How to create your first collection
Creating a collection takes less than a minute. Give it a name, add a description and a cover photo — and you’re ready to start adding products.

Two ways to start

You can create a collection from two places in the app

From My Collections

Go to My Collections in the menu and click the red + Add new collection button at the top of the page.

From the navigation bar

On mobile, tap the big red + button in the middle of the bottom navigation bar — it’s labelled Create.

Step-by-step guide

Fill in the form to create your collection

01

Open My Collections

Tap Collections in the bottom navigation bar, or click it in the menu. This is where all your collections live.

  • You can see all your collections here — active and inactive
  • Each collection shows its name, date, number of products, and a Share button
  • Click + Add new collection to open the creation form
Collection Page

02

Fill in the collection name

The name is the only required field — you must fill it in before you can create the collection.

  • Choose a name that describes what the collection is about — e.g. “Summer outfits” or “My skincare routine”
  • The name is what your followers will see first
  • The name field is marked with a red * — this means it’s required

Keep the name short and specific — "Winter jackets" works better than "My collection 1".

03

Add a description (optional)

The description appears below the collection name when followers open it. It helps them understand what the collection is about before they scroll through the products.

  • Keep it short — one or two sentences is enough
  • Tell followers what kind of products they’ll find
  • This field is optional — you can skip it and add it later

04

Upload a cover image & create

The cover image is what your followers see on the collection card. It’s the first visual impression of your collection.

  • Click the upload area and choose a photo from your device
  • Accepted formats: PNG or JPG, maximum 5MB
  • Use a photo that represents the theme — e.g. a photo of yourself wearing the outfit
  • This field is optional — you can add an image later
  • When you’re ready, click Create collection

Collections with a cover image get more clicks than those without one. Always add a photo!

Tips for your first collection

Start strong from day one

Pick a theme you know

Your first collection should be about something you’re genuinely into — your followers will trust your picks more.

You can always edit it

Don’t worry about getting everything perfect — you can edit the name, description, and image at any time after creating.

Add products straight away

Once created, add at least 3–5 products before sharing — a full collection performs much better than an empty one.

Collection created — now add your products

The next step is filling your collection with products from your favourite online stores.
