# Creating a template

{% embed url="<https://www.loom.com/share/738e4bcdf0134e5bb21a6b780b6ff5c6>" %}

To create a contract agreement, start by navigating to the **Settings** section of your Loopit dashboard. Under **Template** settings, you’ll find the **Contract Templates** section. Here's a step-by-step guide:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**Access the Contract Template Section:**

Go to **Settings** > **Templates** > **Contract Templates**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Create a New Template:**

Click on **Create New Template**. For this example, name the template something recognizable like **Subscription Agreement** or **Default Subscription Agreement**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Choose a Predefined Template or Start from Scratch:**

* **Predefined Template**: You can opt to use Loopit’s default contract template, which includes a pre-formatted cover page with merge fields. This is recommended if you're getting started quickly or don’t require a fully custom agreement.
* **Blank Template**: Alternatively, you can disable the predefined option and start from scratch if you have specific requirements that Loopit’s default doesn’t cover.
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Editing the Agreement**

* Contracts can span multiple pages. To add a new page, simply select **Insert** > **Page**. This creates a blank page where you can begin adding your customized content.
* Use the **Components** section to drag in a **Text Box** for adding detailed terms and conditions, clauses, and any other important contractual information specific to your business.
