# Make sure your product is not in a draft mode

For the Cowlendar booking app to function seamlessly, your product needs to be set to live mode rather than draft mode. 

Here's a step-by-step guide to ensure your product is live:

**1. Accessing Your Product Settings**

* Navigate to Settings > Checkout from your Shopify admin panel.

**2. Checking Current Checkout Status**

* Within the Checkout customization section, review the listings to identify whether your product checkout is currently set to live or draft.

**3. Activating Your Product**

* If your product is in draft mode:
  * Click on Publish next to the desired draft checkout.
  * Confirm by selecting Publish.

**4. Verifying Activation**

* To ensure the changes have been implemented:
  * Click on ⋯ adjacent to your now live checkout.
  * Select View to observe how the live checkout appears to your customers.

Your product is now set to active mode, ensuring compatibility with the Cowlendar booking app. **Always remember to save any changes** made during this process.

**Note:** It is crucial to maintain only one live checkout at a given time for accurate customer traffic management.
