Checkout links

A checkout link holds an order you put together for one customer: prints from your website, how many of each, the shipping they pay and any discount. Your customer opens it on your website, adds their address and pays by card, and the order arrives in Orders like any other.

Steps

1. Open Products, then the Checkout links tab. You can also press New, then New checkout link.
2. Under New link, set how many of each print go in the order.
3. Choose the Shipping: Calculated is NZ Post's price for their address, as on your website. You can also choose Free, or Set a price.
4. Choose a Discount if you like: % off or $ off.
5. Under For, you can name the link (only you see it), add your customer's name and email, and write a note they see at checkout. Set how many days the link works for.
6. Press Make checkout link, then Copy link, and send it to your customer by email or message.

Good to know

• Your website must be live, with something for sale, before you can make a link.
• A link works once. By default it works for 14 days, and you can make that up to 90.
• A discount comes off the prints, from your margin. It can never take a print below what it costs you to make.
• A shipping price you set is what your customer pays. STIL LAB covers the rest of the real cost.
• The name and email you add start your customer's checkout form. They can change them.
• If you use the old Studio, Checkout links is a tab of Orders.
• Your links shows each link as Open, Ordered, Cancelled or Expired. Press Cancel link to stop an open link working. An ordered link leads to its order.
