Account & user identity

Overview & Registration

Sportnet Account is the center of all activities on the platform. After registration, each user has a personal profile page to join the community, use platform features, and manage the resources they create.

An account helps Sportnet identify users, protect personal data, synchronize activity history, and grant access to features such as posting, joining tournaments, managing clubs, managing venues, or organizing tournaments.

Fast registration

Users can create an account with basic information such as full name, phone number or email, OTP verification code, and Captcha code.

Secure verification

The system uses Captcha and OTP to verify users, helping reduce fake accounts or accounts created automatically.

Personal profile page

After registration, users receive a personal profile page to display information, activities, community connections, and platform usage.

1. Role of a Sportnet account

An account is an important identity layer that allows users to fully participate in the Sportnet ecosystem. Once logged in, users can interact with the community, register for sports activities, and manage resources under their ownership.

Join the sports community

Users need to sign in to use interactive features and participate in activities on the platform.

Create posts, upload images or videos, and share sports activities.
Comment, interact, and connect with the community.
Follow favorite sports, clubs, sports venues, or tournaments.
Register for tournaments, events, or suitable sports activities.
Receive notifications related to activities, resources, and system updates.

Manage resources on Sportnet

An account is also the foundation for users to create, own, and manage important resources in the Sportnet ecosystem.

Create and manage sports clubs or teams.
Create and manage sports venues if the user is a venue owner or operator.
Create and operate tournaments if the user is an organizer.
Manage pages, content, or resources that the user has permission to access.
Track account activity history and related information.

Suggestion: Users should provide accurate and verifiable registration information to make login, account recovery, and important Sportnet notifications easier to manage.

2. Create a Sportnet account

The account registration process is designed to be simple so users can quickly start using Sportnet. Users only need to provide basic information and complete the verification step required by the system.

Basic registration information

This information helps the system create the account, identify the user, and set up the initial profile page.

Full name: Used to create the initial profile and personal profile URL.
Phone number or email: The main identity information of the account.
OTP verification code: A verification code sent to the registered phone number or email.
Captcha code: A security check designed to reduce automated registrations or invalid behavior.

Information for login and recovery

The phone number or email is used as the account identifier and also supports future security processes.

Used to sign in to the Sportnet account.
Used to receive OTP codes during account verification.
Used to recover the account when necessary.
Supports important notifications related to the account and platform activities.

Note: Each account is identified by the phone number or email used during registration. Users should review this information carefully before completing registration.

3. Account verification

To maintain the authenticity of the community and reduce fake or automatically created accounts, Sportnet applies a verification process during registration.

Complete Captcha verification

Users complete the Captcha step to confirm that the registration action is being performed by a real user, not an automated system.

Purpose: Captcha helps reduce mass account creation, spam, and inappropriate behavior in the community.

Receive and enter the OTP code

The system sends an OTP code to the registered phone number or email. Users need to enter the correct verification code to continue activating the account.

Meaning: OTP confirms that the registrant has access to the phone number or email used for the account.

Activate the account

After verification is completed, the account is activated and the user can begin using the features available to their account permissions.

Result: Users can sign in, complete their personal profile, join the community, and use features that match their account permissions.

4. Personal profile URL

When an account is created, the system automatically generates a URL for the personal profile page based on the registered full name. This URL gives users a dedicated address to share their profile and activities on Sportnet.

How the system generates the URL

The personal profile URL is automatically generated from the initial registered name using a standard URL formatting rule.

Remove Vietnamese accents.
Convert all characters to lowercase.
Replace spaces with hyphens -.
Create the personal profile URL according to the system structure.

Example

For example, if a user registers with the initial display name Cầu Lông, the system may generate the following personal profile URL:

Registered name: Cầu Lông
Generated URL: /profile/cau-long
Rule: The name is converted into an accent-free, lowercase format with hyphens separating words.

Suggestion: Users who want a clean, memorable, or personal-brand-friendly profile URL should choose their registration name carefully from the beginning.

5. Personal profile after registration

After the account is activated, the system creates a personal profile page for the user. This is the space where user information, activities, and related content are displayed within the Sportnet community.

Information that can be updated

Users can continue completing their personal profile after registration to improve recognition within the community.

Update the display name on the profile.
Add a profile photo, cover image, or introduction.
Follow favorite sports, venues, clubs, or tournaments.
Display activities, posts, or content shared on the platform.

Relationship between display name and URL

The display name on the profile can be updated later to match the user’s needs.

The display name can be changed during account usage.
Updating the display name does not necessarily change the URL generated at registration.
Users can continue using the account normally after updating profile information.
The personal profile URL should remain stable for long-term sharing and recognition.

6. Notes when registering and using an account

To make Sportnet usage more convenient and secure, users should keep several important points in mind regarding registration information, account verification, and personal profile URLs.

Security and verification

Accurate registration information helps users protect their accounts and handle future verification situations more easily.

Each account is identified by the registered phone number or email.
Use an active phone number or email to receive OTP codes.
Do not use information that is not under your control.
Accurate information makes account recovery easier if an issue occurs.

URL and personal identity

The initial registration name may affect the personal profile URL, so users should choose a suitable name from the beginning.

Consider the registration name carefully if you want a clean, memorable, or stable URL.
Avoid names that may cause confusion or be difficult to identify.
The display name can be updated later without affecting account usage.
This documentation may be updated when Sportnet adds or adjusts account features.

7. Suggestions for getting started effectively

Complete your profile after registration:

After the account is activated, users should update their personal profile, profile photo, sports interests, and necessary information. A complete profile makes community connection easier and more trustworthy.

Use accurate and long-term account information:

A Sportnet account can be linked to many activities such as joining tournaments, managing clubs, booking venues, or operating sports venues. Users should use stable identity information for long-term convenience.
