You can define packages to reward your customers with various products ranging from game server commands, Discord roles & downloadable files. For guidance on how tp write your product descriptions, please see this blog post.

How To Create A Category
Categories are what Packages are placed in on your webstore. They allow you to organise your packages into sections.
To create a category:
1.Go to Webstore > Packages.
2.Click Create Category on the Add New dropdown.
3.Enter the following options:
Options
1.Name - This is the name of your category and how it will appear on your webstore navigation bar.
2.Description - This is the description of your category which will appear on the webstore category page.
3.Parent Category - If you'd like this category to be a subcategory of another category you can select this here.
4.Packages Display Formation - Choose if to display images of packages in this category or instead only display the package names.
5.Only Show If Customer Has Purchased Package - If you only want this category to appear if customers have purchased a certain selection of packages previously.
6.GUI Item - Enter a Minecraft Item (Minecraft only) ID if you are using the in-game package/category browser.
7.Disable Category - Temporarily remove the category from your live webstore - this does not delete the category.
8.Order By Price - Automatically sort your packages by price.
9.Cumulate Packages In Category - Create a ranking/ladder system. See info here.
10.Disable Cumulative Packages With A Lower Price Than Purchased Package - Used to hide purchased packages to make it easier for customers to see what they have already purchased in the ranking system.
11.Only allow the customer to only purchase one package from this category - Restrict the availability of the packages. Useful for creative or narrative driven servers/stores.
12.Delete pending expiry commands of other packages in this category upon a new purchase - Used to prevent ranks or permissions being removed prematurely.
13.Add any remaining time of other purchased packages in this category onto new purchases - Eg. a customer buys 30 day VIP, and 10 days in they purchase the same package again, the customer will now have 50 days remaining of VIP. 
Once you have entered all the options, click Create, and your category will now be listed on your webstore. You can now select this category when creating a package.

Cumulative Packages
The cumulative packages feature enables your customers to upgrade from one package to the next by only paying the price difference between the first and the second package. This is a convenient way to create a ranking system for your products.
An example of cumulative packages is shown below:
Package A = $10
Package B = $30
A customer purchases Package A for $10. The customer will now be able to purchase Package B for $20 in the future. ($30 - $10 = $20).
Please note: that the cumulative packages feature is logged historically. If the customer purchased a package included in your cumulative ranking at any point, they will still receive the discounted pricing. This discount does not expire even if the package expires, for example, if the package lasts for 30 days, the discount will still be available after this time.
You can enable packages to be cumulative by selecting the option on the category edit page.
Downloadable Packages
You can also create and sell downloadable products on your store - this is ideal for content creators who wish to sell products such as scripts or plugins for server owners. Downloadable packages are very quick and convenient and will ensure automatic delivery of your product download so you no longer have to maintain this manually. 
To create a downloadable package go to:
1.Webstore>Packages
2.Click "Add New Package" and select the relevant option at the bottom of the page. You can read more about our deliverable options by reading our guide here.
Options 
1.All options are the same as a normal package, listed above.
2.Link to Downloadable Content (Legacy Tebex platform only) - Enter your download link for your product. This will be automatically sent to the customer via email a few minutes after the purchase is completed. This link can include 2 variables: {transactionid}and  {username, which you can use to ensure that the item is only downloaded once per purchase for example.
