# Setup instructions
**Why do you need to create a widget?**\
A project represents an entity through which interaction with Inqud is conducted. By creating different projects (widgets), you can separate the flow of funds, which allows for more efficient financial operations. For example, if a merchant has two websites, they can create two separate projects with individual settings for each. This will not only separate the flow of funds but also allow unique parameters for each project, enabling more flexible management.
### **How to create a new widget**** (required step)**
To create a new project (widget), follow these steps:
1. Go to your dashboard.
2. Open the **Widgets** page.
3. Click on **Add new widget**.
4. Enter the name of the widget in the form that appears.
5. Set the activation status using the **Active** toggle.
{% hint style="info" %}
You can activate or deactivate the widget at any time.
{% endhint %}
### **Currency settings**** (required step)**
This section displays all currently available deposit options that your users can use. You will see a list of cryptocurrencies and their corresponding networks. The list of activated currencies and networks determines what your users will see in their deposit currency list.
Use the **Active** toggle to manage currencies. When activated, all networks for the selected currency will be enabled.
If you wish to enable or disable specific networks, you can activate or deactivate the necessary networks by checking or unchecking the respective boxes.
### **Auto-conversion**** (optional step)**
You can choose the currency to which incoming funds will be converted for each specific cryptocurrency. To set up auto-conversion, select the desired currency from the list. All incoming payments in Currency 1 will be automatically converted to Currency 2.
### **Fee settings**
A platform fee is charged for each transaction, which is deducted at the time the funds are received. For example, when 100 USDT is received, the fee might be 5 USDT, resulting in 95 USDT being credited to the balance. However, you can pass this fee on to your users by enabling the \
\ **Fee is paid by end user** setting. In this case, the fee will be passed to the end user after all calculations. Note that when this setting is enabled (when using the Inqud-branded UI), the user will be informed about the fee they will pay. If you do not want the user to see this information, you can activate the \
\ **Hide fee from user** setting. This way, the fee will still be charged to the user, but the information will not be displayed.
{% hint style="warning" %}
*Important*: This function is relevant only for checkouts with the **Fixed\_price** type.
{% endhint %}
### **Domain management**** (optional step)**
To use acquiring in the widget format, it is necessary to verify the domain on which the widget will be placed. To verify a domain, follow these steps:
1. Go to **Widgets >> Domains**.
2. Click the **Add** button.
3. Complete the form by entering the domain for verification (without using **http\://** or **https\://**).
4. Submit the form.
{% hint style="info" %}
The domain verification process can take up to 24 hours during business hours. Once the domain is successfully verified, it will be assigned the status **Approved** or **Rejected**.
{% endhint %}
If the domain is **Approved**, it can be linked to a project:
1. Go to the desired widget.
2. Open the **Domain management** tab.
3. You will see all verified domains in the list and can link any of them to the project.
{% hint style="info" %}
Domain verification is required only for acquiring in widget format. For other acquiring formats, domain verification is not needed.
{% endhint %}
### **Webhooks**** (recommended step)**
