# About Game Accounts

The different types of accounts in the Gate Of Abyss gaming system.

### GOA App Account

GOA App accounts are used to buy, mint, and manage your GOALAND purchases. 

<https://app.gateofabyss.com/>

You will be asked to provide the following credentials during account creation:&#x20;

* Username
* Email Address
* Password

There will be a verification email in order to confirm that your email address is valid.

By creating a GOA App account, a game account (see below) will be created for you automatically.&#x20;

### Game Account

Completely new players may create a new account directly in the Gate of Abyss game interface.

You will be asked to provide the following credentials during account creation:&#x20;

* Username
* Email Address
* Password

If you had previously created a GOA App account, a game account has been created for you automatically. There is no need to create a new account. Log into the game using your GOA App credentials.

### Account Linking (For Those With GOA App Accounts)

GOALAND plots are attributed to your GOA App account. In order to access your GOALAND plots in the game, you must use your GOA App account to log into the game.

### Account Linking (For Those With Game Accounts)

Players with only a game account created may create a GOA App account with the same email address used for the game account. In doing so, all GOALAND plots purchased or awarded in future will be accessible in the game.

### What Can I Do If My Game Account Is Not Linked To My GOA App Account?

If you own a separate game account and GOA App account that are not linked to each other (i.e. created using a different email address) but you wish to access your GOALAND plots in the game, there are two options:

* [Mint your GOALAND plots and transfer it to another wallet.](/gateofabyss/gate-of-abyss-land/land-collection/creating-and-minting-an-nft-collection.md) Sign up for a new [GOA App](https://app.gateofabyss.com/) account with the same credentials as your game account, and [connect this wallet to the new GOA App account](/gateofabyss/web-3-connectivity/connecting-your-wallet-to-your-goa-app-account.md). (Gas Fees involved for the transfer of GOALAND between wallets)
* Start using your GOA App account as your main gaming account (essentially having two game characters).
