Set up your account

Profile, brand identity, legal info, and preferences.

A complete setup takes 10 to 15 minutes and drives the quality of what your clients will see (invoices, portals, emails). Three main blocks: your personal profile, your brand identity, and your legal entity info.

Personal profile

Settings → Profile. Fill in first/last name, job title, profile picture, and client-visible contact email. These show up in email signatures, the client portal, invoices, and proposals.

Profile picture: JPG, PNG, HEIC or WebP, max 2 MB. Automatically cropped to a circle. Prefer a solid background for a clean render.
Contact email: can differ from your login email. It's the one shown on invoices (`Contact: ...`).
Job title: free text. Shows under your name in the email signature (`Jean Dupont, UX Consultant`).
Language: FR or EN. Drives the interface and automatic email templates (reminders, notifications).

Brand identity

Settings → Brand. Your brand identity is automatically applied to invoices, quotes, client portals, outgoing emails, and proposals.

Logo: upload as PNG (transparent background recommended) or SVG. Ideally high resolution (2x display size) to stay crisp on PDFs.
Primary color: 1 hex color, used for portal buttons, links, and invoice accents.
Typography: Inter by default (neutral and highly readable). On Agency, you can upload a custom font (WOFF2) for your PDFs.
PDF theme: 3 layouts available (Classic, Minimal, Modern). Change at any time — past invoices keep their original layout.

On the Agency plan, each teammate can have their own brand identity to manage multiple brands under one Nexte account. Useful for studios managing separate brands.

Company and legal info

Settings → Company. These details are required for legally valid invoices in France and are automatically injected into every generated PDF.

Legal name: your entity's registered name (may differ from your commercial brand).
Registration / tax ID: required number. Nexte automatically validates the format.
VAT number: if liable. Otherwise check `VAT-exempt` — the matching legal mention is added automatically.
Full address: street, ZIP, city, country. Used in invoice headers and mail.
IBAN: for manual wire transfers (separate from Stripe). Shows in invoice footer if enabled.

Regional preferences

Settings → Preferences. Set default currency, date format, timezone, and first day of the week. These settings only affect your view — each invoice can be issued in a different currency.

Registration ID and VAT number can't be changed once you've issued at least one invoice with them (legal requirement). Contact support for entity changes.
