How to enable a shopping cart on your flipbook

With our PRO subscription, you can easily sell your products via your flipbook’s shopping cart, where your shoppers can shop & order directly from your flipbook! Your shoppers can also create wish lists to send to friends and family for gift ideas for all occasions. 

You can enable the shopping cart / wish list on your flipbook by following the 3 steps below:

• Enable the shopping cart feature on your desired flipbook
• Customize the shopping cart’s options
• Add product links over the products in your flipbook 

 

 

STEP 1: How to enable the shopping cart feature

1.1) Select the flipbook you’d like to use to sell your products. Click on the “SHOPPING CART” tab in the flipbook’s settings.

 

1.2) To enable the shopping cart function on your flipbook, select "Activate Shopping Cart".

 

 

STEP 2: How to customize the shopping cart’s options

2.1) Select which type of “shopping cart” experience you’d like to enable for your shoppers. You can select either:
 

• Shopping Cart - When shoppers put items into their shopping cart and “checkout” - the order placed will go directly to your company for processing. 
• Wish List - When shoppers put items into their shopping cart and “checkout” - their wish list will be emailed to the contact of their choice (friend, family member, colleague etc). This option is great for gift/wedding registries.

2.2) After selecting the shopping cart experience, you should customize your shopping cart’s order form by adding your desired text into the input fields and choosing  the appropriate currency for your products to be displayed in. You can add and customize additional order form fields by clicking on the “ADD ANOTHER FIELD” button. Once finished, click "SAVE CHANGES".

 

 
2.3) After you’ve inserted text into each input field and saved your changes,  you can preview how your order form will look to your shoppers.

 

2.4) Once you’re done customizing your order form, select “CUSTOMIZE CONFIRMATION MESSAGE AND EMAIL”. Here, you can customize the content of the confirmation message and email your clients receive after ordering.

 

 

STEP 3: How to activate discount codes for your shoppers to use at checkout

3.1) To enable the discount code function on your flipbook’s shopping cart, click on the “Activate Discount Code” Box.

 

 

 

3.2) Click on “”ADD DISCOUNT”.  In the field “Discount Code #1”, type in the code your clients would enter to receive their discount (For example: SAVE10, BOXINGDAY, DEAL25 etc.). In the “Discount %” field, type in the percentage of the discount. This percentage amount will be deducted from your client’s total order at checkout.

 

 

 

3.3) To add a second discount code, click “ADD ANOTHER DISCOUNT”  and repeat step 3.2. Once finished, click "SAVE CHANGES". 

 

*Please note: A maximum of 2 discount codes can be active at once.

 

STEP 4: How to add product links over products in your flipbook

 4.1) Once you have enabled and set up the shopping cart, you will be able to add product links over the products in your flipbook. Click on LINKS/VIDEO & SEO in the flipbook’s settings.
