# Domain auto-grouping

When a user registers on the platform it is uniquely identified by his email. New users usually get a fresh new opensource account, but if their email domain is recognized to be of a company that has a paid account in Meterian, then the new user is added to that account. Note that there are obvious exclusions such as  the usage of a "free" email is used, like "gmail.com" or "hotmail.com",&#x20;

So, if the company "acme.com" starts a paid subscription to Meterian, then all the users with an email in the same domain will be added automatically to such account.&#x20;

It is also possible to group user into an account based on the Github organisation they belong to. This is available for organisations on GitHub, and [it can be set up](/the-meterian-webapp/advanced-functionalities/auto-grouping/how-to-set-an-organization.md) using the Meterian dashboard.
