Prerequisites
- A World Republic account, signed in
- Verification — the same one-time face check that voting needs. If you have not done it, get verified first.
Parties registered before verification was required keep their listing, their subsidies and their edit rights.
Steps
1
Open the Parties tab
Open worldrepublic.org and switch to the Parties tab — worldrepublic.org/parties goes straight there. Your own party lives in the Your party section at the top.
2
Fill in the details
In the Your party section, tap Register a party.
required
The name citizens see on the ballot and in the parties list. You can change it later.
Optional. A few lines on what your party stands for.
Optional. Your party’s website or social media page. A bare domain is fine —
https:// is added for you if you leave it off.3
Register
Tap Register. If you are not signed in, you are asked to sign in first — Use biometrics or Continue with Google — and what you typed is kept, so you finish by tapping Register again.
Outcome
Success! You are a party leader. Your party appears under Your party and is on the ballot straight away. It joins the parties list voters see by default once an automated review clears it — until then your party’s card reads In review, and a voter who chooses to show all parties can already find it and vote for it.
Troubleshooting
You are sent to the face check instead
You are sent to the face check instead
Registration is refused while your account is unverified, so the app explains the check and takes you to it rather than turning you away. Complete the scan, then come back to the Parties tab and register — anything you had already typed is kept.
You already lead a party
You already lead a party
An account leads one party at a time. Registering another asks you to confirm, and confirming dissolves the party you lead now and takes it off the parties list. To change your party’s name, description or link instead, edit the one you have.
Editing or deleting your party
Editing or deleting your party
On your party’s card, open Edit your party — it appears only on the party you lead. Remove party is inside it. Removing cannot be undone.
