About Collections
Product collections allow retailers to group products by a specific category. Not only do collections help organize a webstore and mobile app, but they enable shoppers to quickly locate the products they wish to browse and purchase.
Once a retailer creates a collection, they can add products to the collection. This includes adding a product selection to a collection. Make sure products are webstore and mobile app ready with a great description and media before adding them to a collection.
