Some Common Questions and Answers
about Shopping Carts.  


What is Quick Shopping Cart?

Quick Shopping Cart helps you easily build a professional, high-quality online store front that you can host anywhere you decide; either as its own dedicated Web site (www.my-web-site.com) or as a sub-domain linked from your existing Web site (www.shop. my-web-site.com ). All you need for your shopping cart is a domain name.

You can design the look of your store; add products to your shopping cart catalog; and select shipping, payment, and tax options. After you set up your store, you can publish it, and you're in business. There are several shopping cart plans designed to meet the needs of any size online business.    


How do I select the right Quick Shopping Cart plan for my business?

We offer various Quick Shopping Cart plans to suit any business size. All of our shopping cart plans support the same features, while offering varying amounts of disk space and bandwidth. Each shopping cart plan size is based on the number of products you offer in your store catalog. You can select the shopping cart plan that meets your needs based on the size of your product list that you offer.


How will my customers access my Quick Shopping Cart online store?

If you set up your Quick Shopping Cart store as a Dedicated Domain, your customers access your store by entering your domain name in the address bar of their browser.

But if you set up your Quick Shopping Cart store as a Sub-Domain, you will need to add a link on your web site that will lead your customers to the sub-domain for your store. Your customers can also access your store by entering the sub-domain URL of the store (www.shop.mywebsite.com). 


Do I need an SSL Certificate for my Quick Shopping Cart site?

If you are planning to accept credit cards in your shopping cart, either through a payment gateway or using a POS (Point Of Sale) credit card machine, then you must have an SSL Certificate for your site. This is to ensure the security of your site when handling your customers' personal and credit card information.

If you are not planning to accept credit cards in your shopping cart store front through a payment gateway or using a POS, then you do not have to have an SSL Certificate.
