2. In the modal that appears, set the following:
   * **Name**: The name of the plan.
   * **ID**: Automatically generated by Stigg. Use this ID to reference the plan in your application. To link an existing plan, you can override the auto-generated value.
   * **Description** *(optional)*: A short description of the plan.
   * **Customer visibility**: Determines whether the plan appears in pricing tables rendered via Stigg SDKs and whether customers can self-subscribe to it.

<Note>
  The **Name** and **Description** values appear in customer-facing pricing tables and the customer portal. Use clear, customer-friendly text for best results.
</Note>

3. Click **Create** to confirm.

<Warning>
  Newly created plans are saved as **drafts**.
</Warning>

Plans must be [**published**](./publishing-plans) before they become visible to customers or available for subscriptions.

Before publishing, make sure to define the plan’s [pricing](./defining-plan-pricing/defining-plan-price) and [entitlements](./assigning-features-plans).
