When a company invites you to Shor, onboarding is quick: three short screens and you’re set up. Tax forms and contract signing happen afterwards, from your dashboard.

​
Before You Start

Have ready:
  • The invitation email from your employer (check spam if needed)
  • A government-issued photo ID (passport, driver’s license, or national ID)
  • A phone or laptop with a camera for the selfie step

​
The Flow

1

Accept the Invitation

Click the link in your invitation email. It takes you to a signup page pre-filled with your name and email.
2

Create Your Account

Set a password or continue with SSO. Verify your email.
3

Confirm You're a Professional

On the role selection screen, choose I’m a Professional. You’re here to get paid.
4

Pick How You're Contracting

Tell us whether you’re working as an Individual (freelancer or independent contractor) or through a Business entity (your own company or LLC). If it’s a business, you’ll add the business name, registered address, and country and state of incorporation.
5

Verify Your Identity

Click Start Verification to open the secure verification session. Inside it, you’ll upload your ID, take a selfie for a liveness check, and provide any other information required for your country. Most verifications finish instantly.
Once verification completes, you land on your professional dashboard.

​
What Happens After Onboarding

From your dashboard, you’ll see any contracts waiting for signature. Signing a contract will:
  • Walk you through reviewing the agreement
  • Collect the right US tax form if required (W-9, W-8BEN, or W-8BEN-E)
  • Ask you to accept EOR terms if you’re being hired as a full EOR employee
  • Let you sign electronically
Payments land in your Shor account within minutes of your employer approving them; no setup required for that. Separately, when you want to withdraw to your own bank, link it from Finance → Connections.

​
Pausing and Resuming

If you need to step away mid-verification, just close the window. Your progress is saved; the button will say Continue Verification next time you come back.
