Store Pickup Configuration

The sellers will get the option to enable the Store Pick up from their seller panel.

For this, the seller needs to visit the Configuration section of the seller panel where they can configure the store pickup details.

Take a glance at the procedure:

The seller can create multiple store pickup locations.

Location created.

The seller can edit, disable, delete the locations added. Moreover, they can add more locations. Go to Seller End>>Configurations>>Locations.

Now, once the seller visits the Store Pickup Configuration section, he/she can enable the Store Pickup button to make it visible for the customers on the frontend of every product page.

Once the seller enables the Store Pickup tab, he/she can select whether he/she wants to enable this feature on all products or on some specific products of his/her store.

Now, there will be two options and the seller will choose either (Delivery + Store Pickup) or Only Store Pickup option to display for the customers on the product page.

The seller can also select a default option for the customers either Store Pickup or Delivery.

NOTE: If the seller/admin enables the “USE LOCATION FOR PRODUCT” option,

And disable store pickup for a particular location from the Locations section, inventory management will still be applicable for that location.

  • In case the seller wants to enable the store pickup option for all the products, the store pickup option will be available for all the products.
  • If the seller wants to set the store pickup option on some specific products then, he can simply choose the option as “Specific Product” from the drop-down menu.

While adding/editing products

Once the seller selects the “Specific Product” option, he/she will get the option to choose (Delivery + Store Pick-up) or Only Store Pick-up or Only Delivery while adding or editing any product.

Thus, the seller can set different options for his/her customers on each product.

Moreover, sellers can configure the labels within the app.

Visibility on Front End

By default, there will be two options visible to the customers on frontend if the seller has not selected the pickup option as “Store Pick-up Only”.

If the customer selects the “Delivery” option, by default the same order process will be applied as per the marketplace app (i.e. Shipping is applied as per the rule).

But if the customer selects the option as “Store Pick-up”, there will not be any Shipping applied on that product i.e. there will be Free Shipping.

And the customer can visit the seller’s store on the given Store Pickup address to collect the ordered product.

If the seller has set the option as “Store Pick-up Only” on his/her panel then the frontend view will be like this as shown in below screenshot.

Now Once the order is placed by the customer and the customer has selected the option to pick up the order then both admin and seller can view the details in Order Listing section of their panel.

 

In this way, you can provide the option to pickup the ordered product to your customers using this feature app.
