Set up a store

Prepare products, delivery settings, and checkout before you start selling.

If your site already has a store, open Content/Store. If it does not, ask in Site Design to add the store features you need. A product listing and a working checkout are separate parts of setup.

Review the store

  1. Open Content Admin and find Store.
  2. Open Products and review prices, images, stock, and each product’s options in Options & delivery.
  3. Open Store settings.
  4. Set the main currency, support email, shipping destinations, and delivery settings.
  5. Review the tax setting with the person responsible for your store’s taxes.

Imported products still need review. Payment connections, paid download files, historical orders, and subscriptions need separate setup.

Connect payments

Open Workspace → Payments in Content Admin. Configure and test payments before enabling live checkout. Follow Connect payments.

Store checkout also has its own Enable checkout setting under Store settings. Both the application payment setup and store checkout must be ready.

Test an order

Use the test payment environment. Open a product as a visitor, choose any options, add it to the cart, and finish a test order. Check the order confirmation and the order record.

For a physical product, check delivery details. For a download, check file access. For an event, check the ticket details. See Products and delivery.

Open the live store

Publish the site, configure live payments for its public address, and review the checkout settings again. Check the public product pages and cart before telling customers the store is ready.

Use Store → Orders for purchase records and available ticket tools, and Store → Customers for existing accounts, emails, and order history. See Manage orders and Customers.
