Setup Guide

Be ready before you begin.

A few simple items will make onboarding faster, smoother, and easier to complete without getting stuck.

Before you sign up
This is the shortest checklist for a cleaner start.
  • Choose who will own setup
  • Be ready to complete Stripe onboarding
  • Know your cancellation policy
  • Gather the basic practice details you will need during signup
Important note
Stripe setup is part of onboarding, not an optional later step.

Have the right billing owner ready before you begin. Shono works best when Stripe setup can be completed during onboarding rather than postponed.

That usually means the person doing setup should be able to handle account details, billing ownership, and policy decisions in one pass.

What happens during setup
Onboarding is short when the right information is ready.
  1. 1Create your account
  2. 2Add practice details
  3. 3Connect Stripe
  4. 4Create your first policy
Who should complete onboarding
Pick one owner for setup, even if others help later.

The best owner is usually a practice manager or decision-maker who can approve policy and billing details.

If multiple people will be involved, choose one person to drive the process so setup does not stall between steps.
