# Getting set up

<summary>Step 1: Create rental product</summary>

This is the first step to offering rentals! You'll use the FlexCon app to set up which products can be rented, define your rental durations and pricing, and manage security deposits.

👉 For a detailed walkthrough, please see our [Guide on Creating Rental Products](https://flexconversion-product-rental.gitbook.io/user-guide/product-guides/products#creating-a-new-rental-product).

<summary>Step 2: Display rental section on product page</summary>

Once your rental products are set up, you need to showcase them!

* Customize your theme > add our **Product Rental Section** app block to your product page template.
* This automatically displays all your rental options, date selectors, and pricing to your customers.

<summary>Step 3: Add checkout rule on Shopify</summary>

This step is crucial for validating your product's rental configurations and ensuring **accurate order processing**.

To add the FlexCon checkout rule:

* Go to your Shopify **Checkout settings**. Scroll to the bottom and find **Checkout rules**.
* Click **Add rule**, then select **FlexCon cart & checkout validation**.
* **Uncheck** "Allow all customers to complete checkout" and **turn on** the rule.

<summary>Step 4: Test a rental/try-on order</summary>

Before going live, it's crucial to confirm everything works perfectly for your customers.

* Place a test rental or try-on order on your storefront just like a real customer would.
* This checks that pricing, dates, and the checkout process are all functioning as expected!
