This article will guide existing individual Bitwarden users (Free or Premium) through the process of transitioning to an Organizations plan (Free, Families, Teams, or Enterprise) in order to start securely sharing data from Organizations with friends, family, co-workers, a department, or an entire company.

{% callout success %} If you're looking for how to upgrade an existing Free Organization to a paid Organization, see this FAQ item instead. {% endcallout %}

Start Your Organization

Complete the following steps to start your Organization:

  1. Log in to your Web Vault{:target="_blank"}.

  2. Select the New Organization button.

    {%image /organizations/new-org-button-overlay.png Select New Organization %}

  3. On the New Organization screen, enter an Organization Name for your new Organization and the Billing Email we can reach you at.

    {% callout info %}Paid Organizations (Families, Teams, or Enterprise) have a 7 Day Free Trial built in. We won't charge you until your trial is over. You can cancel your subscription at any time in the Settings tab of your Organization. {% endcallout %}

  4. If you're creating an Organization on behalf of a business:

    • Check the This account is owned by a business checkbox.
    • Provide your Business Name.

    Checking the This account is owned by a business checkbox will automatically filter your plan options to those suited to businesses. If you represent a business interested in testing secure sharing using a Free Organization, leave this option unchecked.

  5. In the Choose Your Plan section, select which type of Organization to create. Options include:

    • Free: For testing or personal users to share with 1 other user. Learn more.
    • Families: For personal use, to share with family & friends. Learn more.
    • Teams: For businesses and other team organizations. Learn more.
    • Enterprise: For businesses and other large organizations. Learn more.

    {% callout info %}Paid Organizations (Families, Teams, or Enterprise) include premium features for all enrolled users. For more information about Premium features, see About Bitwarden Plans. {% endcallout %}

  6. If you selected a Paid Organization, enter the following information:

    • For Teams or Enterprise, enter the number of User Seats you need. Seats will be added if you exceed this number, unless you specify a limit.
    • For Families, Teams, or Enterprise, enter the amount of Additional Storage (GB) you need. You plan comes with 1 GB of shared encrypted file attachments, and you can add additional storage later if needed.
    • For Teams or Enterprise, select whether you'd like to be billed Annually or Monthly. Families Organizations may only be billed annually.
    • For any Paid Organization, enter your Payment Information

  7. Click Submit to start using your new Organization.
