The peer-to-peer store lets you sell merchandise and other items related to your campaign. The Store Settings area is where you'll configure settings related to your storefront and is a good place to start!

General Information
Require phone number for purchases:
You can configure your campaign to only offer a storefront option, which means that you could have folks accessing your campaign strictly to purchase something. In those cases, if you'd like to capture their phone number, you can require it with this toggle.
Keep store open if campaign is closed:
This will allow people to make store purchases even after the campaign has ended and registrations and donations are no longer being accepted.
If you don't wish to keep the store open once the campaign status has been changed to closed, your store will be closed as well. When supporters try to visit your store, instead of your products, they'll see a message displayed indicating the store is closed.
Charge Tax on Purchases:
If applicable, you’ll also be able to set a tax rate on your purchases. This is a flat rate and cannot vary by product or category. To do this, enable the Charge Tax on Purchases toggle and enter the rate in the resulting field.
Shipping Information
If you want to be able to charge shipping on the items in your store, use the toggle to enable the Offer Shipping for Purchases option. Then click Add Shipping Option.
You’ll see a pop-up window that looks like this:
First, enter a Name for your shipping option. When someone buys something from your store and decides to have their purchase shipped to them, they’ll see the names of their options when they check out. Next, enter a Method. This is where you’ll add a description of the shipping method. Last, enter the Cost associated with your shipping option before clicking Add.
You can always edit or delete your shipping options at any time.
Please note: You're responsible for fulfilling orders and the physical shipment of your merchandise. Qgiv does not fulfill orders or ship items. A shipping rate is a flat fee applied to an entire order, so keep in mind that the rate will be the same for an order of 50 t-shirts as it is for an order of one t-shirt.
Delivery Information
In the Delivery Information field, you can enter delivery information that will be displayed on the confirmation page after a successful purchase is completed. Anything that you may need to communicate to the folks purchasing items from your store can be listed here.
You'll see below that the delivery information is located directly above the Your Order summary.
