Discovery Page
The Discovery Page is a dynamic space where users can explore merchants, discover exciting offers, and engage with featured content on your platform. This page acts as a storefront for your platform, helping users easily navigate through merchant listings, promotional banners, and product highlights.
You can customize this page to include banners for special offers or store ads with external links, showcase featured products, and add tailored sections such as "Top-Selling Stores" or "Best-Rated Stores." The flexibility to design additional sections allows you to create a highly engaging and personalized experience that captures user interest.

Banners are a versatile tool on the Discovery Page, designed to grab attention and highlight key promotions. Whether showcasing discounts, promoting specific stores, or linking to external third-party websites, banners offer a dynamic way to engage users. They can also be used to feature ads or redirect customers to merchant categories or store menus for seamless navigation.

Provide a title to name your banner section. For example, if you're creating a "Top-Rated Stores" section, you can use this field to label it. The title will appear prominently at the top of the banner section, helping users easily identify its purpose. Optionally, you can add a brief description below the title to give users more context about the banners, such as highlighting the stores or offers featured in the section.
Choose the layout for your banners from four options: Horizontal, Vertical, Square, or Strip, depending on how you want the banners to appear on the Discovery Page. You can preview each layout directly in the middle of the builder screen to ensure it matches your desired design.
