The webshop settings page is where you configure anything and everything to do with your webshop - payment and shipping methods, activating the shopping cart, creating coupons, and much more!


To view and/or change your webshop settings, go to the Webshop tab. On this page you'll see the categories Orders, Customers, and Products at the top. The settings categories below that are: Payment methods, Shipping, Tax, Checkout form, Confirmation emails, Coupons, Company details, and Webshop settings.


Don't forget to check out our article about adding products to your webshop.


Payment methods

You can accept both manual and automatic payment methods in your webshop. For automatic payment methods such as credit and debit card and Bancontact, use payment provider Stripe. You can also connect your shop with PayPal. It's also possible to enable manual payment methods such as Pay on pick-up, Pay by invoice, Pay on delivery, and Bank transfer. To use the manual payment methods, you do not need a link with a payment provider. 


If you enable payment via bank transfer or by invoice, a text field will appear in which you can provide payment instructions for your customers. You can format this text to emphasize important details and/or include links, for example to a page with more information about the order process.


Shipping

Choose between basic and advanced shipping methods. You can also set a minimum order amount for free shipping, and activate pick-up/collection options. You can also set a threshold amount from when shipping is free, indicate whether orders can be collected for free, and enable working with collection points.

VAT

Your business operations may be subject to Value Added Tax (VAT). On this page, you can activate VAT rates and optionally add multiple rates in order to set VAT rates per product. You can also choose whether to show prices with VAT included or excluded.


Checkout form

  • Terms and conditions: Publish a page detailing your webshop's terms and conditions and have customers read and accept these terms before placing an order.
  • Notifications: Display alerts and other notifications for your customers on the order page and order confirmation page. You can also include links here, for example to download a digital product.


Confirmation emails

On the Emails page, you can customize order confirmation and shipping confirmation emails, which are automatically sent to your customers when they place an order and when the order has been shipped. For example, you may opt to include payment instructions in the order confirmation email for customers who select the Bank transfer payment method. 


Order confirmation emails can also be sent with an attached invoice.
