Consumer and Business E-Catalogs
E-Catalogs can be organized into pricing and availability groups to limit customer access to selected products and pricing. Pricing can be displayed at retail or can be calculated as a markup over cost or a discount off retail. E-Merchants can use the grouping system to create retail, wholesale or specialized selling environments.

Robust Product Attributes
Products can be configured with unlimited attributes such as size, optional features and personalization. Each attribute can be a multiple choice, checkbox or text field and can cause an increase or reduction in price. An attribute can be mandatory or optional.

Database Management
Thousands of categories and products can be maintained in Miva Merchant without sacrificing performance. The database architecture of the system provides for instant organization and fast product search while maintaining complete compatibility with other systems. You can use dozens of different database management tool to access Miva Merchant xBase compatible data files.

Modular Architecture
The architecture of Miva Merchant is specifically designed so that developers and after-market venders can implement their own customized modules around a common API. Once a module is developed, push button registration automatically integrates it into the main Miva Merchant system.

• Shipping

• Payment

• Currency

• Sales Tax

• Batch Reporting

• Import / Export

• Buyer Traffic Reporting
