    1917We built WPMerchant so that anyone can use simple, effective and innovative one click checkout technology to sell their products online; so that your customers can have the quickest possible fully integrated purchase flow (they aren't redirected to another site); so that you don't have to pay $200, $300, $400, or $500+ per year to keep your premium extensions updated; AND, most importantly, so that anyone can start making money today by selling products/widgets/etc using WPMerchant. WPMerchant is the quickest, easiest and most effective way to create an online store that produces sales.
