  Mercado is a fully functional marketplace website template that can support our Merchant and Caterer applications. It has email, cart and payment integration. Payments are processed through PayPal as they are independent of any financial institution and will accept payments from bank accounts or credit cards from PayPal members or not. But if you wish, you can modify the template to integrate with your own financial institution's payment portal. A detailed setup guide is provided with the template so you can make the basic modifications for your own setup. |

Mercado is a fully functional template, not just a pretty front-end. The home page gives a decent introduction to your business and products, and allows for the showcasing of various special offers. It can send emails back to you; you will be required to define the Email server, Email address and password to use. |
|
Mercado can display your products showing a description and pricing. An image of the product can also be displayed. Orders can be made from this product listing and the quantity of each product can then be recorded. |

Once ordering has been completed, Mercado displays the shopping cart which can be review and payment made. Please Note: You will need to obtain a Google's Recaptcha API key which can be obtained from Google at no cost. |
|
As mentioned above, the template allows for payment through PayPal. An email with the order is sent back to you and one with the receipt sent to the client. Please Note: if you use the PayPal interface provided, you will be required to setup a PayPal business account and modify the template with either your business id or the Email address defined in PayPal. |
