How do I create an account on Thumbtack?

Creating an Account on Thumbtack

A thumbtack account is essential in introducing your business to customers who need your services. Here, they can see photos of your work and read reviews from past clients. If you want to create an account on the platform without contacting customer support, these steps will help. 

1. Visit the Thumbtack Website

To create an account on Thumbtack, you must visit the company website. The homepage offers two options, "Sign Up" and the other "Join as a Pro." If you're joining as a client, click "Sign Up." If you're a service provider, click "Join as a Pro" in the next step.

2. Choose Your Account Type

As we’ve noted, Thumbtack offers two accounts: one for service providers and another for customers seeking services. Select the account type that aligns with your needs. If you are a professional looking to offer your services, click the "Pro" option. If you seek services and want to hire professionals, click the "Sign Up" option. Choosing the appropriate account type ensures that Thumbtack tailors the platform to your requirements.

3. Provide Basic Information

After choosing your account type, you must provide your first and last name and email address to set up your Thumbtack account. Your email must be valid and accessible, as Thumbtack will use it for communication purposes. Create a password that contains letters, numbers and special characters to enhance your account's security.

4. Define Your Location

Thumbtack operates across various locations, allowing users to connect with professionals in their area. You must specify your location to ensure accurate search results and relevant recommendations. The platform designates a field where you can enter your city, state or ZIP code. Thumbtack will use this information to match you with service providers or customers in your vicinity.

5. Choose Your Services

If you are a professional offering services, Thumbtack provides an opportunity to showcase your expertise by selecting the services you provide. Choose the categories that best align with your skills and offerings. Thumbtack offers many services, including home improvement, photography, tutoring and more.

6. Customize Your Profile

Creating a compelling profile on Thumbtack is essential to maximize your chances of attracting customers. Upload a professional photo of yourself, write a captivating bio highlighting your skills and experience and include any certifications or qualifications that set you apart from competitors. Customizing your profile helps build credibility and trust with potential customers, increasing your chances of securing projects.

7. Agree to Thumbtack's Terms and Conditions

Before finalizing the account creation process, reviewing and agreeing to Thumbtack's terms and conditions is crucial. Take the time to read through the terms to familiarize yourself with the rights and responsibilities associated with using the platform. After reading, check the box indicating your acceptance.

Why does GetHuman Write How-to Guides for Thumbtack Problems?

GetHuman has been working for over 10 years on sourcing information about big organizations like Comcast in order to help customers resolve customer service issues faster. We started with contact information and fastest ways to reach a human at big companies. Particularly ones with slow or complicated IVR or phone menu systems. Or companies that have self-serve help forums instead of a customer service department. From there, we realized that consumers still needed more detailed help solving the most common problems, so we expanded to this set of guides, which grows every day. And if you spot any issues with our What do I do if my Xfinity TV or internet is out? guide, please let us know by sending us feedback. We want to be as helpful as possible. If you appreciated this guide, please share it with your favorite people. Our free information and tools is powered by you, the customer. The more people that use it, the better it gets.
