Administering your MerchantControl shop is easy with our intuitive control panel.

All you need is a web browser and an internet connection and you're ready to go!


Create categories and products with ease

Simple web-based forms within your control panel are all you need to create full-featured categories and products for your shop. Everything is automated so all you need to do is enter the appropriate information about your categories and products and watch your shop come to life. It only takes a few steps to automatically generate a clean and beautiful product description like the one shown below.


Create content with style

Use the built-in WYSIWYG (What You See is What You Get) Editor to create vibrant content pages or product descriptions. You'll be surprised at how easy it is to create and update content in your shop. There is no need to know any programming to create content with our editor but advanced users will be happy to know that you can modify your content using the "code view" to get your page looking exactly the way that you want.


Changing the look of your shop is easy

Changing the look of your shop is as simple as clicking a button. Simply select the template that you prefer and click "Save" to instantly change the look of your shop. We periodically add new templates so that you can choose the one that is best for your business. Remember, you can always modify our templates yourself to get that unique look for your shop or contact us for a quote.


Customizable CSS and HTML

For those of you that aren't afraid of a little coding, MerchantControl makes it easy to access and modify your files directly through your control panel using our built-in file manager. Simply launch the file manager and select the file that you wish to modify. It doesn't end there, you can use the file manager to upload anything from documents, images and videos that you wish to insert into your pages. Remember, the file manager is entirely optional, you'll never need to modify any code or upload any images manually if you do not wish to do so. We've designed MerchantControl to be simple yet full-featured to satisfy the needs of all users from novice to advanced.
