Getting Started

Last updated: May 2026

New here? This guide covers the essentials. Once you've got your store live, explore the vertical-specific guides in the sidebar.

1. Create your account

Head to /trial and fill in your details. Choose the vertical that best matches your business — you can add more later.

Your admin panel will be ready in under 60 seconds at your-store.qwikr.store/admin.

2. Choose your vertical

Qwikr supports four business types. You can enable them in Settings → Verticals.

3. Connect Stripe

All payment processing goes through Stripe. You'll need a Stripe account (free to create).

  1. Go to Settings → Payments in your admin
  2. Click Connect with Stripe
  3. Authorise Qwikr in the Stripe OAuth flow
  4. Set your currency and tax rates
Test mode is enabled by default. Toggle to live mode in Settings → Payments when you're ready to accept real payments.

4. Add your products or menu

For ecommerce: go to Products → New product. Add a name, price, stock level, and images.

For restaurant: go to Menu → Categories, create your categories, then add items under each.

You can also import from CSV or migrate from Shopify / WooCommerce via Settings → Import.

5. Go live

When you're ready to start accepting real orders:

  1. Switch Stripe to live mode (Settings → Payments)
  2. Toggle Store active in Settings → General
  3. Share your storefront URL with customers
