Create your shop
Sign up at dashboard.shoppex.io. After confirming your email you land on a fresh shop with a URL likeyourshop.shoppex.io — that URL is live and ready,
you just don’t have products on it yet.
Connect a payment gateway
Open Settings → Payment gateways (/settings/payments/gateways). Pick at least one provider:
- Stripe for cards. Paste your Publishable Key and Secret Key from your Stripe Dashboard. Shoppex validates them, creates a webhook on your Stripe account, and registers Apple Pay automatically.
- PayPal for buyers who prefer it. Paste a Client ID and Secret from the PayPal Developer Console.
- PayPal Friends & Family for the no-fee route. Just your PayPal email, plus IPN configured on PayPal’s side.
- Cash App (US only). Connect your
$cashtagwith Gmail forwarding. - Crypto through Cryptomus or Oxapay (multi-coin aggregators), or by adding a direct wallet address for BTC, LTC, ETH, or Bitcoin Lightning.
Add your first product
Go to Products → New product (/products/create). Pick the fulfillment mode that fits
what you sell:
- File — Upload a downloadable file. The buyer gets a download link after payment.
- Serials — Upload a list of single-use codes (license keys, gift codes). Each buyer gets a unique one.
- Service — Manual fulfillment. You get notified after payment and deliver yourself.
- Subscription — Recurring billing on the schedule you set.
- Dynamic — Generated per order via your own webhook endpoint.
- Info card — Information-only product, no automatic delivery.
