Set up your first store

After signing up, you'll land on the store-creation form. This page walks through every field.

What you'll choose

1. Store name

Choose a name that reflects your business. This is what shows in the storefront header, in emails, and on the order receipt. Examples:

  • "متجر الأناقة"
  • "TechShop DZ"
  • "Boutique Sara"

You can rename your store later from Dashboard → Settings → Store.

2. Store URL (slug)

This becomes your free DZBuild subdomain: yourstore.dzbuild.com.

warning

Your slug cannot be changed after creation. Pick something you'll be happy with for the long term. If you later want a custom domain like yourbrand.com, see Custom domain — that's separate from the slug.

3. Store description (optional)

A short tagline (up to 160 characters) that appears in your storefront header and SEO meta tags.

4. Initial language

Pick the default language for your storefront. Customers can still switch — but this is what shows on first visit. Most Algerian merchants pick Arabic as default and let visitors switch to French.

5. Currency

Currently DZD (Algerian Dinar) only. We support multi-currency on the roadmap.

After creation

Your store is live immediately at yourstore.dzbuild.com with the default theme and a placeholder product. From here you'd typically:

  1. Tour the dashboard
  2. Add your first product
  3. Customize your theme
  4. Pick a courier

Multiple stores

Each user account can own up to 3 stores (Pro plan can request more). All stores share the same login, the same payment plan, and the same dashboard — switch between them from the store-picker in the top-left of the dashboard.
