0 RaMMz Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 As far as I know, it can be used for anything, from physical products, virtual, servers, etc. I'm sure that you can apply for a trial and check it yourself (or just check out the demo). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ufuk34 Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 Hi, you can use WHMCS also for selling physical products. Just when creating a product under Product/Services.. choose the file in Other Tabs.. Before that you need to add that file under Support -- Downloads. Create a Category and add the file via ftp. The download link will look like http://www.sitename.com/dl.php?type=d&id=2. After successfully purchase the customer will be able to download the file. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 zomex Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 I believe it can be used for physical products. I'm working on a basic online store selling clothes and will be using WHMCS. If you're looking to sell a large amount of physical products I'd suggests more specific software but for a few products it should work well.

Jack even if he want to sell a large amount of physical products , WHMCS will work well, he just need to customize the client area template to be close to any regular e-store. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 getup Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 It even has a very basic stock implementation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Alistair Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 You can use it for that, but bear in mind you cannot delete products once they have been sold; so if you are selling large numbers, your product list may soon be hard to manage. I believe the WHMCS team are working on an improvement though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the WHMCS team are working on an improvement though. He can hide it from client area. But it would be better to use a software that meet e-commerce sites needs, I think Prestashop is quite good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 RenatoMN Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I personally recommend OpenCart. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 routerboy Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Does anyone know of a DEMO cart using WHMCS to sell physical products? I'd like to see one implemented. The support for this cart has always been top notch and I'd like to use it for my next project but that next project has a few items to sell with services.
