AFL iD is the new and free way to sign up and access an array of AFL digital products and applications. Over time, unique features, benefits and promotions will be accessible through your AFL iD.

To create your own AFL iD, simply visit one of the participating applications listed.

During the registration process, you will be asked to verify your email address. To do so, check the inbox of the email address you used to register, open the “Activate your AFL iD Account” email, and then click on the “Verify Email” button.

If you do not  receive the “Activate your AFL iD Account” email, please check your Spam or Junk folders. If you are using a corporate email, your IT security may have quarantined the email and it may need to be released.

You can also trigger this email again, described in the next FAQ"What if I don't verify my account in time?"

If you do not verify your account in time, the next time you attempt to sign in via AFL iD you will be prompted to verify your account.

During this step, you can resend your verification email to your nominated email address.

Activation emails are sent to your nominated email address during the activation. Please check your Spam or Junk folders. If you are using a corporate email, your IT security may have quarantined the email and it may need to be released.

If you did not receive the activation email, please try to login again and it will prompt you to send a second activation email.

If, after a number of attempts, you do not receive the activation email,, please get in touch via our Contact Us section. 

AFL iD will capture your mobile number as password recovery via SMS will be an option. We are also investigating greater security methods for your account in the future, which will require multi-factor authentication. 

During registration, you will be asked to verify your account via an SMS code, but you will be able to skip this step if you wish. 

Should you change your mobile number over time, you can login to the AFL iD Profile Manager, and update this in Account Details.

AFL iD is designed for user self service. To reset your password you will need to:

1. Navigate to the Sign In screen for AFL iD on a participating application
2. Enter your email and select ‘Let’s Go’
3. Select ‘Forgot Password’
4. A prompt will be given to either perform an SMS or Email password reset
5. For SMS, a code will be sent to your mobile. Enter the code and then reset your password.
   For Email, a password reset email will be sent to your nominated email address. Follow the email prompt to reset your password.

We advise users to carefully consider removing their AFL iD, as this will remove access to ALL platforms where you have used your AFL iD to login.

For Participation (PlayHQ), users have the ability to disconnect their AFL iD, and still retain access via alternative authentication methods. Refer to PlayHQ for further information.

For Community Coaches and Officials, deletion of your AFL iD will remove access to the AFL Officials and / or AFL Learn platforms.

Should you wish to be removed from a single product, please reach out directly to the application providers listed under Need to Get In Contact FAQ.

To remove access to a participating application and have them delete your account, you will need to reach out and contact the participating vendor. Refer to Need to get in contact FAQ below.

To use AFL Fantasy or AFL Tipping Account in 2023, you will be required to create an AFL iD. Should  you wish to link your information from previous years, you will be able to do  this during the 2023 Fantasy and Tipping competition registration process.

Your AFL iD account will be locked for 60 minutes if you enter the incorrect password a number of times. During this time, you will be unable to reset your password. Once the 60 minutes is complete, you will be able to attempt to sign in again, or select to reset your password.

AFL iD requires a mobile phone to support security setup and password recovery. Should you wish to sign up a minor who does not have a mobile phone, it is recommended that you sign up on their behalf using your mobile phone. One mobile phone may be linked to one or more active AFL iD’s.
