# Profile registration

{% hint style="info" %}
In this section, you will learn how to autonomously run and manage an IoTeX delegate node. If you are interested in a hosted service that saves you from managing all the technical aspects of configuring, managing, and updating a full node, please go to the [Fastblock](/get-started/hosted-service.md) section.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

Feel free to follow this video to register your profile on the [Delegates Portal](https://stake.iotex.io/), or simply follow the step-by-step guide right below it:

### Become a Delegate

From the landing page, simply click on *"Become a Delegate"* to start the registration process. You'll need to connect your wallet. The portal supports ioPay Desktop, or browser wallets such as Metamask, [ioPay](https://docs.iotex.io/get-started/iotex-wallets/official-iopay-wallet), Trust, Math, and imToken.&#x20;
