Shop website
Build and publish your shop's own website from your stock — layout, colours, photos, story, opening hours and which products show — with a live preview and a free address.
Website (/app/website) — Your shop online, built from your stock. Only you can see it until you publish. Every shop gets a website at a free address, <your-shop>.kapdastock.com, built from the products already in Kapda Stock.
The site shows your shop, your categories and your products with prices (or not, as you choose), live In stock / Few left / Out of stock labels, and buttons to WhatsApp, call or get directions. There is no online payment: visitors make a list and send it to you, and you sell in person. It never shows purchase prices, stock quantities, customers or anything else from inside your workspace.
