Follow

We're excited that you want to join the Couchsurfing Community! If you would like to create a Couchsurfing account, first download the Mobile App onto your device.

Once it is installed you can either create an account using your Facebook account or you can manually create an account using your Email Address.

Facebook

First, make sure you are logged into your Facebook account.

  • For Android devices: Check your Facebook app or web browser.
  • For iOS devices: Go into your Phone Settings and check the Facebook section as well as logging in to Facebook using your web browser or the Facebook app.

Once you are logged in to Facebook, all you need to do to create an account is tap the "Continue with Facebook" button. 

Note: if you already have a Couchsurfing account and you would like to connect it with your Facebook account, please do so from the website. Once you connect your accounts on the website, you will be able to login to the app with your Facebook account.
