## Here's how to set up collections on Shopify, step-by-step.

#### 1. From your <mark style="color:blue;">**Shopify admin**</mark>, go to <mark style="color:blue;">**Products**</mark> > <mark style="color:blue;">**Collections**</mark>. Click on **'**<mark style="color:blue;">**Create collection**</mark>**'**.

#### *You can create two types of collections:*

* A **manual** **collection** includes only the products that you choose individually.&#x20;
* An **automated** **collection** uses selection conditions to automatically include matching products. After you set up the conditions, future products are added automatically.&#x20;

#### 4. Click “<mark style="color:blue;">**Save**</mark>” when finished and get ready to start adding products to your collection
