Commerce Overview

Capability overview

ArtInStack connects your storefront to Stripe: Digital Products (file email delivery and client portal access via templates), self-fulfilled prints, print-on-demand, and donations each have a home under Products. Template and delivery reference: Digital product templates and delivery.

Fees at a glance: POD print orders include a platform commission plus lab cost settlement so the shared catalog and provider integrations stay funded. Digital products and donations charge 0% platform commission; Stripe card processing is passed through. Details: Connect payments with Stripe, Print-on-demand pricing and margin.

Courses and events: build them in Portal Manager and Events Manager; add a listing under Digital Products when you sell on your storefront. See Courses as a product and Events as a product. Prints from photos: set up your print catalogue and turn on Enable Print Options per portfolio. See Print on Demand.

Fundraising campaigns (goals, story, progress) live under Settings → Campaigns and connect to donation products and page blocks. See Donations and fundraising campaigns. Orders return to the dashboard so you can fulfill and support buyers from one place.

What you'll see

Clear tabs for each product family and a single Stripe connection point. Gated commerce features show upgrade guidance instead of failing silently.

Before you sell live

Commerce requires an eligible plan and completed Stripe onboarding. Finish connect-payments-with-stripe before you announce a shop link.

Donations and tax

Donation products may follow different tax treatment than goods. Confirm reporting with your accountant. For campaign goals, recurring gifts, and Stripe Connect requirements, see Donations and fundraising campaigns.

Verifying your setup
