### Required information to launch a drop

* **Name**: You must name your drop
* **Price**: Set your list price. Note, it must be greater than your COGs. The difference between your COG and list price is what you will take home from every sale
* **Description**: Share more information about the product and drop. This field helps explain to collectors why this drop matters
* **Supply and Minimum**: You must determine the supply and minimum for your drop. You may also opt for the drop to be an open edition. Certain items will require a minimum
* **Start and End dates**: You can set a start date in the future or check "Launch Immediately." All drops must have an end date when products enter a state of refundable or secondary only.
* If you select a date in the future, you will also be prompted to toggle DYLI Fair Drop and choose if you want to pre-purchase any of the supply. Learn more about these options at [dyli-fair-drops](https://docs.dyli.io/core-features/marketplace/sale-formats/dyli-fair-drops "mention") and [drop-management](https://docs.dyli.io/get-started/seller-hub/drop-management "mention").
* You can also choose to gate a drop. Learn more at [gating-a-drop](https://docs.dyli.io/core-features/marketplace/drop-pages/gated-sale-pages/gating-a-drop "mention").
