We’ve added the option to sell virtually anything on any Duda site, using new product types your client can choose from, right in the Duda store. From selling services to event tickets, gift vouchers, digital files, and accepting donations, you can now help clients monetize their expertise. Turn their static or brochure-style Duda sites into transactional ones that accept online payments from visitors, regardless of clients' industry or offered service. 

Introduce clients to a revenue stream they didn’t know existed

Many SMBs assume that selling online is only for retailers, but that’s no longer the case. With Duda’s new product types, you can leverage the platform’s native eCommerce capability to help your clients accept online payments for anything they currently sell or get paid for offline.

Some examples include:

• 
  Spas selling gift vouchers and treatment sessions online
• Professionals selling their classes and courses
• Service providers selling their carpet cleaning, fitness training or other service online
• NGO and faith based sites accepting online donations
• Organizations selling event tickets or paid sponsorships
• Other professionals and content creators selling content and files online

And the list goes on - the possibilities are endless. Your clients only stand to gain more money and growth by jumping on the transactional site wagon. Now, with product types, you can easily make it happen for them, and up your site building pricing accordingly.

Whether you’d like to add the transactional capability to a new or an existing client site, it’s easy to do with Duda’s new product types in the store. Here’s how:

1. 
   Click the Sell Online option on the editor’s left panel.
2. Hit the Start for Free button. This will add the demo store to your site so you can see what selling something online looks like.*
3. In the store’s management panel, choose Manage products.
4. Next, click the Add a Product button on the top-right and you’ll see a list of the available product types (Physical, Digital, Service and Donation). Pick the one that best fits your client’s business and set it up.
5. Connect a payment gateway to allow accepting online payments for whatever your client is selling.

*The demo store is a good way to get a preview of the transactional capabilities on a site. You can use it to give clients a taste of what their site can become, and the revenue potential they stand to gain.
