How to connect up Cartloom

[XByrne]

I'm using the Commerce Modular Website template.

The 'Add to Cart' buttons are Cartloom widgets.

When I export my website and test-buy using the 'Add to Cart' buttons, the amount defaults to $0.01 for every product.
Also, the products are generically named 'Product 1', 'Product 2', etc.

I'm presuming I have to take some additional steps to set up Cartloom.
Can anyone describe for me how to do that?
What does it cost?

How does it compare with PayPal, with whom I already have an account?

Thanks in advance!

Seamus, the typical approach to these third party widgets is sign up to an account. Use the Xara dummy button as a hook to open the 3p site by clicking the widget > Edit in browser. Create an account. Modify for your button. Copy and save your new button.
It should then populate the design with your values.

You have to remember Xara is adding such widgets with an 'agreement' possibly to get a slice of revenue from new customers.
Way too pricy for my taste.

Probably better to compare with ECWID rather than PayPal.
If PayPal is good enough then use that.

Thanks again, Acorn.

I'm pretty happy with PayPal, but I'll have a look at ECWID.
