A product mapping tells PayGlue: when a customer buys product X from provider Y, make them a Ghost member with access and send welcome email type W.
PayGlue does not assign Ghost tiers. Access is recorded on the member itself: as the comped flag when a Stripe account is connected to Ghost, or as the payglue-active label when it is not. A product:<key> label says which product was bought, so several products stay distinguishable in your member list. See Do I need Stripe? and Member labels.
Running more than one Ghost blog? Create a separate provider product per blog and map each one only in the organization it belongs to. Mapping the same product in multiple organizations grants Ghost membership on all of them for a single purchase. See the FAQ for details.

Where mappings are created

Mappings are not created on a dedicated page. Instead, you configure them inline when you set up a Buy Button, Paywall, or Pricing Table. When you select a product and choose what should happen in Ghost in one of those editors and click Save, the mapping is recorded automatically.
