Registration & login


What is a ActaMaps account?
An ActaMaps account gives you access to the ActaMaps web application. Credits can be purchased through the general company account to perform ActaMaps enquiries.

It's also possible to create different employee accounts within the central company account, so that each employee has his / her own account.

Creating a new ActaMaps account is completely free of charge. After validation and activation of the account, the first 5 searches are free. Afterwards, 1 credit will be charged per (successful) ActaMaps enquiry, which are available at € 3.00 (excl. VAT) / credit.
I didn't receive any confirmation email after registering. What now?
Make sure that you check yout spam. Some email providers have a bit too diligent spam filters, which also block desired email traffic. If the e-mail cannot be found, you can contact us via the contact details to the right of this page.
How do I give other employees within my organization access to the ActaMaps company account?
The person who registered the company account within ActaMaps will become the main administrator of the ActaMaps (company) account. This main administrator manages the company profile as well as the users (add, modify and / or delete) associated with that company account.

To add an employee to the company account, the main administrator must have the e-mail, first name, last name and user role (administrator or user). When an employee is added, he/she will be notified by e-mail and can set his / her personal password from within the received e-mail in order to use ActaMaps.

Users are categorized according predefined roles:
  • (Main) administrator ; management of users / charges credits / management preferences / searches & History / My Account / View Preferences
  • User ; searches & History / My Account / View Preferences
How can I restrict acces to an employee on my ActaMaps company account?
Only employees who are identified as main administrator or administrator within the company account have the option to deny employee accounts.

Denial can be done by deleting (permanently) or 'deactivating' an account. Deactivated accounts can be changed bacl to 'active' at any later moment. Deleted accounts are permanent and not reversible.
Can I still change my details after registration?
Please note that email addresses cannot be changed after registration. All other user and company data are perfectly editable afterwards.
