## Purchase
You finally decide to buy the yoga mat. Go to the Luma website and complete the purchase.
- On the Luma website open the** Acqua Sticky Yoga Mat** product page.

:::hint{type="info"}
**IMPORTANT**: leave the toggle `I want to join Luma+ Loyalty Program` disabled. You're going to leverage this status later in the journey.
:::
Your page should look like this:
- Click **Continue**.
- Review the **Order Summary**, then click **Confirm Order**.
In a couple of seconds, your order is confirmed and you'll be redirected to the Thank You page.
## Confirmation email
You will receive an email containing a summary of your order. Because you are not currently a member of Luma+, Luma loyalty program, the email will include a personalised banner inviting you to join.
- Open your email client.
- Open the email with the subject: **Your Luma Order Is Arriving Soon**.
At the bottom of the email you can see the personalised banner that promote the Luma+ program.
## Follow up email
In this moment you're not interested in the Luma+ program and do not subscribe to the Luma+ program. A week later\* you receive a follow up email about the Luma+ program.
:::hint{type="info"}
\* for demo purposes, the delay is reduced to 1 minute.
:::
- Open your email client.
- Open the email with the subject: **Discover why you should register to LUMA+**.
## Track your order in the app
You chose to pick your order up in store, so you'll want to know the exact moment it's ready to collect. Open the Luma app and sign in : from now on you'll get order updates straight to your phone, and later it's how you'll collect the order in store.
- If not done yet, download the **Luma** app ([instructions here](docId:8QLNpfY09eYt5dY3nPecx)).
- Open the app, tap the :inlineImage[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/1Jp0iolWv35Z_mkI7oUiT/Hy84pUFVw3mD5OVzuKDYM-20260618-093359.jpg" alt caption width="90" height="90"} and sign in using:
- `{{EMAIL}}` as email.
- Any character for the password (you can leave it blank if you prefer).
:::hint{type="info"}
Signing in with the same email you used for your purchase links your app to the profile you've been building on the website. That single profile is what lets Luma reach you on the right device throughout the rest of the journey.

# What is needed
Now you've seen what the customer experience is, this is what you need to configure to enable that experience with Adobe Experience Platform.
- An **event-triggered journey** To send the customer communication once the purchase is done.
- A **confirmation** **email** With the recap of the order and promotional banner.
- A **follow up communication******
It can be a push notification or an email, based on customer preferences, with content on Luma+ Program.
