Shop Settings: Configure Your Store
Shop Settings controls whether customers can place orders and how your WhatsApp shop looks and sounds. Review the full setup before enabling order processing.
Open Shop Settings
- Open your Workspace.
- Go to Shop.
- Select Shop Settings.
General Settings
- Enable Order Processing — turns the shopping and order experience on or off.
- Assigned Agent — selects the assistant that handles related customer conversations.
- Currency — controls the code and symbol shown with prices.
- Default Payment Method — sets the option customers see by default.
- Store Name — identifies your shop in customer-facing messages.
- Settlement Details — tells the supported payment provider where eligible online-payment funds should be settled.
Verify settlement changes carefully and limit access to trusted team members.
Customer-Facing Wording
You can customize the text customers see throughout the experience:
- Main menu headings and buttons.
- Catalogue and product-list guidance.
- Cart messages and actions.
- Checkout and payment wording.
- Order confirmation and tracking messages.
- WhatsApp Form field labels.
- Screen titles and completion messages.
Use short, familiar terms and a consistent brand voice. WhatsApp has limited space for some labels and buttons, so place longer explanations in the message or screen body.
