Set up your page

Go public: the checklist

What Sygil requires before your page is visible, and what to double-check before you share it.

2 min read · Updated October 2026

New pages are hidden. Anyone who opens your link sees a coming-soon screen, so you can build in private. When you are ready, flip the visibility button at the top of your page from Hidden to Public.

What Sygil requires

  • Creator terms accepted. You accept these during setup. If you somehow skipped them, you will be asked.
  • A banner. Upload one or choose from Unsplash.
  • At least one social link. Add it in the Links tab.
  • A payout method. A UPI ID in India, or PayPal or Wise email elsewhere.

If something is missing, Sygil tells you exactly what: for example, "Setup incomplete. Please add a banner, social link before setting your page live."

What to check before you share

  • Open Preview on a phone. Does the first screen explain what you offer?
  • Click every link and item. Do they open the right place?
  • Read your item titles and descriptions out loud. Remove anything vague.
  • Make sure at least one item is a free or low-priced entry point (₹49 to ₹199).
  • Add the prices you actually want. Prices are whole rupees.
  • Check that your Vault items list the correct delivery: file, secret, answer, request or call time.

After you go public

  • Your page can be found at sygil.app/yourname, on Explore, in search, and on search engines.
  • You can switch back to Hidden at any time. Existing buyers keep their purchases.
  • Put the link everywhere: Share your page.

Going private again

Switch the button back to Hidden any time. Visitors then see a coming-soon screen. Existing buyers keep access to what they bought. Hide your page while you do a big redesign or if you need a break, and switch it back on afterwards.
