Create your Xfinity ID

1. To create your Xfinity ID, go to xfinity.com/getstarted or click Create an Xfinity ID from any sign-in page.
   
   
   
2. Verify your account by confirming some account details.
   • You can use either your mobile phone number or Social Security number (SSN), then click Continue.
   • If you choose to verify by text message, enter the mobile phone number associated with your account, then click Continue.
     
     
     
   • If you choose to verify by SSN, you must enter the last four digits of the account holder's SSN, date of birth, and a phone number associated with the account. Then, click Continue.
     
     
     
3. Once your account has been verified, you'll have the option to enter your existing, personal email address.
   • Comcast will send you a link to verify that email address.
   • You'll have 72 hours to click the link sent to your personal email.
     • If you don't click the link, your non-Comcast address will no longer be valid.
       • You can still log in using the Xfinity ID or your Comcast.net email address.
       • You can also add an email address to your account from the Settings tab in your account.
4. When you're all set, you'll see a confirmation page with different ways to access your account and mobile applications.
5. By clicking Continue, you'll either be sent back to the page you initially visited, or automatically logged in to your account.
   
   

Note: Access your account on your smartphone or tablet (download the free app at Apple or Android). Sign in with your new Xfinity ID and password.

FAQs

Can I use a non-Comcast email address to log in to Xfinity apps and websites?
Yes, you can use your personal email address and/or mobile telephone number to log in to all Xfinity apps and websites. You'll need to add it to your profile first in your account and respond to the verification message. Until you verify, you can't use it to log in to Xfinity applications.

What's the difference between my primary Xfinity ID and my preferred email address?
Currently, your primary Xfinity ID is your xfinity.com ID/email address. Your preferred email address is the email address you designated as your preferred one from the Settings tab in your account (or when you originally created your Xfinity ID and password). For example, your preferred email address could be your Gmail address.

Why do I need to use my SSN to create my Xfinity ID?
In some cases, customers are required to provide the last four digits of their SSN for security and verification purposes. This is to prevent unauthorized access to your account(s). There are other options to verify your account, including a verified contact method (personal email or mobile telephone number). Once you've added a contact method and verified it belongs to you, you can use it instead of your SSN if you forget your password and need to access your account.

Why do I need to create an Xfinity ID and password?
When you create your Xfinity ID and password, you'll have access to all Comcast customer mobile and web applications. You'll be able to:

• Immediately start watching some TV content on your computer, smartphone or tablet.
• Manage upcoming appointments, pay your bill and more in your account.
• Access all Xfinity WiFi hotspots nationwide if you're a qualifying Xfinity Internet customer.
  
  

How do I add and invite additional users to my Xfinity account?
If you want to give other members of your household access to your master Xfinity account, you can manage user roles and permissions on Xfinity accounts.
