Camp Shop items can be purchased by parents on the Parent Dashboard when set to be available. Camp Shop purchases are done separately from the Camper Enrollment Process.
To make a purchase on the Parent Dashboard first login to the Parent Dashboard, then click on the "Shop" button on the left navigation bar.
On the Shop Dashboard, click on the blue "Shop for...." button for the camper you wish to make a purchase for.
In the Shop page for each camper, you can see the following:
- Filters - if the camp shop has filters set for items, parents can use the check boxes next to the filters to narrow down what is seen on the page. For more information on filters please see: How to add Shop Locations, Sizes, Colors, Tags, and Statuses
- Camp store items - these items have been added to the Camp Store from the Shop Dashboard on the Admin facing page of Campsite. Camp Shop items will display both when in and out of stock. An out of stock item can still be viewed by a parent, but will a red "out of stock" banner on the item image. For more information on how to add new shop items please see: How to Add a Camp Shop Item
- Cart- once an item is added to the cart it will appear here.
- View Past Orders will show orders that have been purchased in the past for this camper.
The image example above is of an out of stock item that can still be seen on the Parent Dashboard.
When hovering over an item, click on the "view item" button to view the items specific page.
On the items page, you can do the following:
- Use the arrow icons to scroll between images if there is more than one preview image available.
- Choose the items size if available.
- Choose the items color if available.
- Click the "Back to Shop" button to return to the previous page.
- Click the "Add to Cart" button to add the item to the cart to purchase.
When the "Add to Cart" button is clicked, a green pop up banner will appear confirming the action.
The item is now added to the shopping cart where a parent can delete the item, change the quantity of the item in the cart, or select to "Go to Cart" when ready to checkout.
When in the Cart, parents can again choose to remove an item or change the size, color, or quantity of an item before purchasing.
If permitted via your Campsite settings, parents may be allowed to add the cost of the item to a payment schedule that they are already a part of.
If this setting is not activated in this way to allow adding the cost of this item to a payment schedule, they will instead be asked to select a payment method for checkout.
This payment method must be a method that the parent already has on file. If the parent has no payment method currently on file, they will need to add one by clicking on the "Add Credit Card" or "Add Checking Account" buttons.
When parents click "Place Order", they will be prompted one last time to confirm this purchase.
When a purchase is completed, parents will be redirected to the "View Past Orders" page, where they can view the order they've just placed alongside all past orders for this camper.
