# Getting Started: Basic Setup

### Idea

To get you started as quick as possible we'll cover the essential steps:

1. Set up two discount codes in Shopify
2. Add the codes to Clawcrane
3. Preview the results
4. Go live. 🙂

### Step 1: Create two discount codes in Shopify

#### Create the Consolation prize

In your Shopify backend, click on `Discounts > Create a Discount Code`. Choose a rather low discount percentage (e.g. 5%), set the desired options and click "Save".

This will be the consolation prize. It it usually relatively easy to catch (can be changed in the setup), thus the low discount.

#### Create the Jackpot prize in Shopify

Create yet another discount code in Shopify with a higher percentage (e.g. 15%). This will be our jackpot prize, which will be difficult to capture.

### Step 2: Set up the prizes within the app

Open the app and select both discount codes in the sections ..

* "Settings > Prize: Consolation"
* "Settings > Prize: Jackpot"

{% hint style="info" %}
Another discount option to consider is **fixed vs auto-generated**.

* Fixed codes will be given to your customer exactly as you've created them.\
  Example: Always `CONSOLATION-PRICE`for every customer.
* The auto-generated option will create individualized copies of your discount code for each customer, e.g. `CONSOL-2XFE3P, CONSOL-83F3AQ, CONSOL-4PS34O` and so on.
  {% endhint %}

Don't forget to apply the analogous changes in the "Settings > Prize: Jackpot" section. 😉

### Step 3: Preview 🧪

In order to see what the app will look like in your store, go to the very bottom and hit "Save & Preview". This will automatically take you to your storefront and simulate what the app will look like for your customers.

{% hint style="info" %}
As long as `Enable or Disabled in Online Store` is set to `Disabled`, your customers will not be able to see the game.
{% endhint %}

### Step 4: Ready to go

It's time to go live: at the very bottom under "Other Settings > Enable or Disable in Online Store", set the app to "Enabled" and hit the save button.

Navigate to your storefront and try out the app. 😁🚀

{% hint style="info" %}
Don't worry - The charge you accept is only due **after** the trial period is over. In case the app doesn't work for you and you cancel within trial, you'll not be charged.
{% endhint %}

### Step 5: What's next?

You'll surely want to try out various settings. Here are the most important to explore 🕵️‍♀️

| General       | Appearance       | Appearance, Avatars & Prizes |
| ------------- | ---------------- | ---------------------------- |
| Language      | Accent color     | Prize Icons                  |
| Capture Email | Background color | Upload your own Prize Icons! |
|               | Text color       |                              |

In case you're lost - you'll always find helpful descriptions on the (?)-icon.
