Note:

Before your journey can truly begin, there are some vital markers you need to set. Establishing a pickup location, defining your brand name, and selecting your preferred currency are key steps to activate your account fully. Don’t be misled by the term ‘Location Name’; it doesn’t have to be a physical address. It’s merely a personalized label for your pickup spot. You can keep it simple, like “Home”. This necessary step helps to tailor your brand’s presence on our platform.
