Ricochet Webstore offers a great way to reach new customers and consignors, showcase your products and expand the presence of your business.


! IMPORTANT !

Ricochet Webstore requires that you have/purchase your own domain URL, preferably through GoDaddy or Google Domains. Then, it is just a nominal fee to maintain the subscription. *This is billed separately from your POS Platform subscription.

If you have an existing website you will need to decide how you will connect your domain to Ricochet:

  • Full domain transfer - this is where you redesign the site fully inside of Ricochet and all traffic goes to your direct URL. We recommend a full domain transfer for the best customer experience.

  • Sub domain - this is adding something like "shop." to your domain, such as "shop.yourdomain.com". This becomes an extension of your main domain so when you link a shop button your customers are redirected to the Ricochet site for shopping.

If you're unsure, we're happy to discuss these options with you.
