We have released several new features into CoreCommerce. Again most of these have come at the request of our customers. We greatly appreciate all of your feedback. If you have any great ideas please share them with us, either by submitting a support ticket or by submitting them in the forum under “Feature Request”.
- Free Shipping coupons are now available. You can offer free shipping coupons to your customers. This feature has been studied online by many experts and has shown to greatly increase customer conversions.
- Overhaul of the real-time shipping and tracking. You can now use real-time package tracking to bring live tracking to your website, when using shipping methods other than real-time shipping. Previously the only way to receive real-time package tracking was you had to use real-time rate quotes. This is not the case anymore. So if you are using sub-total method for shipping and you send packages via UPS, you can click on configure next to real-time shipping carriers to setup just real-time package tracking for UPS. Just a reminder support UPS, FedEx and USPS real-time package tracking.
- Content pages can now be associated with membership groups. This way only certain membership groups like wholesalers could see these specific website pages.
- Store Closed feature now contains a WYISWYG editor for easy editing so you can add your own picture, content and more to the store closed page.
- You can now display the order weight on the checkout confirmation page with standard checkout mode. Just go to the link provided and check the “Display Order Weight” setting.
- If you only ship to a few locations in a specific area, you can now restrict shipping by zip code. This will allow you to guarantee your customers are in your shipping zone before they place an order. This is typically used for companies who sell food, flowers or local items.
- When creating a product or editing a product we added a “Save and Add New” button. This will eliminate some clicks and save time when adding products.
- On the call/email for pricing feature, we now display the SKU on the product detail page.
- If you use product options with pricing, you can now choose to allow prices to display as a range of low to high or just the base price for products with options on the product list page.
Store owners have even more reasons to use CoreCommerce. We now have integrated with ebay to allow you to post your products live on ebay. This will open another sales opportunity for your customers.
Another new feature is being able to receive orders directly to your cell phone with text messaging. Picture this; driving down the road on the July 4th weekend and then you feel a buzz on your hip, ahhh another order. This is what you can do with CoreCommerce.
CoreCommerce is also now integrated with two more payment gateways like Payjunction and Payments Gateway.
We want to say thank you to our customers who always give us a great ideas and suggestions for all of the features listed above.

When Vincent went looking for an e-commerce solution he had troubles finding a good solution.
“I have used omnistarcart but quickly grew out of it and its limitations. I’ve also tried about two dozen carts out there. It’s very confusing and frustrating.”
Vince wanted to stand out among his competitors and required flexible design tools.
“CoreCommerce offered me the flexibility to be able to stand out amongst my competitors with total design integration, premium options and tools.”

Vince like most entrepreneurs work long hours to be successful and requires a shopping cart solution with superior support.
“Being a self-employed I work all hours of the day and night. What won me over was sending in tickets that were answered within hours, even on weekends. I’m driven when I work to have a support team to help me and not slow me down is crucial. CoreCommerce has the best support I’ve seen.”
One major factor in Vince’s decision to use CoreCommerce was the fact he didn’t have to have IT employees or contractors to run the store.
“Without having to worry about my backend, CoreCommerce frees up my time to do what I do best. Concentrate on our customers and our competition.”
The 11 year e-commerce veteran looks forward to many successful years and believes he made the right choice in CoreCommerce.
“For the price and what you receive there is no comparison. Whether it’s your first cart or your 5th cart, CoreCommerce will be the last cart you ever need. I can bet on that.”
There are two types of transactions with an e-commerce solution–“Real-time” or “Off-Line” transactions. With CoreCommerce you can do either.
