Create your Paak account

GETTING STARTED · 1/6 Reading time : 3 min Updated May 29, 2026
Setting up your club takes about 1 minute. A 4-field form, then 2 optional steps (federation + institutional sharing) that only appear if there's something to propose. You can always skip them and come back from settings later.

Step by step

  1. Go to paak.club and click "Get Started".
  2. Create your account with your email address — authentication is handled by Hanko (passkey, no password).
  3. Step 1 — Quick Setup form. Fill in four fields:
    • Your name
    • Your club name
    • Country (defaults to France)
    • Your main sport
    An optional accordion lets you enter nonprofit identifiers (SIREN, RNA for French associations) to trigger automatic verification. Not required.
  4. Step 2 — Your federation (optional). If your club is affiliated with one or more sport federations, pick them here. It's used to tailor the next step. You can skip and add a federation anytime from Settings → Federations.
  5. Step 3 — Institutional sharing (optional). Based on your postal code and federation, Paak proposes the sport institutions that could follow your activity (your departmental CDOS, regional CROS, federation). Each row is pre-ticked but independently uncheckable, and fully reversible from Settings → Territorial sharing. If nothing matches (for example your postal code doesn't match a provisioned CDOS), the step is skipped automatically.
  6. You land on your Dashboard — your club is up and running.
