- Navigate to Products → Create a Product.
Is is a crutial step, in our case we just want to send a TEXT MESSAGE to the buyer after purchase. So we will select the Text Product type.
For other product types, please refer to their respective tutorials that you can find in the Product Types Tutorial section.
For the next sections please take not that you can find details information about each by clicking on the "?" icon next to each field on the dashboard.
