You can easily insert a direct link into your Tentary shop to redirect customers to an external page. In this article, we’ll show you how.
Note: If you want to sell a link/access, check out this article instead. The product type Direct Link redirects customers directly to the external page you specify, without requiring payment.
Create a Product
To create a new product, navigate to the Products page. Then click on + New Product. A pop-up will appear where you can select the product type Direct Link. This product type is fixed and cannot be changed later.
Settings
For your direct link, you can add a title, a preview image, and the link itself, as well as assign a price and a discount price.
Title
Choose a suitable name for your direct link that clearly conveys to your customers where the link leads. A precise and appealing description increases the likelihood of your link being clicked.
Preview Image
First impressions are often visual. Choose attractive and relevant images for your direct link.
To upload images, you can either drag and drop them into the Preview Image box or click the Upload Images button.
Note: The supported image formats are JPG, PNG, WEBP, GIF.
In the latter case, the menu of your computer or smartphone will open to select images for upload. Select one or more images and confirm the upload. You can put the uploaded images in your desired order by holding and dragging them.
Recommendation: If you’re looking for free images to use and edit for your product, we recommend Unsplash and Pixabay.
Link
Add the URL of the webpage you want to redirect your customers to.
Price
Even though this is a direct link that you’re not selling through Tentary, you can assign a price. This can be useful if you’re linking to an external online shop and want to display the price to your customers beforehand.
Discount Price
Use the discount price to indicate a reduced price.
Note: The discount price must be lower than the current price for it to be displayed.
Save
Click Save to save your content or changes.
Note: Your direct link will not automatically be published in your shop. To do so, you must set the product status to Live and then save it again. More information can be found in the article Creating, Saving, and Publishing a New Product.
