Replace this area with a screenshot or short walkthrough video during the media sweep.

An offer with checkout turns a product, package, or service into something customers can buy. Review payment settings, customer fields, confirmation copy, and fulfillment before promoting it.

What this guide helps you do

  • Create or choose the offer customers will buy.
  • Connect the offer to checkout.
  • Test payment, confirmation, and customer record activity.

Before you start

  • Know the price, payment type, fulfillment process, and refund terms.
  • Confirm payment setup is complete.
  • Prepare confirmation copy and any follow-up journey or task.

Do it manually

  1. Open Commerce and choose the product or service offer.
  2. Enable checkout or create a checkout path for the offer.
  3. Configure price, quantity, tax, payment method, customer fields, and confirmation behavior.
  4. Preview the checkout page or link.
  5. Run a test checkout or review mode test if available.
  6. Confirm the purchase appears in Money and on the customer record.

Ask Faster AI

  • Create a checkout-ready offer for a paid workshop. Include price, registration fields, confirmation copy, and follow-up review steps.
  • Review this checkout offer and tell me what could block a customer from buying.
  • Draft a confirmation message for this offer and keep it ready for approval.

Review before saving or publishing

  • Check price, fees, terms, required fields, and confirmation email before launch.
  • Confirm customer sync and Money activity work after a test purchase.
  • Do not send traffic to the checkout until the public link is tested.

Common issues and fixes

  • If checkout opens but payment fails, review payment setup.
  • If customers are not created, check required email and customer mapping.
  • If the confirmation is wrong, update the checkout or notification copy before relaunching.

Use it in daily operations

  • Use checkout links in campaigns only after test purchase review.
  • Track early purchases to catch fulfillment issues.
  • Review checkout settings after price or policy changes.

Team handoff

  • Write down what changed, who owns the next review, and which page, customer record, campaign, or plugin record should be checked next.
  • If the work affects customers, include the public URL, test result, and any unresolved placeholder media in the handoff note.
  • When Faster AI helped prepare the change, ask it to summarize the draft and review checklist so a teammate can approve the work without retracing every click.
