Categories keep a growing catalog tidy. Assigning each product to a category lets you filter your Products and Inventory lists down to the group you care about, so you spend less time scrolling.

​
Assign a category to a product

You set a product’s category on the product itself, so a category comes into being the moment you first use it.
1

Open the product

Open Products and either add a new product or edit an existing one. See Add a product.
2

Pick a category

In the Category field, choose one from the list. The list includes a set of common categories to get you started, plus any category already used elsewhere in your catalog.
3

Save

Save the product. It now belongs to that category, and the category is available to pick for other products.
Keep category names short and consistent, for example Gift Cards or Game Keys. A handful of clear groups is easier to work with than many overlapping ones.

​
Filter by category

Once your products carry categories, you can narrow your lists by them:

Products list

Filter the catalog down to a single category to find a product faster.

Inventory list

Filter your stock overview by category to review one group’s stock at a time. See Manage stock.
A dedicated Categories page, where you can manage categories on their own and map them to what a marketplace expects, is on the way. For now you organize your catalog by setting the category on each product.
