This article explains how to create a new Free Developer account via the NS1 Managed DNS portal (https://my.nsone.net).
NOTE
A valid credit card is required during account creation to secure the service and prevent fraudulent account sign-ups. A small verification charge ($2.00) may be incurred to confirm credit card authorization which will be credited back. NS1 will not charge you unless your usage exceeds the NS1 free-tier limits.
