   Open Settings → Store details. Under Contact, fill in Email, Phone (with the country code, like +92 300 1234567) and, if you use one, a WhatsApp number. Add your Address and Opening hours if customers visit you. Anything left blank stays hidden. Press Save store details.

   Add your logo and browser icon

   Open Settings → Logo, icon and fonts. Pick your logo under Logo (a wide logo on a transparent background works best) and a simple square mark under Browser icon. Press Save logo and fonts. Colours live in Themes, not here.

   Step 3 of 5

   Set tax and currency

   Open Settings → Tax and currency. Enter your Tax rate (%) or leave it blank for no tax, and choose the Currency you sell in, for example PKR. Changing the currency later relabels prices; it does not convert them. Press Save.

   Add your first product or service

   Open Store → Products and press + Add product. A name, a category and a price are enough to start; you can save it as a draft and finish later.
