FAQs

Does the course use real payment gateways?

Payment integration is practised in test or sandbox modes so no real money is involved. Going live requires the store owner's own merchant account and agreement with the provider.

Is Shopify covered?

The course focuses on WooCommerce and a custom project to teach underlying concepts. Hosted platforms are discussed for comparison.

Do I need to know programming?

Basic HTML and CSS are enough for the WooCommerce parts. The custom cart module uses JavaScript, which is explained step by step.
