anonymous sign up
# support-questions
b
Is there a way to handle anonymous signup (non-email identifier)?
r
hey @beestreams what would be the identifier of the user in this case?
b
I found this now: https://supertokens.com/docs/thirdparty/common-customizations/sessions/anonymous-session and that might cover our usecase. We want a user to signup, and do stuff. When stuff is done they would be able to upgrade the account and keep the stuff if that makes sense.
r
Right. But when they sign up, what info will they provide? For example, will there be no email?
b
Thinking it might be a device ID to begin with. With this we could have an anonymous session, register some metadata and then upgrade the account when they are ready
r
right. Sounds good
