You can create a CLEAR account either online or in person at an airport.
Creating a CLEAR Account
Here's a breakdown of how to get started with CLEAR:
Online Enrollment
- Visit the CLEAR website: Go to the official CLEAR website.
- Start the Application: Look for the "Sign Up" or "Enroll Now" button and click it.
- Provide Basic Information: You'll be asked to enter information like your name, email address, and zip code. The online application is designed to be short and straightforward.
- Complete Enrollment at the Airport: If you start the application online, you'll need to finish the process in person at an airport the next time you fly. This involves identity verification.
In-Person Enrollment at the Airport
- Visit a CLEAR Enrollment Center: Find a CLEAR enrollment center at an airport. These are typically located near security checkpoints.
- Complete the Application: A CLEAR representative will guide you through the application process.
- Identity Verification: You will need to provide identification documents, such as a driver's license or passport.
- Biometric Scanning: CLEAR uses biometric data for identification. You'll have your fingerprints and iris scanned.
Key Considerations:
- Regardless of whether you start online or in person, you'll need to complete the enrollment process at an airport to verify your identity and complete the biometric scanning.
- Be prepared to show valid photo identification (driver’s license, passport, or other government-issued ID).
- Keep in mind the cost of a CLEAR membership; it's a paid service.
