Online Store Builder (WhatsApp Orders, UPI & Payment-Link Checkout)

About the Online Store Builder (WhatsApp Orders, UPI & Payment-Link Checkout)

Turn a product sheet into a store of your own: a home page with search, filters and sorting, a page for every category and every product (pictures, variants with their own prices, stock), and a cart kept in the shopper’s browser with a checkout for name, phone, address, delivery or pickup and a note. Read a sheet of your own (with a column mapping), or the product CSV file of a Shopify or WooCommerce shop; add pictures and they are made smaller (WebP, or JPEG in a browser that cannot write WebP) right here.

When a shopper places an order, it opens WhatsApp or their e-mail with your shop, filled in with the order number, the items, the delivery charge (one charge, by order value or by postcode) and the total, and shows your UPI code and link with the exact amount or a product’s own payment link. If you like, each order is also kept in your own spreadsheet. Every product page gets Product structured data, social preview tags and a sitemap entry, and the footer links your privacy and refund policies.

The store is a folder of files for any web host (up to 2,000 products), or a product grid with a cart to paste into the site you have. MySmartCoPilot hosts nothing of your store, never sees an order and never touches money. Without a pass you can build the whole store and place test orders here; a Premium pass gives the store’s files and the embed code to download or copy.

Common uses

• A home baker, caterer or kitchen taking orders on WhatsApp instead of answering every message.
• A boutique, gift shop or crafts seller with a catalogue in a spreadsheet.
• A shop moving away from a monthly store plan with its Shopify or WooCommerce export.
• A wholesaler or farm selling to regular customers who pay by UPI.

How an order reaches you

The shopper fills the cart on your store; it stays in their own browser. At checkout they give their name, phone and address, choose delivery or pickup, and press Place the order. The store works out the delivery charge and the total and shows the order: a button opens WhatsApp with your number and the whole order filled in (click to chat: the full international number, the message URL-encoded), another opens their e-mail. You confirm the order in the chat and the shopper pays you directly. With the order log on, the order is also added to your own spreadsheet by a script in your own account, which works the total out again with your prices.

Payments straight to you

For rupees, the order shows your UPI code and a link that opens the shopper’s UPI app with your UPI ID, your payee name, the exact amount and the order number in the note (UPI deep-linking parameters; UPI payment parameters). A product can also carry its own payment link (a payment page of your bank or payment provider). The store has no card or login fields, and you check each payment in your bank or UPI app before you send the order.

Found by search engines and shared well

Every page is complete HTML before any script runs. Product pages carry Product structured data with the price, the currency and the stock (an offer range for variants), each page has its own title, description, search-engine address and share tags with the product’s picture, and sitemap.xml lists every page. Pictures you add here are made smaller in your browser (WebP, or JPEG on a white background where the browser cannot write WebP; 1,600 pixels for product pages and 600 for grids).

Your product sheet

A sheet of your own needs a name and a price for each product; it may have a compare-at price, a category, a description, a SKU, stock (yes, no or a number), pictures (web addresses or file names), a payment link and variants (rows with the same name, each with its own variant, price and stock). A Shopify export is read with Shopify’s own columns (product CSV), under their current names or the older ones: URL handle (Handle), Title, Description (Body (HTML)), Type, Product category, Option1–3 name and value, Price (Variant Price), Compare-at price, SKU, the inventory columns, Product image URL (Image Src), Image position and Status. A WooCommerce export is read by its Type, Name, Regular price, Sale price, Categories, Images, Parent and attribute columns.

Your shoppers’ data

Names, phone numbers and addresses go from the shopper straight to you — in WhatsApp, in their e-mail to you, and to your own spreadsheet if you use the order log. MySmartCoPilot never receives them. Say in your privacy policy what you keep and for how long, and delete old orders when you no longer need them.

Limitations

• It takes orders and shows how to pay; it does not take card payments or confirm that a payment arrived.
• Stock is what you set: the store does not count down stock as orders arrive.
• Up to 2,000 products, 100 variants and 10 pictures each. The embed suits a few hundred products best, because it carries the whole catalogue.
• UPI is for rupees only. If the UPI link does not open the shopper’s app on their phone, the QR code and your UPI ID beside it still work.
• Pictures you add here stay in this browser; save the project file to keep them, or to move the store to another computer.

Privacy

Your products, settings and pictures are kept in this browser (and in project files you save yourself) and are never uploaded. Test orders in the live preview exist only in this page.
