Store visibility

Your store has an Active status that controls whether it appears to customers in the marketplace. When your store is active, shoppers can find it through search and category browsing. If you need to temporarily pause your store, contact the marketplace administrator.
Featured stores appear in the Featured Stores section on the marketplace home screen. Contact your marketplace administrator if you want to discuss featuring your store.

Store categories

You can assign categories to your store to help customers discover your products. Featured categories appear prominently on your store page, making it easy for customers to navigate your most important product ranges. To update your store categories, edit your store profile and select from the available category list provided by the marketplace.

Banners

You can add promotional banners to your store page to highlight deals, new arrivals, or featured products. Each banner includes:
