Add an electronic / physical product to your catalog

Overview

Whether you add electronic or physical/tangible goods to your catalog to sell and deliver to your customers, the process is the same. You need to use the 2Checkout Control Panel to define the details of your product. For physical products, you need to define the weight and the handling fees associated with your tangible products.

Availability

Selling physical goods is available upon request. Contact 2Checkout for additional details.

Requirements

Make sure to have the mandatory physical product info on hand.
