Setting Up Your Account

What is this?

When your accounting firm sets you up on Digital Tax Software, you will receive an email invitation to create your account. This article walks you through the steps to get set up and log in for the first time.

When will I receive this?

Your accounting firm will send you an invitation when they are ready to add you to Digital Tax software. Keep an eye on your inbox — the email will come from support@apari-digital.com on behalf of your firm.

If you haven't received an email, check your junk or spam folder. If it's not there, contact your accounting firm and ask them to resend the invitation.

How to set up your account

  1. Open the invitation email and click the link “Complete account set up”.

  2. You will be taken to a page where you can create your password. Choose something secure and make a note of it.

  3. Once your password is set, you will be prompted to log in. Use the email address the invitation was sent to, and the password you just created.

  4. After logging in, you will be taken to your dashboard where you can start using Digital Tax software.


Your login email address is the one your accounting firm used to invite you. You cannot change this during setup — if it's incorrect, contact your firm.

If you are paying for your own subscription

If your accounting firm has set you up on a self-pay basis, you will be shown a payment screen when you first log in. You will need to enter your card details to activate your account and access all features.

  1. Enter your card details on the payment screen.

  2. Once your payment is confirmed, you will be taken straight to your dashboard.


Your subscription is billed directly to you. If you have any questions about billing or pricing, contact our support team by clicking on the ‘help’ in the bottom right of your software.




Need help?

If you are still unsure or need further help you can contact your accounting firm or our Digital Tax Software support team by submitting a ticket at the bottom of the page.
