboard basically shows you details on your sales page, an overview of your group, leads that tried to join your group but stopped, and more details on each member of your group, among other things.
