Account and other ShopWired settings
ShopWired offers a wide range of features and settings that you can modify within your ShopWired account. This guide does not list all of the features and settings available to you, but only those that are crucial for you to understand when you first start using ShopWired.
VAT registration
If your business is registered for VAT, you should select this on the VAT settings page of your ShopWired account before you start to create products.
You should also choose whether you are entering prices inclusive or exclusive of the VAT element of the price, as this setting affects the calculation and display of prices on your website.
The other settings related to VAT can be configured later.
Product settings
Settings related to products are all displayed on a single page within your ShopWired account. There are numerous settings you can configure relating to products and product data. Some of these settings affect significant aspects of your ShopWired account (such as how many categories you can assign a product to).
