Website Configuration and Usage Options
Multi-Regional and Multilingual
You can set up multiple sites each with a specific region and/or language. For example, Canada/French, Canada/English, USA or English. You can also set up a single site with multiple regions and/or languages. In either case the system will detect where the visitor is from and their preferred language(s) and direct them to the most appropriate region/language content.
Multi-currency
Display and check-out in multiple currencies. Choose which currencies you want to display and set up multiple payment methods in different currencies for the visitor to pay in. The system will detect where the visitor is from and set the appropriate currency for that region but allow them to change to another.
Brands
Add brands for those products you will be selling on your website to make it easy for your visitors to browse/filter your products. Add a logo to each for easy identification of those popular brands.
Categories
Set up your categories and subcategories you would like your visitors to easily browse/filter your products by. Add an image and description to your categories and position them in the order you would like them displayed. When you add your products, you can select them under one or more categories. Categories are also used with the blog and forum.
Tags
Tags are like indexes in a book. You can setup and manage your tags used on products and blog posts. Your visitors can filter products or blog posts by these tags.
Suppliers / Dropshippers
Add suppliers/dropshippers with their products to your database and when an order is placed on the site for one of their products an automated purchase order is emailed to them. If the product has been marked for dropshipping then the purchase order will state to send the product(s) directly to the customer, otherwise to your pickup outlet for you to deliver to the customer from there.
Pickup Outlets and Delivery Zones
You can set up multiple pickup outlets around the world. A pickup outlet can be a store or warehouse. Setting an outlet as a store will allow customers to choose that outlet to pick up the goods themselves. However, products are delivered from both stores and warehouses.
Delivery zones determine what region a product is picked up from and what region(s) it is delivered to. For example, Hong Kong to Europe. You can set up multiple Delivery Zones around the world and can be as specific as a region based on one or more postcodes or as wide as one or more countries, even the world. Delivery Zones are used to determine what freight and tax rates are used when an order is placed.
Delivery Methods and Freight Rates
You may decide to deliver via standard post and/or courier. These are examples of delivery methods and you can add any number of them. You can set up freight rates for each method based on delivery zones and calculated based on dollars spent or total accumulated weight of the products.
Origin/Destination based Tax Rates
A delivery zone has an origin or pickup region and destination or delivery region(s). Set up your tax rates for the different delivery zones. For example, you may set up 2 delivery zones: Australia to Australia with 10% GST and Australia to the World with GST Free. The system will pick the more specific region to apply taxes to the customer’s order.
Wholesalers / Retailers / Discount Groups
Set up groups for your wholesalers, retailers or other groups you would like to give discounts to. When adding a new user, you can add them to the group so they receive the discounts when purchasing.
Promotions
Want to offer discounts via promotions? Set up promotions based on whole order spend or off specific products. It can be a fixed dollar amount or a percentage. Give it a code and set when it starts and finishes. Even set how many times a customer can use or the maximum uses overall.
Payment Terms
Offer different payment terms such as 30-day account, 25% deposit with Balance due 7 Days before Required On, 4 monthly payments. By default, without any payment terms, the order is expected to be paid upfront.
Payment Methods / Gateways
Offer one or more different payment methods such as credit card, PayPal, direct deposit, cash on delivery or buy now / pay later. The system is integrated with many payment gateways such as eWay, SecurePay, MIGS, PayDock, ZipMoney/ZipPay, etc.
Automated Tasks
Setup automated tasks to run daily, weekly, monthly etc. such as an email campaign or synchronisation script.
URL Redirects
When moving from an existing site, it is important that you make sure existing links to your site are redirected to the appropriate pages on your new site. Setting this up prior to moving will ensure you do not lose any rankings you may already have with the search engines.
Website / Email Templates
Our website developers will customise website and email templates for displaying different views such as list and detail views of products and blog posts as well as templates for standard pages and landing pages, standard emails, newsletters, etc.
Snippets
Rather than editing a complicated template our developers will set up snippets which get placed in the templates and easy to edit. For example, contact details in the footer or banner text stating free delivery or some other promotion.
Importing / Exporting / Syncing Scripts
Setup scripts for importing, exporting or syncing products, users (customers, suppliers, etc.), orders or any other data in the database. For example, create import script for a supplier to update their product range for dropshipping or a script to export orders to your offline accounting package.

An Easy Checkout Process Your Customers Will Love
Custom Checkout
Our ecommerce website developers will customise the checkout process to suit your business. For example, you may not require billing address details, so they can hide that. Each screen in the checkout process is customisable in what fields are displayed and the design.
Guest Checkout
Enabling guest checkout will allow a customer to checkout without creating an account.
Check for Registration / Register / Login / Forgot Password
When a customer checks out (guest checkout disabled) the system can be configured to suit your customer base. For example, you may have a lot of returning customers, so in this case you would display the “login” screen first, otherwise the “register a new account” screen. Alternatively and recommended, we ask the customer for their email address, “check for registration” screen, and check the database if exists and if it does, take them to “login” otherwise to “register”. “Forgot password” is accessible from the “login”.
Referrer / Affiliate Tracking
Give your customers/affiliates a URL to share with their acquaintances and when an acquaintance uses the URL to access the site and subsequently registers the customer sharing the URL become their referral source.
Pickup or Deliver
If you have setup pickup outlets as stores, then the customer can choose to pick up the goods from the nearest store or have them delivered. The system will work out the closest pickup outlets and display them in order. If the client selects to have the goods delivered the system sets the nearest outlet (store or warehouse) in the delivery zone to deliver the goods.
Billing / Delivery Addresses
If applicable the system will capture the billing address and delivery address.
Delivery Instructions
Ask the customer for delivery instructions. For example, leave around back, beware of dog.
Message to Recipient
