Welcome to Viluxiori. We’re excited to have you join our community of boutique owners. After registering, you will land on the Viluxiori Dashboard, which is the hub of your store. Before you dive in, we recommend taking a few moments to read through this instruction manual.
Before adding products, it’s important to set up your boutique. This includes adding your boutique’s name, logo, and a cover photo that represents your brand. You can also add a description of your boutique and its story, as well as contact information and links to your social media profiles. Setting up your boutique not only adds credibility to your store but also helps customers get to know your brand and what you stand for.
Once you’ve set up your boutique, it’s time to add your products. This is where you’ll showcase your unique offerings and make sales. You can add product images, descriptions, pricing, and inventory information.
Finally, it’s important to manage your boutique regularly. This includes updating your product information, keeping track of inventory, fulfilling orders, and engaging with customers. You can also view sales reports, track analytics, and make adjustments to your store settings as needed.
By following these three steps, you’ll be well on your way to setting up a successful boutique on Viluxiori. Don’t hesitate to explore your dashboard and take advantage of all the features we have to offer.
As the first step towards creating your brand image on Viluxiori, you should head to the settings page and start personalizing your boutique. To get to the settings page, you can simply click on “Settings” or “Settings > Boutique” from the left panel.
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to personalize your boutique settings:
Remember, for any new information you add to your settings, you need to click on the “Update Settings” button to reflect these changes on your boutique page. By personalizing your boutique settings, you will make it easier for customers to find your boutique and get to know your brand. So take your time to personalize your boutique and make it stand out on Viluxiori!
In order to receive payouts for your sales, it is necessary for boutiques to connect a Stripe account. Stripe is a widely recognized and trusted payment processing platform that enables secure and convenient online transactions. To connect a Stripe account, from the boutique dashboard go to “Settings -> Payment”, and then click the “Payment Methods” dropdown, and select “Direct to Stripe”, and you’ll be redirected to Stripe.com where you can either log into an existing Stripe account, or go through the guided process of setting one up. Earnings from your orders will be automatically distributed to your Bank account via Stripe once your account is connected.
The shipping section of your boutique settings is perhaps the most complex, but one of the most crucial. In it, you will configure:
To start, lets set up your Shipping Policy by clicking edit shipping policy on the top right. This is simply a place for you to describe in detail how you typically handle your shipping process, and you must also select a processing time, to indicate to your customers how long you usually take to ship a product. This can be override on a per-product basis.
Now lets handle the zones and shipping methods. Click “back to Zone List” to return to the previous screen. Here you can see the list of geographical zones you can opt into shipping to. Let’s create a shipping method for the United States. Click on “United States” and you’ll be presented with this screen:
If you’d like to limit shipping further within this zone, you select only the states or provinces from the “Select States/Provinces” and “Limit ZIP/postcodes” options you’d like to ship to. If you want to ship to all States/Provinces and zip/postal codes, leave these blank as-is.
Now, let’s add a shipping method to this zone by clicking “Add Shipping Method.” You’ll be presented with this popup:
The only options for a shipping method are “Flat Rate”, “Local Pickup”, and “Free Shipping.” Let’s add a flat rate shipping method. You will see your new shipping method in the list for this shipping zone. Hover over the shipping method in the list and click “edit”:
You’ll now be present with the shipping method editor popup.
You can repeat this process to add multiple shipping methods to a shipping zone. For instance, you might want to offer an “Expedited Shipping” method, in which you charge more, but ship faster.
The social profile section is an important aspect of setting up a boutique on Viluxiori, as it enables boutiques to showcase their brand and connect with customers through various social media channels. By adding links to their Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and website, boutiques can easily direct customers to their other online platforms and increase their overall visibility. These links will appear on the boutique’s page, allowing customers to easily access and explore their social media presence. It’s important for boutiques to make sure their social profiles are up-to-date and active, as this can help build trust with potential customers and establish their brand’s online presence. By leveraging the power of social media, boutiques can drive traffic to their Viluxiori store and ultimately increase sales.
To add links to social profiles, boutiques can simply navigate to “Settings” > “Social Profile” and enter the corresponding URLs.
When setting up a store on Viluxiori, it’s important to keep in mind the Returns section. This is where you can select your preferred return policy for your boutique and products. You have two options to choose from – a “limited” return policy, and “no returns.” If you select limited, you will have to select the number of days from purchase you will allow customers to submit a return request. The return policy that you choose here will be displayed on your boutique page and all your products by default. However, if you have a specific product that requires a different return policy, you can always override the default policy when creating that product.
In addition to selecting your preferred return policy, there’s also a space for you to write a more detailed description about your returns policy. This can be helpful for customers who may have questions about your policy or want to understand it better before making a purchase. Your returns policy description will be displayed on your boutique page along with your chosen return policy, so it’s important to provide a clear and concise explanation of your policy. By carefully considering and setting up your Return Policy, you can ensure that your boutique is fully prepared to handle returns and provide excellent customer service.

When done right, SEO can drive more traffic to your store and improve your visibility in search engines, making it easier for customers to find your products. To help you do this, we’ve included a dedicated section for Store SEO in your store settings. Let’s go through each field to understand its importance:
In summary, optimizing your store’s SEO is crucial to drive traffic and increase visibility. By filling out the Store SEO section with relevant and descriptive titles, descriptions, and images, you can improve your store’s chances of appearing in search results and social media shares.
