How to Use the Catalog Feature in Website Builder

The Catalog Feature is an Online Store Feature that lets you easily display a listing of all your Products on your website page, along with their details, or customise it to show only the Products from a specific Category, allowing your viewers to easily browse through it and shop without having to go to your actual Website Builder Store.

Important: The Store option is only available for the eCommerce Website Builder plan and will not appear on all other Website Builder plans. If you want to easily set up an Online Store with complete SSL protection and easy setup and monitoring of Products and Orders, you will need to upgrade your current Website Builder plan or purchase a new eCommerce Website Builder plan.
