If we're looking at the same photo and the same bike, the "Tubeless" appears on the rim. That would match with the bike's description which mentions that the rim is tubeless-compatible, but the tires that it mentions are not (afaik), so your bike will likely not arrive set up tubeless, and if you wanted to set it up that way, it would be worth considering getting some true, tubeless tires. Once you have some tires in mind, you may be able to get some specific advice regarding that tire/rim combination being run tubeless.
