E-commerce websites show products as catalogues or shops where people can buy them. Ecommerce websites have several features. These are
- Shipment management: the SH can have a feature where you can offer free shipping or flat-rate shipping. If you would like only to ship your products to a specific country, you can easily configure these settings in your dashboard too. Give customers the option of pickup, local delivery, or shipping. Local options are available based on customer location.
- Set the currency, language, and measurement units (inches, centimetres, or whatever) appropriate for your location.
- User accounts: Allow customers to register and choose whether or not to generate usernames and passwords automatically. Display a returning customer's login reminder. Enable guest checkout for those who do not want to register.
