MIVA Merchant Fast Track

KEY FEATURES & BENEFITS

MIVA Merchant Fast Track’s step-by-step administration panel makes it easy to create and manage a successful online business.

Easy-to-Use Administration Tools

With MIVA Merchant Fast Track, creating and managing your online storefront couldn’t be easier. With a secure log-in, access the intuitive, web-based admin interface from anywhere in the world. Our software walks you through five simple steps to build, stock, setup, run and market your store.

Powerful Store Design Tools

MIVA Merchant Fast Track provides easy-to-use controls to design your online store. Use the built-in store template, and modify or add pages to suit your specific business needs.

Simple 'Point + Click' controls allow you to specify fonts, colors, button labels, navigation bar settings, product layouts, and more. MIVA Merchant Fast Track also provides access to the HEAD tag to assist in search engine optimization.

Feel free to get creative. Version history tracking records and our version recall feature enable you to experiment with your look and create alternate versions, without risk.

Catalog Management

MIVA Merchant Fast Track lets you build a substantial catalog with up to 100 products in five categories. You can also quickly assign a product to multiple categories

Enter product descriptions as plain text, or enhance them with HTML. Assign thumbnail and full-size images to make your products more enticing. Product attributes can be assigned to define product characteristics, with the ability to add additional prices or weight with each attribute option. Multiple attribute display types include drop-down boxes, radio buttons and text fields.

Inventory Tracking and Product Merchandising

Carefully manage your inventory and receive automatic notifications when an item is low or out of stock. Display customized messages telling your customers if an item is running low or how many are left. You can even hide out of stock products from your shoppers.

With our highly effective upsale feature, suggest a product at checkout based on the order total, or on specific products in the order. Seal the deal with special discounts and drive revenues with minimum order amounts or quantities. If not met, your shoppers will be asked to add more to their basket.

Order Processing and Customer Management

MIVA Merchant Fast Track includes a detailed order management system. Monitor your new orders and process credit right from within the admin interface. To ensure secure transactions, encrypt sensitive payment details on each order. Your customer's payment information is locked with a secret password that you create to help prevent stolen data.

Send confirming e-mail messages when customers place orders. You can also receive your own e-mail notifications when new orders are received. Notification emails can also be copied to a third party for drop-shipping or other uses. With the customer management system in MIVA Merchant Fast Track your customers can create accounts, providing easy access to their account details and addresses.
