Getting started
Getting started with Templio
Last updated 2026-09-24
Templio sets up a new agency workspace through a short onboarding wizard — no card required, and you can change any of these choices later.
Sign up
Create your account, then you'll land on /onboarding, a five-step form:
- Workspace name — your agency's name, shown throughout the dashboard.
- Workspace URL — the subdomain contractors and approvers will use (e.g.
youragency.templio.co.uk). We suggest one from your workspace name; edit it if you want something different. - Invoicing — choose native invoicing (Templio generates PDFs) or Xero (you'll connect it properly later — see Connecting Xero). If you pick native invoicing you can optionally add your bank details now for self-bill remittance.
- Quickstart — optionally seed a few sample clients, contracts and timesheets so the dashboard isn't empty on day one. Sample data is marked internally so it never appears on your invoices or billing.
- Invite your team — add colleagues by email and role (Admin, Finance, Manager, Member) straight away, or skip and invite them later from Settings → Team.
What you get immediately
Your trial starts the moment your workspace is created: 14 days, no card required. During the trial you can do everything — add clients, contracts and contractors, submit and approve timesheets, raise invoices. See Billing, trial and subscription for what happens when the trial ends.
