# Product Gates
Click the green "New Product Gate" button to get started.
Start by entering a "Gate Name" for tracking purposes and the dates you'd like your gate to be active. If this is an evergreen gate with no specific end date simply check the "No End Date" box.
## Snapshot Checkbox
Check the "Snapshot" checkbox if you'd like to allow only wallets holding tokens at a specified time to be eligible for the campaign (i.e. a wallet "snapshot").
If you plan to specify ERC-721 tokens for this gate, leaving this unchecked will allow gate eligibility to travel with the NFT until consumed (**the most common setup**).
A snapshot date/time is required for campaigns using ERC-1155 tokens or if wallet-based redemption is desired for ERC-721 token types. Snapshots are required for ERC-1155 tokens as these tokens are fungible in nature and do not have a distinct token ID, or way for us to distinguish which one has been consumed or not for a campaign. Thus, taking a picture of the wallets that hold these tokens at a particular time and "crediting" the wallet addresses based on the number of tokens held is how we keep proper track of redemptions.
