Getting started

This walks you from sign-up to a live community in a few minutes.

1. Create your account

Go to app.citadel-hub.com and sign up with email or Discord.

2. Create your community

On first sign-in you'll name your community and pick a slug. The slug is your address on Citadel:

https://<your-slug>.sites.citadel-hub.com

Your community is the workspace everything else lives under — services, store, billing, and team.

3. Pick what you're launching

The dashboard's setup checklist asks what you want: a website, a Discord bot, a player store, or any combination. Your choice tailors the rest of the steps.

4. Set it up

• Website / bot — create the service and configure it (see Community website and Discord bot).
• Store — connect your game server, then create perks.

5. Go live

You can start a 14-day free trial (no card) to take a service live while you set things up, or subscribe to a plan. To sell to players you'll also connect your Stripe so payouts go to you.

The checklist on your dashboard tracks every step and always shows the next action — it disappears once you're live.

Tip: a service only goes live when it has an active subscription or trial. Until then it shows as pending.
