# Get started with Treasure in 5 steps

> Create your Treasure account, build your first event page, add ticket types, and share your live event URL — everything in one place.

This guide walks you through everything you need to go from a blank slate to a live, ticketed event on Treasure. By the end, you'll have a published event page that attendees can find and buy tickets from.

<Note>
  The free Basic plan is enough to complete every step in this guide. You can upgrade at any time from your [pricing page](/account/pricing).
</Note>

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create your account">
    Go to [ontreasure.com](https://ontreasure.com) and click **Sign in**. Enter your phone number or email address and wait to receive the 6-digit code to complete the sign in process.

    After signing up, Treasure will prompt you to set up your profile. Complete this step before creating your first event, as your profile name and photo appear on every event page you publish.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Complete your profile">
    After signing in, open your profile settings. Fill in:

    * **First and last name** — used on your public profile and payouts
    * **Username** — sets your public URL at `ontreasure.com/u/[username]`
    * **Business name** (optional) — shown on your event pages instead of your personal name
    * **Bio** — a short description displayed on your public profile

    Upload a profile photo by clicking the avatar placeholder. Your public profile at `/u/[username]` lists all your upcoming events, so attendees can follow your work across events.

    Click **Save** when you're done.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create your first event">
    From the dashboard, click **Create Event** or go to [ontreasure.com/create](https://ontreasure.com/create).

    Fill in the event details:

    * **Title** — the name that appears on your event page and in search results
    * **Date and time** — start and end times for the event
    * **Location** — venue name and address
    * **Description** — tell attendees what to expect
    * **Cover image** — upload a banner or poster for your event page

    You can save a draft at any time and return to finish later. When you're ready to publish, set the event status to **Live**.

    For a full walkthrough of every event setting, see [Create an event](/hosts/create-event).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add ticket types">
    Inside your event editor, open the **Tickets** section. Click **Add ticket** to create your first ticket type.

    Each ticket type has:

    * **Name** — for example, "General Admission" or "VIP"
    * **Price** — set to `0` for free tickets
    * **Quantity** — the maximum number of tickets available
    * **Sale window** — optional start and end dates for when the ticket is on sale

    You can add multiple ticket tiers (early bird, general, VIP) and control visibility independently for each.

    <Note>
      To sell paid tickets, you need to connect a Stripe account first. Treasure will prompt you to do this when you add a paid ticket. Free events do not require Stripe. See [Payouts](/hosts/payouts) for details.
    </Note>

    For more on ticket configuration options, see [Ticket types](/hosts/ticket-types).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Share your event page">
    Once your event is live, Treasure generates a dedicated public URL for it. Copy the link from the event dashboard and share it anywhere — social media, email, your website.

    Attendees can browse your event, read the description, and purchase tickets directly on the page. You can also embed the checkout widget on your own site using the embed feature.

    Track ticket sales and revenue in real time from your event's **Sales** dashboard.
