In this guide, you will learn how Hype's Single-Page Checkout process works for people visiting your page, and how to set up checkout options in dashboard to best fit your needs as a creator and entrepreneur.
How to Create Monetization Blocks
In order for a visitor on your site to be able to checkout, you will need to create a block for your Product, Donation, or Pass.
Start by navigating to the Page icon in dashboard:
Then, under the Blocks tab, click the button on the bottom that says + Add block:
This will give you a menu of different types of blocks you can add to your page. The three types of monetization blocks you can add are Subscription, Donation, or Pass:
Subscription, Donation, and Pass blocks will link to the Subscription, Donation Boxes, and Pass Products that you've already created in the Products tab. When you see the Product you would like to add in the block, select it, and then click Done at the bottom:
Once added, you will see the new block in the preview to the right side of the screen:
Once you've added the desired Subscription, Donation, and Pass blocks (or any combination of these), you will be able to see and change their order. This can be done by clicking and dragging the 6 dot icon next to each block item on the left hand side of the screen:
After you click Save changes on the upper right hand side of the screen, you will be able to see these new blocks reflected on your page.
Checking Out
A visitor to your site will see and be able to interact with the blocks on your page in the order you've arranged them.
By clicking Subscribe, Donate, or Buy Pass, they will be brought to a checkout screen that will show an Order Summary with the amount due.
From this screen they will also enter their Contact info and any Additional info required:
Next, they will select which Newsletters they would like to receive (if applicable) before clicking Pay.
**Note: customizing what contact information and additional information you would like to capture (as well as newsletter selection) can be done by editing the Sign Up block in dashboard:
Visitors will be able to checkout by adding their credit card in the final step:
