Sweede is our own platform for both storefront and delivery IndicaOnline accounts. It is seamlessly integrated with IndicaOnline and does not require installing any plug-ins. Your whole inventory with pricing will be in sync with your Sweede online store.Activating Sweede for one of your offices in IndicaOnline is easy and effortless. Once you submit a copy of your valid Cannabis Business License, we will activate your account and you will have an online store created on sweede.io. It will showcase your shop menu, business and delivery hours, your location as well as your delivery zones.  The Sweede link for your online store contains the business name of the office and its location that you specified within your IndicaOnline account. Changing any of them will result in changing the actual Sweede link.ContentsHow to set up a Sweede PageEnable Loyalty ProgramStart accepting ordersPublish your products on Sweede  How to set up a Sweede pageThere is a couple of settings you need to toggle within your IndicaOnline account before receiving first orders from your customers on Sweede. Enable Loyalty ProgramIf you would like your customers to use a special loyalty program, you can enable the Sweede Loyalty Program for them to get Sweede credits to use at checkout.To set this up in your IndicaOnlinwe web:Navigate to the Config tab on the left-hand side of the screen, click Offices & Storages on top of the Config menu and select the Office you want to edit. Go to Marketplace Settings, click the Loyalty Program tab, and hit the Enable The Program button. Set a percentage that your customers will receive as cashback in the Enable the Program pop-up and submit the request to IndicaOnline for approval.

Otherwise, your Sweede store will simply show your inventory and deals, but the Add to Cart button will not be available for your customers. Select your Payment Methods and fill out the courier phone number under Order Notifications and Customer Support number, if required.  Currently, you are only notified after a new order has been placed on Sweede. You are not notified if the order status has been changed. Make sure to switch the Allow Delivery and Allow Pickup toggles to YES, depending on your business type. You can further customize your Sweede online store page by adding your pickup and delivery shipping methods.   To learn how to create delivery zones using Google maps, please refer to our article here.  This article here will guide you through the process of setting up your shipping methods.Under the General Info tab you may also want to upload your logo to show on your Sweede page.

Medical patients will also need to upload their recommendations. Each of your customers will get a $5 credit after verifying their email addresses. $10 referral credits are up for grabs both for referrers and referrals once a referral completes their first order. Your customers will be able to place pickup as well as delivery orders directly from your Sweede website. You have the option to create Sweede accounts for your existing patients in the IndicaOnline account.
