# Choose your path

You can explore Market before creating an account. Choose the route closest to what you want to do.

## I want to explore

1. Read [What is Market?](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/start/what-is-market).
2. Open [the neighborhood](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/explore/neighborhood) and [Market Radar](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/explore/radar).
3. Learn how to distinguish [a source, a place and verified authority](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/explore/places-and-sources).
4. Before examining a token, read [token pages](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/explore/token-pages), [fees](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/fees/trading-fees) and [risks](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/trust/token-risks).

## I want to create a project

1. Complete [your Citizen Pass](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/citizens/citizen-pass) to open the Citizen workspace.
2. Check [business eligibility and attribution](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/create/before-you-launch).
3. [Prepare and save your draft](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/create/prepare-a-draft).
4. Understand [the fee distribution](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/fees/business-fee-distribution) and [the token lifecycle](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/create/curve-and-migration).
5. When launching becomes available, use [the review guide](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/create/review-and-launch).
6. Keep your project useful through [stewardship](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/create/project-stewardship).

## I run or represent a business

1. Read [why your business matters](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/business/why-businesses).
2. Open the [business request page](https://marketdotlaunchpad.com/business) without a Pass or wallet. Identify your branch and contact email; [verification follows separately](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/business/verifying-your-business).
3. Learn the difference between [fee attribution and an actual payout](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/business/claiming-fees).
4. Keep the page accurate through [business updates and corrections](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/business/business-updates-and-disputes).

## I want to contribute without launching

Start with [missions and useful contributions](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/citizens/missions-and-contributions). A carefully sourced new place or material correction can be valuable without trading. Read the [XP rules](https://market-launchpad-com.gitbook.io/docs/citizens/levels-and-xp) before expecting a reward.

Your route can change over time. A Citizen can explore, create and represent a business, but each role has its own requirements.
