The onboarding process
After your first sign-in, Bistu walks you through a guided setup. You'll go through five steps:
1. Welcome
You'll see a welcome screen with an overview of what's ahead. If you signed up with email, you'll be asked to set a password here.
2. Secure your account
Set up your account security. You can enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for extra protection. This is optional but recommended.
3. Business information
Enter the basics about your business:
- Your name — First and last name
- Business name — The name customers will see on your website
- Business category — Restaurant, retail, service, or other
- Location — Country, city, and state/province
- Regional preferences — Currency, timezone, and language
4. Choose a plan
Select your subscription tier. All plans come with a 14-day free trial — no credit card required to start exploring. You can choose between monthly and yearly billing (yearly saves you money).
See Plans & Pricing for details on what each tier includes.
5. Review and confirm
Review all the information you've entered and accept the terms of service and privacy policy. When you click Complete & Checkout, you'll be taken to our secure payment page powered by Stripe.
After checkout, you'll be redirected to your dashboard and you're ready to start building your site.
