Set up your Quick Shopping Cart store with a dedicated domain to allow your customers access your store when they enter your domain name in the address bar of their browser (for example, www.best-widgets.com). You can also set up your storefront with a subdomain (for example, shop.best-widgets.com).

To Set Up Your Quick Shopping Cart

  1. Log in to your Account Manager.
  2. In the My Products section, click Quick Shopping Cart.
  3. In the Quick Shopping Cart list, click Open next to the New Account you want to set up.
  4. Read the End User License Agreement, and then click Accept.
  5. Specify whether you want to use an available domain from your account, an available sub domain from your account, or a domain registered elsewhere.

    NOTE: When setting up Quick Shopping Cart on a domain registered elsewhere, you need to manually modify the A record to point to your store's IP address. See Finding Your Store IP Address.

  6. Enter the following information:
    Email Address
    Enter the email address you want associated with the store.
    Company or Individual Name
    Enter the name you want associated with the store.
    Phone
    Enter the phone number you want associate with the store
    Slogan
    Enter the slogan you want to use with the store.
  7. Click OK.
  8. To confirm you want to set up the store for the domain name you entered, click OK.
  9. From the Home Page, use the buttons at the top of screen to specify the information necessary for creating your storefront.
