# ⛓️I Want a Bookable Calendar on My Homepage Without a Product

> Create a homepage booking calendar in Cowlendar without a Shopify product.

Although Cowlendar requires a Shopify product to create any service, you can easily hide that product from your store while keeping everything fully functional.

This is a great workaround if you want to:

Use Cowlendar services without displaying products in your storefront
Keep your bookings paid through Shopify checkout
Continue using all Cowlendar integrations (payments, notifications, subscriptions, etc.)

***

### Step-by-Step: Hide the Shopify Product While Using Cowlendar

#### 1. Create Your Service Normally in Cowlendar

From your Shopify admin, go to **Apps**.
Open **Cowlendar**.
Go to **My Services**.
Click **Create Service** (or edit an existing one).
Associate the service with a Shopify product (this step is mandatory).
Save your service.

At this point, your service is correctly linked to Shopify.

#### 2. Hide the Shopify Product from Your Store

Now we’ll prevent that Shopify product from appearing publicly:

In your Shopify admin, go to **Products**.
Open the product you linked to your Cowlendar service.
Find the **Status** section.
Change the status to **Unlisted**.
Save.

### What Does “Unlisted” Mean?

Using Shopify’s **Unlisted** status:

The product will NOT appear in your online store.
The product cannot be searched or browsed by customers.
The product remains fully active in the background.

Most importantly:

Cowlendar will still be able to:

Add the product to cart after booking
Process payments normally
Trigger notifications
Support subscriptions and integrations

So your booking flow continues to work exactly the same.
