    Selling online

    How it works - Examples - Outline of what's required - Costs
     

    You can now make sales and take orders via your easisites website using PayPal.

    People pay online by credit/debit card and you send or reserve whatever goods or services they order.

    How it works

    After every online purchase PayPal email you with the order details so you can pack and mail the items.

    PayPal hold the money for 30 days (long enough for the customer to complain if you fail to deliver). After the 30 days you can have the money transferred into your bank. Each sale costs 20pence plus 4.5% so add a bit to your prices if you want to cover that.

    Examples

    For examples, take a look at

    www.floral-aura.co.uk
    www.easisites.co.uk/webbsgreenfarmwool

    You'll see a page on each dedicated to online shopping. Try it out. By all means click the shopping buttons. If you don't go further and put in a credit card number nothing you do gets traced or recorded.

    Outline of what's required

    If you would like to add this facility to your easisites website, you can either do it yourself - or...

    If it all seems too daunting, we can do it for you.

    In any case, go to www.paypal.com and open an account. This is free and takes 10 minutes on the web.

    To set everything up for yourself, follow the PayPal instructions to code the selling buttons - including setting up rules for VAT and postage costs - and copy/paste each button code into a freestyle text area of your easisites website.

    We suggest you get a friend to test it by buying something online.

    If you would like us to build a payment page into your easisites website, email us or just give us a call on 01474 532886 or 329276.

    Costs

    Our charge for building a payment page into your easisites website is a mere £50 (+VAT), plus £5 (+VAT) per item to be sold.

    So, if you have ten items you want to sell online, that means we'll charge £100 to set everything up for you. (That's £100 compared to the £2K or £3K you might be quoted elsewhere!)
