Paystack Storefront a free gold for small business owners
Paystack announced Paystack Storefront, a free and complete seller toolkit for selling multiple products online, beautifully mostly for small business enterprises that cannot afford a website to sell their products.
That way you can market and sell all your products on a digital platform just like every other eCommerce platform and earn with your Paystack account. This is the fastest way to start selling.
How to create a Paystack StoreFront
The first criteria to create a Paystack storefront is to have a working Paystack account. If you don’t have it you can create a new account here https://dashboard.paystack.com/#/signup .
If you have an account just log in to Paystack Dashboard https://dashboard.paystack.com/#/login
Then Click on the Storefronts and New Storefront button. Fill in the fields you wish to name your storefront like the image below. The currency you choose is the currency you will be paid in. The link is what you are going to be sharing to make sells then click on create.
Once you succeded in creating a new storefront you will see this view to add products
You saw some previous products because I have added a few before. You can select from products if you have already added some products before or you just click on Add products to a storefront.
Add the name of the product, Description, Price, Quantity and you toggle the button if the product is a physical product else if it is something like Ebook or Internet subscription that is not physical you leave it off. This is necessary because if it is a physical product Paystack will need to collect the address from the buyer so you can be able to deliver the product to them.
Now click next to add media of the product you wish to sell. Make sure you add high-quality Images, videos, and probably gifs so the buyer can have a clear view of what they wanted to buy. You can add as many as 6 images. Just as the Image below then click save once it's done
After adding the product it will look like this. Remember you can add as many products as you want.
Here I added more products. It is easy to use so you have nothing to worry about.
Now you can customize the storefronts if you choose to. You can change the background color, add a welcome message, about us, contact (Phone number and WhatsApp number, Email), and social media links. Just as the Image below
Now you can preview how your storefront looks like. Copy the link and start sending it to your buyers, Sharing it on social media or wherever you think your buyers are.
This is the preview that the buyers will see when they want to buy and they order it just like eCommerce.
Please note that if you are selling a physical product you are mandated to add delivery fees within a geographical location.
But if you are selling a digital product, let’s say book or picture you are expected to add a link where they can get what they paid for after paying.
