Why should I choose a paid managed shop solution?
A paid managed shop solution like the IONOS eCommerce Plugin simplifies the setup and management of your online shop. It's compatible with all popular CMS platforms such as WordPress, Joomla!, or Typo3, allowing you to easily integrate your shop with your existing website.
No technical skills are required as we handle the entire setup and maintenance, including automatic backups and secure payment processing. We also ensure full market compliance and legal conformity, and offer transparent fixed pricing.
How do I integrate a "Buy Now" button on my existing website for one product or my whole range?
Adding individual products or your entire product range to your existing website is very straightforward, whichever CMS you're using. It works just as well with a Weebly website builder as with a more complex CMS like Joomla!.
Simply select the relevant product and the 'Buy Now' button in the menu.
You can then edit the design settings, and a HTML snippet will be automatically generated. You just need to copy and paste it into your website builder or CMS and you're done.
Integrating an entire store is just as easy. Simply select 'Websites' as the sales channel and enter the HTML snippet. You only need to do that once and your products, store, and design will automatically be updated.
Does the eCommerce Plugin work with WordPress?
Yes – you can easily integrate a shop into your WordPress website with the eCommerce Plugin. We’ve developed a WordPress plugin that you can download from your eCommerce Plugin dashboard. Then, you just need to upload that to your WordPress site.
Can I really use the eCommerce Plugin everywhere?
Yes! We've got special solutions for some CMS like WordPress, but you can easily add a code snippet to any website.
How can I make sure that my shop matches my website?
When you add an online store, it’ll automatically fit in with your website’s design. You can also customise your online store even further in a few clicks. Change the colour scheme, resize product images and more.
How do I get paid when someone buys my product?
The payment process depends on which payment method or gateway you choose. When a customer purchases through the eCommerce Plugin, the transaction is processed by a third-party company like PayPal. You'll then receive the money in the account you've set up with the gateway or payment services provider.
Offline payment methods can be used as well, like cash on delivery, direct debit, or over the phone payments. If you offer these options, you'll need to give your customers instructions on how to pay you. You can either provide this information during checkout or after the order has been placed, e.g. by email.
Which payment methods are supported?
PayPal Express Checkout is the most frequently used payment option. One reason is that customers want to progress from the social shopping cart to order confirmation as quickly as possible. Another reason for its popularity is that the buyer is able to skip the part where they normally have to insert their data in the checkout process. Payment and shipment data is delivered by PayPal, which saves them having to enter all this information.
Customers also frequently choose Stripe and Square payment methods due to its quick payment transactions.
In order to select the payment options for your business, follow these steps:
- Open a business account with the payment solution provider of your choice.
- Go to the shop dashboard and click on the payment options.
- Choose your payment method from these options.
- Connect the payment option to your business account to begin receiving payments.
