Yes, you can. pagebloom has a very powerful and easy to use product catalog editor that allows you to set up a large variety of different types of products:

Each person or business who signs up to pagebloom gets a free 'pagebloom account'. This avoids the need for each business to set up and manage their own payment gateway facility.

Each pagebloom account initially has a balance of zero but whenever customers purchase from your website your business account's balance increases. You can draw down the funds or top them up whenever you like. Users can make purchases on pagebloom hosted online stores using their own pagebloom account or they can purchase directly from their credit card. Typically credit card purchases will draw more transaction fees from the purchase than a purchase from a pagebloom account so it's actually financially beneficial if your customers purchase using their pagebloom account but direct credit card purchases are completely supported by the system.

Anyone can 'top up' or 'drawn down' from their pagebloom account whenever they like. There is a small processing fee on draw downs for amounts of less than $150 plus whatever fees your bank charges us for depositing money into your bank account (which for most banks is zero).

See 'How do I draw down funds on my pagebloom account?' for details of how to access your funds.

• Delivery to the customer's address or an address that they specify

8. Press OK

Any new orders will reflect the new state of the 'Absorb credit card fee' setting. It will not affect any previous orders.
