Are you ready to leave Twitter for greener pastures? You're not alone—people are flocking to Twitter competitors like Bluesky, Mastodon , and Threads in droves! But unlike the other two microblogging platforms, Bluesky is not yet open to all users. For now, the only way to join Bluesky is to get your hands on an invite code, which you can get by joining the waitlist or asking a friend who's already on Bluesky. This wikiHow article covers everything you need to know about Bluesky invite codes, from how to get invited to using your code to join Bluesky.

Things You Should Know

  • The most reliable way to get an invite code is to join the waitlist at https://bsky.app .
  • Bluesky users receive one invite code each week, so try asking a current Bluesky user for an invite.
  • Watch out for scammers offering to sell Bluesky invite codes, as these codes may not work.

    Sign up to receive your Bluesky invite code at https://bsky.app . According to Bluesky, this is how the majority of users on the decentralized social network were able to create their accounts. [1] To sign up, you'll just need to click Create a new account , click Next , and then click Join the waitlist . Enter your email address and click Join Waitlist to add your name to the list.
    • While this is the easiest way to get a Bluesky invite code, it'll likely take the longest—there's no way to find out where you stand on the waitlist, and many users report being on the list for months without ever receiving an invite code.

    If you have a friend who's already off the waitlist, ask them for an invite code. This is definitely the fastest way to get an invite code for Bluesky, though it'll only work if you know the right people. If you don't know who's on Bluesky, reach out to your social media network on Threads , Twitter , or your preferred app.

    Because Bluesky invite codes are so elusive, be careful when requesting an invite code on your social media feeds. Scammers may contact you offering to sell you invite codes, give you a free code in exchange for something else, or charge you for access to paid Discord servers that will supposedly get you an invite. Avoid paying for a Bluesky invite, as the codes usually won't be legitimate. Besides, Bluesky is free; you shouldn't have to pay to sign up.
    • The Bluesky developers don’t condone the sale or purchase of invite codes. [2]
