## Quick start steps

Follow these steps to start using Wrapbook:

### Step 1: Accept the invitation

- You’ll receive an invitation email from your production company through Wrapbook
- The subject line will be: **“Welcome, [Your Name]! - [Project Name]”** and the email will come from @wrapbook.com
- The email includes your project details and work terms
- Click **Join Project** in the invitation email
- On the following page, click **Accept Invitation**

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** If you’re represented by an agent, your invitation may not include a link. Instead, your agent will receive the link to complete onboarding on your behalf. To learn more, see [How to use Wrapbook when you have an agent](/v1/docs/how-to-use-wrapbook-when-you-have-an-agent).

💡 **Tip:** Already have a Wrapbook account? You can also accept your invitation directly from your Wrapbook account — no email link needed. Look for the **inbox icon with a notification count** in the top-right corner of any page while logged into Wrapbook, or go to your [All projects dashboard](/v1/docs/all-projects-dashboard-worker) and find a project with a *New* alert. Click **Accept invite** to get started.

### Step 2: Create your account

- Enter the same email address where you received the invitation
- Enter your legal first and last name
- Create a secure password
- Provide your Social Security Number (double-check for accuracy)
- To learn more, see [Your Wrapbook Account](https://help.wrapbook.com/docs/your-wrapbook-account-worker)

---

### Step 3: Verify your account

- Check your email inbox for a verification message from Wrapbook
- Click the verification link to activate your account
- If you don’t see the email, check your Spam folder or search for messages sent from @wrapbook.com

---

### Step 4: Complete your required startwork

- Fill out your tax forms (W-4 and state tax forms)
- Complete your I-9 verification
- Review and accept any additional production-specific documents
- To learn more, see [Onboarding](/v1/docs/onboarding)

---

### Step 5: Set up your payment method

- Learn [How to set up your payment method](/v1/docs/how-to-set-up-your-payment-method)
- Choose if you want to receive your payments via direct deposit or mailed check
- Confirm that your details are accurate to ensure on-time payment

---

### Step 6: Submit your timecards, invoices, and expenses

- [**Timecards**](/v1/docs/timecards-workers-agents)**:** Enter your worked hours, breaks, and any overtime as required, then submit before the project deadline to avoid payroll delays
- [**Invoices (Loan-outs only)**](https://help.wrapbook.com/docs/about-allowances-expenses-workers#as-a-loan-out-how-do-i-submit-an-invoice-to-get-paid-for-work-ive-done-on-a-production)**:** If you’re working as a loan-out company, you’ll need to submit invoices instead of timecards
- [**Expenses**](/v1/docs/how-to-add-allowances-and-expenses)**:** You can request reimbursement for approved costs (such as mileage, kit rentals, or other production-related expenses)

Documents filled out by workers at the beginning of the work, which contains specific, vital information needed to process payroll.
