    • You can upload up to 5 images (max 500KB each, recommended 500px x 500px).
    • Click the star icon on an image to set it as the default image (shown in product listings).

Step 2: Pricing

Set the product's pricing:

  2. Optionally enter a Compare at Price -- an original or RRP price that will be shown with a strikethrough to indicate a discount.
  3. Click Next to continue to additional details.

The Add Product wizard showing Step 2: Product Pricing with fields for price and compare at price.

tip

If you set both a price and a compare-at price, customers will see the discount on the store widget (e.g., $59.99 $45.00).

Step 3: Additional Details

Configure the remaining product settings:

Description

  1. Enter a short Brief description -- appears in product listings and search results. You can click the AI Generate button to automatically create one based on the product name.
  2. Use the Full description editor for a detailed product description with rich text formatting. An AI Generate button is also available here.

Weight & Dimensions

These optional fields help with product information display:

  1. Enter the Weight and select a unit (kg, lb, g, or oz).
  2. Enter Dimensions as a text string (e.g., "12 x 8 x 4 in").

Weight and dimensions are displayed on the product detail page in the store widget.

Variations

If your product comes in different options (e.g., sizes or colors):

  1. Toggle Variations on.
  2. In the Property list, add variation properties by entering a name (e.g., "Size", "Color"). Click + Add property to add more.
  3. After creating the product, you can add specific variation values (e.g., "Small", "Medium", "Large" for Size) from the product's Variations tab.

For a detailed guide on setting up variations, see Product Variations.

Inventory Tracking

Control stock levels for the product:

  1. Toggle Track inventory on if you want to monitor stock quantities.
  2. Choose the Tracking type:
    • Group -- Stock is tracked as a total quantity. Best for products where individual items don't need to be identified.
    • Item -- Each item is tracked individually with optional identifiers and barcodes. Best for serialized or unique items.
  3. After creating the product, you can manage stock quantities from the product's Inventory tab.

You can set a low-stock threshold in Settings > Store to receive alerts when products are running low. See Store Settings for more details.

For a detailed guide on both tracking types, see Inventory Management.

Saving

Click Add Product to create the product. You will be taken back to the product listing where your new product will appear.

tip

New products are created with Active status by default, meaning they are immediately visible to customers. You can change the status to Archived at any time from the product detail page to hide it.
