# Current cloud instance process

The current processs for creating cloud instances is incorrect.

At the moment the process is the following:

- Customer goes to `https://vantage.hostxtra.co.uk/start` then fills in the form.
- Customer is then sent and email to verify
- Customer clicks the link and the instance is created in the DB.
- Customer can then access the instance.

As the `/start` process is auto creating a new instance this should default to the free tier instance.

The issue is that this doesn't create an `account` and `admin_instance` on the admin side.

The process should be the following:

- Customer goes to `https://vantage.hostxtra.co.uk/start` then fills in the form (including account name).
- Customer is then sent and email to verify
- Customer clicks the link and the instance is created in the DB.
- `account` and `admin_instance` is created
