Product Catalog

Updated Aug 9, 2024

Your product catalog is a shop page that reflects all the available products you have in Simplero (that are set to Listed). This can be added as a page on your site, or as a section on a page on your site.

NOTE! The Product Catalog section is only available on pages with the Legacy Builder. If you’re using a page with the 2.0 Builder, you can read about your options in this help guide.

There are 3 types of products

  1. Listed - this product will display in your catalog. Everyone can get to it.

  2. Unlisted - this product will not display in your catalog, but is still available for purchase. In other words, you will need to give someone the URL to purchase.

  3. Closed - not available for purchase, not listed anywhere.
