# Set up a program in five steps

> A new program now walks you through Business, Commission, Tracking, Payments and Go live, with a live preview of your program card.

After you sign up, one screen asks how you will use Affitor: run a program or join programs. Your answer is saved on your account.

## Five steps, in order

A new program continues straight into setup: **Business**, **Commission**, **Tracking**, **Payments** and **Go live**. The list on the left checks off each step as the server confirms it, and shows what you saved, like your website or your rate.

## Live preview

A card on the right previews your program name, website and commission terms, and updates as you type.

## Saved as you go

**Business** and **Commission** save when you press **Continue**, and **Payments** saves as soon as you choose how sales are counted. **Save and exit** takes you to your program's settings.
