Merchant Quickstart

This guide covers Business Commerce for registered companies and sole traders. Applications are available for MK, AL, RS and BA. Natural persons use the separate Individual MoR guides. Booking and Rent-a-Car follow distinct workflows.

Use this guide for first-time setup. Follow it in order — each step prepares the next one.

1. Create an organization

The organization is the business account in Kordiva. It connects your plan, team, and stores.

First complete the application and verification process. Use the approved Business identity when creating your organization; it connects your plan, team and stores.

2. Create a store

Set:

store name;
unique subdomain;
MKD, USD, or EUR currency;
basic description;
starting theme.

You do not need a custom domain on day one. You can start with a Kordiva subdomain and connect your own domain later when supported by the plan.

3. Create your first product

Complete one product end to end:

name and description;
price;
primary image;
SKU if you use one;
inventory quantity and tracking;
tax class;
fulfillment type: physical, digital, or deposit;
variants when the product has size, color, or another option.

A simple rule that saves time

Create the product first. Then create a Checkout Link or add the product to the storefront.
