Time for action - creating an account and placing an order

Here is how to do it. I will go through this tutorial as if you are doing the clicking.

1. 1. Browse through your store and add a couple of products to your cart. Click on the cart link and see what it looks like. Does it all look straightforward and intuitive to you?

2. 2. Click on the Check out button and create an account as prompted.

3. 3. Click on the Next button and review the shipping summary page. Does it appear as expected with the right shipping options? Click on Next.

4. 4. Click on the payment option PayPal, Google Checkout, or any other option that you have set up. If you chose to offer cheque, bank wire, or cash on delivery, then I suggest you do not choose them here. It will be useful (as we will see later in the chapter) to see how PrestaShop integrates with your chosen payment provider, and we will discuss how to handle the orders as well.

5. 5. Complete the transaction through your preferred payment provider.
