How to create your online store on a website

Step by step

Option 1: use the guided assistant

1. In the left menu, open Sites and click Store in the top bar.
2. In the store setup banner, click Complete Setup.
3. Pick the task you want to do, or work through the full setup by answering the assistant's questions.
4. Review each confirmation request before the assistant creates or changes store data.
5. You can stop and come back later: Sites › Store › Complete Setup picks up the remaining tasks.
6. Connect the payment provider and handle the domain manually (the assistant can help connect a domain that already exists in the account, but it doesn't create new domains or configure payments).

Option 2: add the store to a website by hand

1. Open the website in Sites › Websites and open the builder on the page where you want the store.
2. Click Add element.
3. Under the Store category, drag an element onto the page: Cart, Collections List or Featured Products. You can also use a pre-built store section.
4. In the window that appears, choose:
   • Add Store: creates the store and copies the design settings from the current page;
   • Skip: creates the store without copying the page's theme.
5. The store is created with 5 pages: Products List, Product Details, Cart, Checkout and Thank You. Customize each one like any other page.
6. Save and publish the website.

Prepare your products

1. Open Payments › Products.
2. Create or open a product and fill in the name, description, images, price and variants (size, color…).
3. Turn on Include in Online Store and save.
