Product Visibility controls discovery on the Home Feed and Shop: Everywhere (Global), or only shoppers in your country. Your own store page is never affected.
A local store gets orders from countries it cannot deliver to.
Choose whether your products are discovered worldwide or only in your country. You need a Pludor store - free to create.
In Pludor, set Product Visibility to 'Only shoppers in my country' so your products only show up in the Home Feed and Shop for people in your country. Go to Settings > Store Profile, find Product Visibility, pick the local option, confirm your Business Country is correct, and save. Your store page itself stays visible to everyone, so direct links still work.
Product Visibility controls where your products can be discovered on the Pludor Home Feed and Shop: everywhere in the world, or only by shoppers in your own country. It never affects your own store page, which stays visible regardless. You change it under Settings > Store Profile.
Open Settings > Store Profile, find Product Visibility, and switch it to 'Everywhere (Global)', then save. Before going global, it's smart to check what shipping to new countries will cost - Pludor has a free Shipping Cost & Free Shipping Calculator that shows the price instantly, no account needed.
No. The visibility setting only affects discovery on the Home Feed and Shop marketplace - your own store page is never affected. Anyone with your store link can still view and buy from it. Only the marketplace browsing is limited to your chosen audience.
Nothing extra - it's on for every store, including the Free plan at $0 with no item limit. Pludor includes a free amount of everything each month (for example 3,000 visits and 100 AI replies); past that you pay only for what you use in credits, where 1 credit equals 1 cent. New stores also get 500 free credits.
After saving your choice in Settings > Store Profile, browse the Pludor shop as if you were a shopper in another country and compare what you see. If you set local visibility, your products should not appear for shoppers outside your Business Country. Also double-check that your Business Country is set correctly, since that's what the local option relies on.
It depends on where you can actually deliver. If you only ship domestically, local visibility avoids orders from countries you can't serve. If you can ship internationally, global visibility gets you more discovery - but price your shipping first using a tool like Pludor's free Shipping Cost & Free Shipping Calculator so you know your costs before expanding.
Go to pludor.com/setup, pick a store name and business type, and sign up - no card is needed on the Free plan. Then add your first product under Products, connect Stripe in Settings so card payments reach your bank, and share your store link or product QR code. New orders show up in Orders, where you mark them packed, shipped or ready for pickup.
