Clients can access your store and make purchases using the Client Web App or Achieve Client App. Items clients can purchase include products, Purchase Options, events, and gift cards.

Caution: Purchase Options that include the following keywords in their names or descriptions won’t be visible in your store on the Achieve Client App for iOS:

  • Virtual

  • Video

  • On Demand

Key tips before you begin

  • Users who sign in to the Client Web App as guests, can only purchase the items made available to them in your store settings, and can only complete a purchase if the virtual terminal or ACH payment methods have been enabled.

  • Clients can’t select ACH as a payment method during online checkout. Only staff members can process a client’s transaction using the default ACH payment method. A custom ACH payment method must be set up to allow clients to use their ACH account.

  • An event can only be bought in the store if the appropriate purchase rules have been set up for that event.

  • If you increase the quantity of an event purchase, you will only be booked into that event once. However, you can ask a staff member to transfer your additional event purchases to other clients, such as friends and relatives, and book them into that event.

  • If the message Please contact the studio to make a purchase is displayed when clients try to add items to their cart, the business does not have merchant processing set up. Clients will have to make their purchases directly from the business.

  • Only one gift card can be used at checkout. If you want to make a purchase from the store using multiple gift cards, you must first redeem each gift card to your account balance. You can then use your account balance as a payment method when completing the purchase.
