# Verify Your Email Address

**TL;DR Summary**\
After registering or adding a new email, we send a 6-digit verification code (or magic link) to prove you own the address. This step is required once per email and takes under 20 seconds.

**Why Use This? (Value Proposition)**

* Prevents fake accounts and spam submissions
* Guarantees you receive CFP notifications, review assignments, and invitations
* Required for password reset and some SSO providers

**Step-by-Step Guide**

1. After you enter your email at **[https://app.callforpaper.org/register](https://app.callforpaper.org/register)** or **/login**,\
   we instantly send a verification email.
2. Open the email → click **Verify Email Address** (or copy the 6-digit code).
3. You’re automatically logged in and redirected to your dashboard.

**Pro-Tips & Best Practices**

* Add **[no-reply@app.callforpaper.org](mailto:no-reply@app.callforpaper.org)** to your contacts to avoid spam folders.
* The code expires in 10 minutes — request a new one instantly if needed.

**Common Issues & Troubleshooting**

* “I didn’t receive the email” → check spam/promotions, then click **Resend code**.
* “Link says already used” → you’re already verified! Just log in normally.
