How to Manage General Settings (Mimeo Marketplace)

In the General Settings of your Marketplace, you can customize your individual storefronts:

Name
Directory Name and URL
Default Currency
Tagline
Default View
Google Analytics ID
Turn Marketplace On

Log In to Marketplace

Begin by logging into Mimeo.com. Navigate to your Marketplace Dashboard from the App Switcher.

Select an Individual Storefront

From your Marketplace Dashboard, find the individual storefront you want to customize. Under options, select “edit”.

This will take you directly to the General Settings screen. When you are done making edits, be sure to hit “save and publish” for these changes to take effect.

Marketplace Name

Enter your preferred name.

Directory Name

The Directory Name determines the URL of your Marketplace. If someone already has the link to your Marketplace and you change the Directory Name, they will no longer be able to use that link.

If you are customizing the Directory Name, click the “check availability” button to make sure that URL is available.

Default Currency

Your products will automatically display prices in your default currency. We offer 16 global currency options:

USD – US Dollar
AED – Emirati Dirham
AUD – Australian Dollar
BRL – Brazilian Real
CAD – Canadian Dollar
CNY – Chinese Yuan
EUR – Euro
GBP – British Pound
HKD – Hong Kong Dollar
ILS – Israeli Shekel
INR – Indian Rupee
JPY – Japanese Yen
MXN – Mexican Peso
RUB – Russian Ruble
SGD – Singapore Dollar
ZAR – South African Rand

Add a Tagline

Next, you can add a tagline to your Marketplace.

This is especially powerful if it is an external-facing storefront. Here’s what it looks like on the end-user side.

Default View

Under Default View, you can choose whether your products should display in a list or in a detail view.

This is what the list view looks like on the end-user side:

Google Analytics ID

If you would like to link the Marketplace to your Google Analytics, click the checkbox under Google Analytics ID and add your tracking ID.

(Here are instructions from Google for how to find your Analytics ID:

1. Sign in to your Analytics account.
2. Click Admin.
3. Select an account from the menu in the ACCOUNT column.
4. Select a property from the menu in the PROPERTY column.
5. Under PROPERTY, click Tracking Info > Tracking Code. Your tracking ID is displayed at the top of the page)

Set Your Marketplace to Active

Finally, you can set your Marketplace to Active or Inactive. When you are building out the Marketplace, we recommend keeping it on Inactive. Once you are ready for shoppers to see it, you can select active.

You’ll see a pop-up box asking if you’re really sure the Marketplace is ready to be active. If you’re sure, click OK.
