# Onboarding

When you first install the app, a short setup guide walks you through the five steps below.

### **Step 1 — Location**

Add the first store you want customers to find. You can add more later, or skip this step with **I'll finish later**.

[Create location](/getting-started/manage-locations/create-location.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

### **Step 2 — Map type**

Choose the map that will display on your storefront: **OpenStreetMap**, **Google Maps** or **Mapbox**.

{% content-ref url="/pages/JJBqWHKUzaC9mvtyVd0o" %}
[Choose map type](/getting-started/onboarding/choose-map-type.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

### **Step 3 — App embed**

Turn on the app embed in your theme so the map appears on your storefront.

[Embed App](/getting-started/onboarding/embed-app.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

### **Step 4 — Plan**

Pick a plan. The app is free forever for trial and development stores, and you can upgrade at any time as you grow.
