How To Add Products in eCommerce Website Builder

The Website Builder Store platform lets you add and manage your Products all in one place, making it easy for you to monitor pricing and set products on sale anytime.

When adding a Product, a pop-up window appears that lets you set every detail of the Product to ensure you are able to get it across your customers with ease. Here you are able to set the product name, add photos, set the pricing and prices on sale, assign products to a category, add a product description, or even add variants for each product like size or color and set up options for each variant.

Important: The Store option is only available for the eCommerce Website Builder plan and will not appear on all other Website Builder plans. If you want to easily set up an Online Store with complete SSL protection and easy setup and monitoring of Products and Orders, you will need to upgrade your current Website Builder plan or purchase a new eCommerce Website Builder plan.
