# SKUs

## What are SKUs?

While Products refer to a representation of a product a customer can purchase, the **Product SKU** is a specific product variation taking into account possible attributes of the product. (e.g., size, color, currency, cost). You can create many products and SKUs which can be offered to your clients.

# Create a SKU

A SKU allows you to define the specific item you are selling, this is where you will be required to set a price and currency that the customer will pay for. You will also be able to specify an image for the SKU, amongst other fields:

* **Name**: Name that will appear on the user interface, receipts, and more.
* **Description**: Description of the SKU.
* **Price**: The price the customer will be charged when purchasing this SKU (we currently accept price=0 SKUs only if you are using Stripe as your payment gateway).
* **Currency**: Currency tied to your SKU.
* **Inventory type**: Inventory type can either be 'Infinite' or 'Finite':
  * Infinite: This type will allow you to sell as many items as you want. Typically used for digital products that do not have any inventory.
  * Finite: This type will allow you to add a 'Quantity' available as your inventory. If it runs out, your end-users will not be able to purchase this item anymore. You can learn how to add more quantity for your SKU in the next steps below.
* **Expires on**: If your item has an expiry date, you can set it in this field and your end-users will not be able to purchase this item past the date.
* **Entitlements** : The entitlements that are available to the user when purchasing the SKU. The entitlements will enable you to control the features that a user has access to.
* **Image**: You can set an image for the item that you are selling.
* **Associated Segment**: This refers to the segment linked to this SKU. (This SKU will be accessible within this segment.)
