See more info Up sell/Cross-Selling FeatureAn extremely powerful
marketing tool, PDG Shopping Cart's ability to suggestively
sell alternate and complementary products; e.g. if a
customer selects the "standard" version of a product, you
can recommend that they also consider the "pro" version or
if your customer chooses a pair of pants, you can suggest
that they also consider a belt and socks. Simply specify
related product skus and optional text in a product’s
definition in your Merchant Administrator, and PDG Shopping
Cart will up-sell or recommend related products to your
customers automatically. Tiered Pricing CategoriesNow, you can offer
different price points for various users, such as retail and
wholesale customers. You can set flat percentage discounts
for all items within your Web store, with the option of
adjusting discounts for individual items. Customers are
prompted to enter a discount code during the checkout
process to receive their discount. Powerful Product SearchUsers may search for
products based on information you provide for each
individual product. Cart can search the product's name,
keywords field, and up to 10 "user defined" fields. In
addition to standard keyword searches, Cart supports Boolean
operators (AND, OR and NOT), quoted strings, and allows for
search within a specific product category and within a
specific price range (greater than, less than, or equal to a
particular price or within a specified range). PDG Shopping Cart's Store
Builder feature is for merchants who want a quick and
maintenance-free integration that will not require changes
to Web pages as products are added and removed from their
store. You can get your web store up and running by
dynamically generating web store pages based upon product
category. The StoreBuilder generates customized store pages
"on the fly", each designed to conform with the
look-and-feel of your web site. In addition to your product
catalog, you an also have pages with contact information and
any other information you would like. Store Builder SkinsNow you can quickly
downloads or create "Skins", which are packages that can
contain templates, graphical buttons, and/or style sheets.
With Skins, you can quickly change the entire look and
layout of your webstore. Once installed, you can change
between Skins with a single click. Skins are the perfect
answer for your webstore if you want to have a standard
layout, and yet also offer special themed layouts for
specific holidays. User Defined FieldsWith thousands of
merchants utilizing PDG Shopping Cart, we understand that
many merchants have the need to store information for
products that may be unique to their specific industry. If
you have additional information that should be displayed for
your products, such as a manufacturer name, compatible
models, other suggested products, etc., you determine what
information is stored within each user defined field (total
of 10 available) and where the information is displayed
during the transaction. As an added benefit, these fields
are also searchable. Multiple Product Add
Multiple Option AddFor products with numerous
options, users may add quantities of several variations from
a single-page- without having to click back to the product
each time; e.g., your customer could order two of the same
shirts in both yellow and red without having to add them
individually to the cart. Shared OptionsCart allows merchants to
apply universal options for a set of products to prevent
repetitive data entry. For products that have simliar
options, with only a few minor changes, the option can be
copied to all products so that only the fields that change
require entry. For example, you may have a range of shoe
sizes that you offer, with some products not available in
every size. This feature prevents you from having to create
a new set of options for each individual product. Compatibility with the UPS OnLine® Tools and USPS Web Tools PDG Software is a designated UPS OnLine®
Tools Product Solution Provider. All PDG Software products
include UPS OnLine® Tracking and UPS OnLine® Rates & Service

entered into your existing Worldship process. Discounting with OptionsUsers may specify whether
Pricing Category and Item Quantity percentage discounts are
calculated based on the default item price or price with
selected options. ZonesCart allows merchants to
set up multiple tax rules to accommodate customers in
numerous jurisdictions (counties, city, ZIP code,
state/province, and country). Users may specify the tax
percentage, a taxable price for each product, the sales tax
label (e.g. "Georgia Sales Tax"), and whether shipping and
handling charges should be taxed to accommodate tax
requirements that may vary from state to state. IP Address TrackingCart automatically logs the unique IP
address of each and every order placed with your Web store.
This information is included in the text and exportable
comma-delimited order log files. Security FeaturesPDG Shopping Cart is fully
compatible with SSL (FREE SSL with our
hosting)services offered by providers such as VeriSign, Thawte, GeoTrust, InstantSSL, and others.
Utililzing an SSL certificate, whether issued to your site
or offered through your hosting provider, ensures that all
sensitive information entered by your customers and
retrieved by you, is encrypted to prevent unauthorized
access while the information is transmitted. In addition,
all PDG Software products are compatible with GPG encryption
software, so that your email notifications and order log
files are encrypted immediately as orders are placed. Users
can then use commercial PGP applications to decrypt the
information for processing. Please click here to access
documentation that explains this functionality. Also, for
merchants utilzing an online payment service who do not
require sensitive data such as credit card numbers in their
log files, Cart allows you to exclude all such information
from your e-mail notices and log files with a single click. Importing and Exporting Product Information You can import and/or
export product information directly from the Merchant
Administrator. When importing, you can choose to completely
update your current product database, just import new
products, or modify existing product definitions. Affiliate TrackingCart includes built in
affiliate tracking capabilities that will notify you of
where a customer's order originated. When a customer is
directed to your Web store by clicking a link on an
affiliate's site, Cart tracks that customer from start to
finish and will log information indicating which affiliate
referred the customer to your site. Cart is also compatible
with numerous enhanced affiliate services that will
calculate affiliate commissions, allow affiliate to log in
and view their referral history, and automate the process of
signing up affiliates DiscountingMerchants can run sales
and promotions just like regular retail stores. Cart allows
you to establish quantity discounts for each product,
subtotal discounts based on the value of items in the user's
basket at checkout, discounts based on users providing a
discount code, or any combination of these three options. You can now create
accounts that can be used to access the Merchant
Administrator. You can decide what access each account is
granted. For example, you can create an account for your
Merchant Administrator that can add and modify product
information, but cannot access order information. Compatibility with the UPS OnLine® Tools and USPS Web ToolsPDG Software is a
designated UPS OnLine® Tools Product Solution Provider. All
PDG Software products include UPS OnLine® Tracking and UPS
OnLine® Rates & Service Selection Tools. Cart can be set up

customers with real-time shipping costs for all shipping
services offered by UPS. Your customers can also track their
shipments directly from your Web site or from the UPS Web
site. IP Blacklist

flexibility, PDG Shopping Cart can log orders in an XML
format. This allows you to import those orders into any
other third party application that can read XML files. Minimums and Maximums per ProductYou can specify a minimum
or maximum quantity allowed for purchase of an item, on a
per item basis. If you have a promotional special, use this
feature to limit purchase of a that item to a certain number
of units. Real-Time Price RecalculationDo you have products whose
prices change based on the options selected by your
customers? If so, Cart can display the price change in
real-time, as soon as the option is chosen. For example, if
you sell computer systems and the user first selects the
"base" system, Cart will immediately update the price shown
on the screen as the user selects hard drive, memory, and
other options. Database Import/Export ToolThe PDG External Database
Import/Export Manager allows you to maintain your list of
available products in an offline database/spreadsheet
application. The export feature allows you to export an
existing PDG product database into another
database/spreadsheet application for future updates. This
tool is especially useful if you have an existing database
that you would like to add to the Shopping Cart or if you
will be maintaining a large database consisting of hundreds
or thousands of products.**** Softgoods and Digital File DownloadsDo you sell downloadable
electronic files such as documentation, software, or music
files? Do you need to send transaction data to your own
script for generating licenses after completion of an order?

and how many times the customer may download. For merchants

number, etc.) to your own custom script. The generated
license key is then displayed on the final page of the
transaction. Frequent Shopper Points TrackingJust like airlines reward

tax and shipping rules, in addition to setting these rules
up by country, state, province, and postal code. You define
