Once you have finished the initial setup of your store with Google Analytics, Google Merchant Center and Google Tag Manager, it is time to activate your Flokee account and start generating real sales.

**Before you start:** every Google integration has to be configured before you request activation. If you have not done that yet, go to [Getting started](/en/help/primeros-pasos) and set them up.

## What happens when you activate?

When you activate your Flokee account, our AI system:

- **Analyses your product catalogue** automatically
- **Creates optimised campaigns** for the products most likely to sell
- **Manages bids and budgets** intelligently
- **Writes ads that work** and turn visitors into customers
- **Monitors and optimises** performance around the clock

## The activation process

Activating your account involves a manual review by our team, so that your store starts with the best configuration we can give it.

### Step 1: request activation

On your dashboard, find the **"Start now"** button and click it.
