# ARDGE Account

> Link the device to your ARDGE cloud account, which carries device, model and application license binding

## Overview

ARDGE Account links this ARX to your ARDGE cloud account.

That account is what carries device, model and application licensing and other extended services. If you bound the device during [initialization](https://docs.ardge.com/en/guide/start-here/init), the current state shows here.

## Sign in

If you already have an ARDGE account, use **Sign in** to bind the device.

## Sign up

If you don't have one yet, follow the flow the screen offers to create it, then come back to ARX to bind.

## Unbind

Use **Unbind** when you need to release the device from the current account.
