Install and build your first campaign

This is the whole setup, in order. Ten minutes if you already know which product you want to promote.

1. Install the app

Add Flip to Win from the Shopify App Store. You land on the free plan straight away: 300 impressions a month, no card required. Development stores get every feature free, forever, so agencies can build before a store goes live.

2. Create a campaign

From the dashboard, choose Create campaign. Give it a name only you will see, and a slug, which becomes part of the game’s URL.

3. Choose where shoppers land

Pick the product page the game should send people to after the reveal. This is the page where the gifts will be waiting. See Choosing a destination for the difference between picking a product and entering a URL.

4. Add your gifts

Add one gift per prize you want revealed. Each one can be a free product, free shipping, a percentage off, an amount off, or an amount off shipping. See The five prize types.

Two things worth getting right now rather than later:

• Gift products must be sellable. In stock, published, and not tracked-to-zero. The app blocks publishing if they aren’t, because a gift that cannot be added to a cart breaks the whole flow.
• How many cards must be flipped is the number of gifts you offer. Three gifts means three flips.

5. Style the board

The editor’s live preview is the real thing, not an approximation. Set colours, card artwork, fonts, copy and grid size until it looks like your brand. Nothing here needs code. Full detail in Design and branding.

6. Save as draft

Save and come back. Nothing is live until you publish, and publishing is its own step covered in Publishing and pointing ads at it.
