Onboarding Checklist

When you first log in to Toppal, the dashboard displays an onboarding checklist that guides you through initial setup.

1. Choose a Plan

Select a subscription plan. Navigate to Admin > Profile.

2. Set Your Marketplace URL

Configure your Sharetribe marketplace base URL. Navigate to Admin > Settings > Marketplace Settings. Enter the full URL (e.g. https://yourmarketplace.com).

Choose the currency for reporting and payouts. Navigate to Admin > Settings > Marketplace Settings.

4. Connect Sharetribe
