## Link GitHub account
You can get free access to all Pro and Team features with the GitHub Student Developer Pack.
To link your GitHub account:
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
#### Verify your GitHub status
First, you must have a verified GitHub Education account. If you haven't done this yet, follow the [official GitHub Student Guide](https://education.github.com/pack) to get started.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
#### Wait for activation
Please note that there is a difference between being Verified and Activated. GitHub may approve your application, but access to partner offers (like Termius) is only available once your status is fully **activated**. This transition can sometimes take a few days.
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
#### Link to Termius
Once your GitHub Education access is active, you can link it to your Termius account:
* Navigate to the [account management portal](https://account.termius.com/) > `For Students`
* Click `Link your GitHub account`
* Sign in to GitHub and authorize Termius
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
GitHub may take some time to activate your access after verification. If you cannot link your GitHub account yet, try again in a few hours.
If you experience issues linking your GitHub account, see the [troubleshooting guide](/help-center/faq/how-can-i-get-termius-for-free-with-github-student-developer-pack.md).
{% hint style="info" %}
Your **GitHub Student Developer Pack** access must be verified and activated in your GitHub account before linking.
