How to Test Products in Your Store
Before sharing your Stan Store with your audience, we recommend testing out your products as if you were your own customer! 👀
Testing Your Store
You can easily test out your products and Store by setting the price of your product to $0, publishing it, and then heading over to your live Stan Store. Then you can go through checkout as if you're a customer! You can "purchase" or download the product for yourself, see how the checkout process works, and receive the confirmation email to your inbox! 🤟
🚨 Heads up! If you make a test purchase for a paid product and attempt to refund yourself, you'll be charged Stripe's refund transaction fees! More information about Stripe's transaction fees here!
To test your product as if you were a customer, follow the simple steps below:
- Head over to your Stan Store and select the product you'd like to edit.
- Click on the Checkout Page and scroll down to the Price section.
- Set the product to $0 and hit Publish at the very bottom of the page.
- Next, head over to your live Stan Store URL (https://stan.store/yourusername) and then click on the product you'd like to test. Next, fill out the form as if you were a customer, and submit!
- You should be redirected to a Confirmation Page which will link to your digital product, or provide you with next steps. Additionally, you should have received a confirmation email with the product attached! 💌
Didn't Receive a Confirmation Email?
Did you test purchase your own product but didn't receive a confirmation email? Try the following steps first!
- If it is a Digital Product or Freebie, double-check that you have uploaded a Product File to your product:
- Head over to your product and select the Checkout Page tab > scroll down to the Upload your Digital Product section and select Upload to upload a file or URL.
- Next, be sure to check your Spam or Promotions folder for an email from orders@stan.store
- If all else fails, try to check out once more using a different email address.
