When you first install Zestify, the Get Zestify Ready checklist appears on your dashboard. It’s a four-step guide designed to get you from a fresh install to a live, working campaign as quickly as possible — most stores finish setup in less than 10 minutes.

​
Finding the Checklist

The checklist is displayed near the top of the Zestify dashboard — the first page you see when you open the app. It shows how many of the 4 tasks you’ve completed (for example, “0 of 4 tasks complete”). Each task can be expanded to reveal a description and an action button. Click any task heading to expand it.

​
Step 1: Create & Configure Your Campaign

What to do: Click Create campaign. Create your first campaign, choose a game, set when and where it appears on your store, then save and activate it. This is the core of your campaign — the game your visitors will play.
If you’re not ready to set this up yet, you can click Skip to come back to it later. The other checklist steps will still be available.

​
Step 2: Add Prize Rewards

Go to the Rewards section to set up the prizes visitors can win when they play your campaign. These are the incentives that make the game worth playing — and the reason customers hand over their email.

​
Step 3: Customize Your Widget

Go to the Appearance section to style the campaign widget so it matches your store’s branding — colors, look, and feel.

​
Step 4: Enable the Widget

The app embed must be turned on in the Shopify Theme Editor before your campaign will actually appear on your storefront. See How to Enable the Widget for the full walkthrough.
Don’t skip this step. If the widget/app embed is not enabled, your campaign will not display on your store, even after it’s been created and activated.

​
After Completing All Four Steps

Once all four tasks are checked off, your dashboard shows a clean Performance Overview — views, plays, contacts, and redemptions for the last 7 days — along with your active campaigns. You don’t have to complete all four steps in one sitting, but finishing them in order is the fastest path to having a campaign live on your storefront.
