Manage product characteristics

Product title:

Enter a descriptive and accurate title for your product as it will appear on your e-shop page.

Product description:

Craft a compelling description that not only details the product but also includes any unique selling points or interesting facts. This helps in connecting with potential buyers on a personal level.

Use tags (premium feature)

Enhance your product’s discoverability by adding relevant tags such as ‘sustainable’, ‘handcrafted’, or ‘made in France’. These tags provide quick information that might align with your buyers’ values or interests.

Add media

Image: Choose and upload a high-quality images of your product.

Additional media (premium plan): If you’re on a premium plan, consider adding extra visuals like mockups or videos. You can drag and drop media to organize them in your preferred order on the product page.

Add product stories

From the "Product Stories" section, proceed as follows:

  • Click on Add Video

  • You have two options to add your story:

    • Paste a link: Simply paste a link from an Instagram or TikTok story.

    • Connect your account: You can connect your Instagram account and select the story you want to feature on your product page.

Prices & variants

From the “Prices & variants” section, proceed as follows:

  • Variant name: Start by setting your variant name.

  • Price: Determine a price for each variant.

  • Set quantity available: Specify how many items are available for each variant. Enter ‘0’ (zero) for items that are sold out.

  • Add variant: If you offer multiple variants, add them here.

Shipping

Decide how you want to handle shipping:

  • Worldwide shipping: Check “Allow worldwide shipping” if you offer it.

  • Add shipping destinations: Select the countries to which you allow shipping.

  • Price alone: Set a shipping price for the product if ordered alone.

  • Price with other products: Define the shipping price when multiple products are ordered together. The system will apply the highest product shipping price, then add the “Price with Others” for each additional item

Hand delivery option

For a personal touch, you can enable hand delivery:

  • Toggle the “Switch” to enable.

  • Specify the city where hand delivery is available.

  • Save change: Remember to save your changes.

You can only save one location.

Now that you know how to list and manage physical goods in your store, you’re all set to broaden your product range and reach new customers. Follow these steps to ensure your products are presented attractively and your shipping options meet your buyers’ needs.
