The Paratext Registry will let you create a sign in with any valid email address, but if you then request a registration code as a member of a translation organization, your organization’s approver may expect you to be using your organizational email address, as this makes it easier to confirm your identity. It will also typically keep you from having to create and remember a password: if your organization’s email is on Google Apps, you will see a “G” icon next to your email address and can simply sign in via Google.
If you are not a member of a translation organization, you can use any email address. If it is not a Google/Gmail address, you will be prompted to create a password.
To change your email address once you have registered, see How do I change my email in the registry?
Paratext 7 users: You do NOT need to use the same email address that you registered with in Paratext 7. Once you are signed in, just provide your existing Registration Name and Registration Code, and your existing identity will be linked to your new Paratext 8 registration.
