Now that you have all the building blocks in place, you’re ready to start creating your products 🚀

Our platform provides a variety of options and settings to create products tailored to your needs. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the essential steps to create a simple, standard product.

Products are your inventory, and can be activities, cabin rental (accommodation), equipment rental, tickets etc.

2. Accommodation: Products booked overnight with a start and end date.
