About a Shopper's Account Page
A shopper's webstore account page is where a shopper can go to manage their account details and complete their checkout process.
When a shopper adds a product to their cart from a live sale and/or by commenting SOLD on a live sale post, featured product post, and/or Instagram story, they will be linked to their webstore account page to check out.
If you offer special promotions, such as a free shipping window or timed free shipping, a banner will appear at the top of the shopper's account page letting them know how much time they have to take advantage of that offer.
How a Shopper's Account Page Benefits Your Business
- Shoppers can easily view, manage, and preauthorize their waitlist products.
- Adding your product list to a shopper's account page can promote impulse or last-minute purchases.
- Give shoppers transparency into their account credit and referral reward balances.
Log in to Shopper's Webstore Account Page
Shoppers who navigate to your webstore URL (e.g., https://myshop.commentsold.com/store) or your custom domain (e.g., https://www.myshop.com) can access their account page by selecting the User icon in the top-right corner of the page.
If the shopper previously logged into their account page, the browser may remember this session and log the shopper in immediately. If not, the shopper will be prompted to log in. They can do so using Facebook or a custom login they created (i.e., log in using their email and custom password).
If a shopper hasn't registered with your shop, they can do so by selecting Continue with Facebook or selecting Sign Up beneath the login fields. Learn more about shopper registration via your webstore here.

View Cart and Waitlist
In the Checkout section, shoppers can select their shipping method and payment method, and review their shopping cart. If shoppers have a discount or coupon code, they'll enter this code on the right side of the page.
This section is also where shoppers can view and re-add previously expired products, and view products on their waiting list. If you offer waitlist preauthorization, then shoppers will be given the option to preauthorize the immediate purchase of a product once you have restocked it.
View Product List
In the Shop section, shoppers can browse active products you have for sale. Shoppers can select Add to Cart to select their preferred variant. If the product is out of stock, the shopper can select Add to Waitlist. If the product is in stock, the shopper can continue with adding the product to their cart.
For this product list to appear on a shopper's account page, you will need to enable the Product List setting on the right side of the Shop tab on your Settings page.
