From creating products and collecting payments to managing orders, customers, inventory, discounts, and store settings, Grigora gives you everything you need to set up and manage your store without complexity.
Accessing Commerce in Grigora
Open your Grigora dashboard and select Commerce from the left sidebar. This opens the Commerce dashboard, where you can access all the tools required to manage your store.
The Commerce section includes the following areas:
Products: Create and manage the products you want to sell.
Collections: Group related products into categories for easier browsing and storefront organization.
Inventory: Manage product and variant stock.
Orders: View and manage orders received through your configured checkout providers.
Customers: View buyer profiles created through successful purchases.
Discounts: Create and manage coupon codes for your customers.
Settings: Configure store details, payments, shipping, taxes, invoices, media, SEO, appearance, and webhooks.
Understanding the Commerce Dashboard
When Commerce has not been fully configured yet, the dashboard provides a starting point for setting up your store.
The main section highlights Start Selling From Your Website, along with options to:
Start Commerce to begin setting up your store.
Generate Sample Product to create sample products and explore Commerce.
The dashboard also highlights three key areas of Commerce:
Create Products
Create products that you can sell through your website, including digital products, services, memberships, or physical goods.
Collect Payments
Connect supported checkout providers so customers can make payments for your products.
Manage Orders
Track customer purchases and manage order-related information after payments are received.
Creating Your First Commerce Product
To begin selling, open Products under the Commerce section and create a new product.
Grigora provides a guided product creation process divided into four steps:
Describe → Delivery → Checkout → Polish
Each step handles a different part of setting up your product, making it easier to complete the required information before publishing.
Setting Up Your Product Details
In the Describe step, provide the basic information about what you are selling.
You can configure:
Product Name: Enter the name customers will see.
Product Promise: Explain what the buyer gets, who it is for, and why it matters.
Product Type: Select the appropriate product type.
Collections: Assign the product to an existing collection or create a new collection.
Grigora also provides an Improve with AI option that can help refine your product name or description.
Choosing Product Delivery
The Delivery step lets you configure pricing, product media, and how customers receive the product.
You can configure:
Product price
Currency
Product photos and videos
Digital delivery
Physical delivery
For digital products, you can upload the file customers will receive after checkout. Grigora supports files such as PDF, ZIP, and MP4, with the upload size shown in the product setup interface.
For physical products, you can configure the product for shipping and collect the customer's delivery address during checkout.
Connecting a Payment Provider
The Checkout step allows you to connect a payment provider to your product.
Grigora Commerce supports:
Stripe
Razorpay
PayPal
Paddle
You can select a configured provider or set up a provider when creating the product. This step can also be skipped and configured later from Commerce settings.
Polishing and Publishing Your Product
The final Polish step lets you prepare the product page before publishing.
You can add:
Highlights to explain what buyers receive.
FAQs to answer common buyer questions.
SEO title for search engines.
Search visibility settings.

You can also create a collection directly while creating a product, allowing you to organize products without leaving the product creation workflow.

Once products that require inventory are created, their stock information can appear here.
Inventory is especially useful when managing physical products or products with different variants and stock quantities.
Managing Orders and Customers
The Orders section provides a central place to view purchases received through your configured checkout providers.
The Customers section contains buyer profiles created after successful purchases and checkout events.
Together, these sections make it easier to track purchases and understand who is buying from your store.

You can configure options such as:
