The eShop is a self-contained sales component for dmSwitchboard12, and allows you to create a sales page by copy-and-pasting a few lines of code into your site.
It has been built with eComponents, and allows customers to:
- Add dmSwitchboard12 to their order
- Choose a UK geographic phone number (included in the switchboard starter pack)
- Register their details (or log in if they are already a customer)
- Go to our payment gateway to complete payment
