Check-out

You can customize the checkout steps, add more content using the website builder, and enable additional features such as express checkout and sign in/up at checkout.

You can use building blocks to add content at any step of the checkout process. To do so, from any checkout page, go to Edit ‣ Blocks, and drag and drop building blocks to the page.

Nota

Note that content added through building blocks is specific to each step.

Checkout steps

Review order: promo code (and subtotal)

If you have enabled Discounts, Loyalty, & Gift Card in the settings (Website ‣ Configuration ‣ Settings ‣ Shop - Products), you can enable the Promo Code field (Edit ‣ Customize) from any checkout page. Customers can then redeem gift cards and promotional codes at the Review Order step.

Furthermore, you can display the subtotal with discounts applied by enabling Show Discount in Subtotal.

Address: B2B fields

Optional TIN/VAT and Company Name fields can be added to the Billing Address form for B2B customers, at the Address step. To add the fields, go to Edit ‣ Customize from any checkout page, and enable Show B2B fields.

Request extra info (additional step)

You can request Extra Info from the customer by adding an Extra Info step between the Address and Confirm Order steps. To do so, go to Edit ‣ Customize from any checkout page, and enable Extra Step Option.

Checkout steps

The Extra Info step is an online form linked to the quotation or sales order of the customer. The information added during that step can be found on the quotation or sales order of the customer from the back end, in the Sales app.

When enabled, you can remove, add, and modify fields of the form by clicking on Edit in the top-right corner, and then clicking on any of the form’s fields. All customization options, as well as the + Field button to add new fields, are available at the bottom of the Customize menu under the Field section.

Express checkout

You can enable a Buy Now button on products” pages which instantly takes the customer to the Confirm Order checkout page, instead of adding the product to the cart. To do so, go to Website ‣ Configuration ‣ Settings ‣ Shop - Checkout Process section and tick Buy Now. Alternatively, the Buy Now button can also be enabled from any product’s page by going Edit ‣ Customize, in the Cart section.

The button can be found next to the Add to Cart button on the product’s page.

Guest and signed-in checkout

It is possible to introduce a checkout policy under which customers can either checkout as guests or signed-in users only. Customers can also checkout as guest, and optionally sign up later in order to track their order, if enabled.

To select a policy, go to Website ‣ Configuration ‣ Settings ‣ Shop - Checkout Process. You can choose between:

  • Optional: allows guests to checkout and later register from the order confirmation email to track their order;

  • Disabled (buy as guest): customers can only checkout as guests;

  • Mandatory (no guest checkout): customers can only checkout if they have signed-in.

B2B access restriction

If you wish to restrict checkout only to selected B2B customers, enable Mandatory (no guest checkout) and go to Website ‣ eCommerce ‣ Customers. Select the customer you wish to grant access to, click Action ‣ Grant portal access, and click Grant Access.

Suggerimento

Settings are website-specific, which means you can set up a B2C website allowing guest checkout, and another for B2B customers with mandatory sign-in.

Nota

Users can only have one portal access per email. They cannot be granted access to two different portals with the same email address.

Shared customer accounts

If you enable Shared Customer Accounts under Website ‣ Configuration ‣ Settings ‣ Privacy section, you can allow or disallow access to all websites for one same account.
