Organize products with categories
More than 5 products? Your customers need categories to find what they’re looking for. Here’s how to organize your catalog on PayFacile.
When do you need categories?
More than 5 products? Your customers need categories to find what they’re looking for. Without them, they scroll, get lost, and leave your storefront.
For a catalog of 1–3 products, the default storefront page is usually enough. But once you have 4–5 or more offerings, categories become essential.
Think about categories from the customer’s perspective: "By type" (courses, ebooks, coaching) or "By topic" (marketing, finance, productivity).
Create a category
Go to Products → Categories. Click New category and fill in:
- Name — the title visible to your customers in storefront navigation
- Description (optional) — a short text describing the category’s content
Save. The category appears in the list and is immediately available for product assignment.
Assign products
Open a product in the editor, then select one or more categories in the dedicated field. A single product can belong to multiple categories. This lets you create overlaps: a cooking ebook can appear in both "Ebooks" and "Cooking."
Expected result
Categories display in your storefront’s navigation bar. Your customers can filter products by category in one click. You can reorder categories from the Categories page to control the display order in navigation.
