You can sell products, packages, Purchase Options, events, or gift cards to clients through your store. You can also apply discounts or redeem eligible rewards during checkout.
When making a sale, keep the following information in mind:
- Shopping carts will automatically save their contents for a specific client. For example, if you add three items to a client’s shopping cart and then select a new client, an empty shopping cart for the new client will be displayed. When you go back to the original client, you’ll see the three items still in their shopping cart. Up to six client shopping carts can be saved at any given time, as well as one walk-in shopping cart. Saved shopping carts will be cleared when you sign out of WellnessLiving.
- In multi-location businesses, revenue from completed sales is assigned to a specific location in WellnessLiving. For more information, see FAQ: How is location revenue tracked?
- If a client makes a purchase from a multi-location business that uses a different merchant processor with one or more locations, the merchant processor for the location in which the client’s credit card or ACH information is saved will be used to process the transaction. To change the billing location, choose a different payment method in the client’s Passes & Memberships page. For more information, see Changing a client’s payment method for a Purchase Option.
- To add a gift card to the shopping cart, you’ll have to perform additional actions. For more information, see Selling a gift card.
- You can’t add more than 500 items to the cart. This limit factors in the number of distinct items in a package, so if you offer big packages with hundreds of items (for example, single-visit session passes), you’ll only be able to sell a few of them per checkout.
NoteIf you apply one discount to an individual item in the shopping cart, then apply another discount to the entire cart, the discount on the individual item will first be subtracted from the original price of the item to calculate the cart’s subtotal, and then the discount applied to the entire cart will be subtracted from the subtotal to calculate the cart’s total.
For example, if item 1 in the cart has a price of $100 and a discount of 20% is applied to the item and item 2 in the cart has a price of $20, the subtotal for the cart will be $100. Then, if a discount of 5% is also applied to the entire cart, the cart’s total will be $95.
For more information on applying discounts to individual items in the shopping cart, see Managing items in the shopping cart.
