Publishing puts your site on the internet, so anyone with the link can visit and browse it. Until you publish, your work stays private to your project. After you publish, your latest changes stay in draft until you publish again. To let customers buy, set up a checkout provider too (see Accepting orders).
1

Review your store

Open the Website Builder and click through your pages to confirm the content, images, and prices are right.
2

Publish

Ask Replo to publish, or use the publish action in the Website Builder. Replo shows the pages that will go live, then builds and deploys your store.
3

Get your link

Your store goes live on a replosites.com subdomain, like your-site.replosites.com. Copy the link to share it.

Publish updates

When you make changes later, publish again to push them live. Nothing you change goes public until you do.
Publishing runs through a few steps and then your store is live at its address.

What your customers see

A published site is a normal website. Customers visit the link and browse your pages, and once you have set up checkout, they buy right on your site. They never see the Replo workspace or know the site was built by Replo.

Accepting orders

Publishing makes your site live, but taking payments needs a checkout provider. You have two options:
  • Replo checkout, powered by Stripe, with no Shopify required. Finish Stripe setup and your site can take orders directly.
  • Shopify, if you already sell there. Connect your store and checkout runs through Shopify.
Until you set one up, checkout stays off and your buy buttons will not complete a purchase. You can connect a provider at any time and publish again. Browsing, product pages, and the rest of your site work either way. See Integrations to connect a provider and Settings to choose which one powers checkout. To set up Replo checkout, open Integrations and connect Replo Products. From there, finish the Stripe onboarding to start taking payments. Replo partners with Stripe, so you either reuse an existing Stripe account or create a new one, then agree and continue.

FAQ

No. Changes stay in draft until you publish again, so you can keep working without affecting your live store.
Yes. By default you publish to a Replo subdomain, and you can connect your own domain. See Custom domains.
