# Add Collectors

## How to create collectors

To get started, you’ll need to add all your active collectors to the system.

**Here's how:**

1. Click the **"Create"** button in the [Quick Actions](/cloud-drm/getting-started/user-interface.md#section-c-quick-actions) section.
2. Choose **"Collectors"** from the dropdown menu.
3. **Fill in** all relevant fields.
4. Click **Save.**

Your collector is now added and will appear in the collectors list.

When using any Donary device, the user can sign in with their phone number, and a collector will be created automatically. For the DRM, however, the collector must be created in advance.
