Configure the customer shop

Choose how signed-in customers see prices, product options, and filter tags on the Shop page.

What you will accomplish

Signed-in customers will open Shop in the customer app and see products that are easy to scan: grouped options when you want one card per product, prices that match how you talk about cost, and filter tags in a helpful order.

When you finish, your team can explain a price on the phone and have it match what the customer sees on their screen.

When to use this guide

Use this guide when customers buy storage plans, services, or memberships from the signed-in Shop page.

You might need this when:

  • A customer says the shop price does not match the invoice
  • One product has several price options and the list looks too long
  • You added tags such as Storage, Detailing, or Membership and want them in a clear order
  • You are about to invite customers to pay online for the first time

Before you start

Step 1: Open the Shop page in Customer app

  1. Go to Website & customer app

    In the dashboard sidebar, open Settings, then Website & customer app.

    You can also go directly to Settings > Website & customer app.

    Expected result: The page title is Website & customer app. You see Shareable links at the top.

  2. Scroll to Customer app

    Scroll to the Customer app section.

    Expected result: You see a phone-sized live preview and a row of page names such as Home, Events, Cars, Schedule, Shop, Billing, Documents, and Settings.

  3. Click Shop

    Click Shop in that page row (labeled Customer app pages).

    Why this matters: Shop settings only appear after you select Shop. If you stay on Home, you will edit the home screen instead.

    Expected result: The editor shows Shop catalog and Shop filter tags. The preview shows the Shop page.

Click **Shop** in the page row under **Customer app**. This is how you switch from the home screen to shop settings.

Step 2: Set Shop catalog display

Shop catalog controls how product cards look.

  1. Find Shop catalog

    On the Shop page, expand Shop catalog if it is collapsed.

    Expected result: You see three switches: Group product options, Show prices including tax, and Show prices including processing fees.

  2. Choose Group product options

    Turn Group product options on when one product has several prices (for example Indoor / Outdoor, or Monthly / Annual).

    Customers see one card, then click through to pick an option.

    Turn it off when every price should appear as its own card on the list.

    Why this matters: A long list of nearly identical cards is hard to scan on a phone. Grouping keeps the shop short.

  3. Choose Show prices including tax

    Turn Show prices including tax on when you want shop cards to show the tax-included total.

    Turn it off when you want the card to show the amount before tax.

    Checkout still adds the correct tax either way.

  4. Choose Show prices including processing fees

    Turn Show prices including processing fees on when the card should show the card or bank fee already included.

    Turn it off when the card should show the service amount before those fees.

    Expected result: Each switch saves on its own. You may see a short Saved message. The phone preview updates to match.

What each switch means in plain English

SwitchWhen it is onWhen it is off
Group product optionsOne card per product. The customer opens it to see every price option.Each price option is its own card on the shop list.
Show prices including taxThe number on the card includes tax.The number on the card is before tax.
Show prices including processing feesThe number on the card includes card or bank fees.The number on the card is the service amount only.

Step 3: Put filter tags in a helpful order

Shop filter tags are the chips customers tap to narrow the list (for example Storage, Detailing, Membership).

Tags come from each product. You add them on the product in Payments > Products and services. This settings page only orders tags that already exist.

  1. Find Shop filter tags

    Still on the Shop page, expand Shop filter tags.

  2. If you see No shop tags yet

    Open Payments > Products and services, edit a product, and add customer-facing tags such as Storage or Detailing.

    Come back to Shop filter tags. The tags appear after you save the product.

    Why this matters: Empty tag chips confuse customers. Add tags only when you have more than one kind of product.

  3. Drag tags into the order customers should see

    Drag the handle on the left of each tag.

    Put the most common choice first. Many facilities use: StorageServicesMembership.

  4. Click Save if you see it

    After you drag, click Save if a Save button appears.

    Expected result: The preview filter chips match the new order.

Drag tags into the order customers should tap first. Click **Save** if it appears after you reorder.

Step 4: Confirm Shop appears in bottom navigation

If customers cannot find Shop, the Shop tab may be missing from bottom navigation on the Home page.

  1. Click Home in the page row

    In Customer app, click Home.

  2. Check Bottom navigation

    Expand Bottom navigation. Confirm a tab labeled Shop (or similar) is present and points to the shop page.

    If you removed it earlier, click Add nav item and add Shop back.

    See Customize the customer mobile app for home screen and tab help.

Step 5: Preview like a customer

  1. Copy Customer login

    Scroll to Shareable links at the top of the same settings page. Click Copy on Customer login.

  2. Open a private browser window

    Use a private or incognito window so you are not signed in as staff.

  3. Sign in as a test customer

    Enter an email from a test customer in Contacts.

    Open Shop from the bottom tabs.

    Expected result: Product names, grouped options, prices, and tag chips match the preview you set in Customer app.

After sign-in, **Shop** should match the catalog switches and tag order you set. Grouped storage shows one card with a price range. If it does not match, refresh or sign out and back in.

What success looks like

  • You opened Shop from the page row in Settings > Website & customer app.
  • Group product options matches how you want the list to look.
  • Tax and fee switches match how your team quotes prices on the phone.
  • Filter tags are in a customer-friendly order—or hidden because you have no tags yet.
  • A test customer can open Shop from the customer app and see the same layout.
