So let's get right into this Wix website tutorial on Wix payments, which includes an entire
Wix review for online store so that you can sell digital products using Wix's online store
builder.
First off, if you don't have a Wix account yet, just click on the link in the description
box below to sign up for free.
Since you plan on accepting online payments with your Wix website, you'll need to sign
up for a Wix eCommerce plan.
Wix's business and eCommerce plans range from $23 per month for the Business Basic plan
up to custom pricing for the Enterprise plan.
With Wix eCommerce, you can create an online store, run and grow your eCommerce business
If you wish to create a new eCommerce website in Wix, login to your Wix account, and then
click on '+ create new site' on the top, right-hand side.
When asked, 'what kind of website are you creating?', click on 'online store', and then
on 'next'.
Choose how you want to create your website.
You can either let Wix ADI create a website for you, where all you have to do is answer
a few simple questions and automatically get a website designed just for you in minutes,
or create your website with the Editor, where you start with a template and make it your
own, with easy drag and drop & 1000s of design features.
In this Wix eCommerce website tutorial, I'll be showing you how to create an eCommerce
platform using the editor, so I'll go ahead and click on 'edit a template' below that
section.
For more details on how to use Wix ADI to create a website, make sure to watch my video
on that topic.
I'll leave the link to it in the description box below.
Since you previously answered you wanted to create an online store, Wix will automatically
provide you with online store website templates.
You can either view all of these templates, or sort them by online store type, including
fashion and clothing, jewelry and accessories, arts and crafts, home and decor, beauty and
wellness, food and drinks, sports and outdoors, electronics, kids and babies, books and publishers,
pets and animals, and CBD.
If you hover your mouse over any of these eCommerce platform templates, you can click
on 'info' at the bottom to get more information about the online store template, including
what it's good for and its description, click to view the template, including a full demo,
or click to edit the template, and access the Wix editor and start customizing its design.
If you already have a Wix website, and wish to transform that into an eCommerce platform,
you can do that as well.
After you've logged in to your Wix account, hover your mouse over the website you wish
to add an online store to, and then click on the pencil icon to access its Wix editor.
In your Wix editor, click on 'my business' on the left-hand side panel, and then on the
+ icon next to Wix stores.
Since I already added Wix stores to my website, the word 'manage' appears instead.
For more details on 'How To Accept Payments On Wix + Add An Online Store In Wix', make
sure to watch my video on that topic.
I'll leave the link to it in the description box below.
Independent of whether you're creating a new eCommerce website in Wix or adding an online
store to your existing Wix website, this 'manage' section of Wix stores is where you can access
all of the features you need to build your professional eCommerce platform in Wix to
sell online.
So let's go ahead and click on that.
You can click on 'manage products', to view your existing Wix eCommerce products, import
multiple products to your store, export your physical products to a CSV file, rearrange
the order of your products from the collections page, or add a new product.
This new product can either be a digital file or a physical product.
For more details on how to 'Sell Digital Products In Wix + Add A Digital File To Your Online
Store', make sure to watch my video on that topic.
I'll leave the link to it in the description box below.
Under 'store products' on the left-hand side panel, you can also click to view your eCommerce
platform's inventory, where you can select whether an item is in stock or out of stock,
and track quantity and edit product info, click on 'collections' to view your existing
collections or add a new collection, click on 'back in stock requests' to recover lost
sales by letting customers request notifications for out of stock products, planning your inventory
according to customer demand, and sending automated emails to notify customers when
products are back in stock, as well as click on 'find products to sell' to add ready-to-sell
products to your store and let suppliers take care of inventory and shipping.
Let's x out of this 'store products' tab and head back to the Wix stores settings.
When you click on 'go to dashboard', you'll be taken to your Wix site's dashboard at large.
Let's x out of this again and now click on 'add store elements'.
This is where you can customize your Wix eCommerce platform website by adding a grid product
gallery, slider product gallery, related products, product widget, shopping cart, add to cart
button and currency converter on any page of your choice.
Let's x out of this 'add store elements' tab, click on 'my business' from the left-hand
side panel, 'Wix stores' and then on 'manage'.
If you click on 'manage pages', this is where you can access, customize and edit your Wix
store pages, including your product page, shop page, cart page and thank you page.
Let's x out of this 'manage pages' tab, click on 'my business' from the left-hand side panel,
'Wix stores' and then on 'manage'.
If you click on 'find products to sell', you'll head back to that dropshipping and print on
demand page we were previously on, where you can sell products from dropshipping suppliers
or design and sell print on demand products directly from your Wix eCommerce website.
Let's x out of this 'find products to sell' tab and head back to the Wix stores settings.
If you click on 'add related apps', you'll be redirected to the Wix app store, where
you can add-on a number of extra features to your site in a number of different categories.
There are both free and paid add-ons, as well as ones that are created by Wix and others
that are created by third party developers.
Let's x out of this 'add related apps' tab, click on 'my business' from the left-hand
side panel, 'Wix stores' and then on 'manage'.
You can also click on 'learn more' to access the Wix stores help center, or on delete app
if you wish to delete your Wix store entirely.
As previously mentioned, to accept payments and orders directly from your Wix eCommerce
website, you'll need to upgrade to a Wix eCommerce plan.
For those who wish to accept payments in Wix without upgrading to a Wix eCommerce plan,
you can do so by adding a Paypal button on your Wix website.
For more details on how to do that, make sure to watch my video on 'Accepting Payments On
Wix By Adding PayPal To Your Wix Website'.
I'll leave the link to it in the description box below.
Whenever you make a change to your Wix eCommerce website, always remember to click on 'save'
and then on 'publish' on the top, right-hand side to make your changes active.
