# AI Product Websites

> Create and publish a hosted sales website from an existing product with Premium, Business or Growth

Turn an existing PayRequest product into a sales website with AI-assisted text, a choice of three styles and a hosted PayRequest address. Visitors can learn about your offer, then select **View price and buy** to open your existing product checkout.

> [!NOTE]
>
> AI product websites are included with an **active paid Premium, Business or Growth subscription**. Free accounts see an **Upgrade to Premium** callout on product detail pages. Trial, pending or expired subscriptions do not unlock this feature.

## Before you start

* Create a product with a clear name, public description and, optionally, product features and a cover image.
* Use the main account owner's login to open the website editor.
* Activate your product and your Payment Page before publishing. A paused product cannot be published as a website.
* Complete the payment-provider setup required for your existing checkout to accept payments.

You can prepare a private draft while your product or Payment Page is inactive. Creating a website does not publish your product, connect a payment provider or change its payment eligibility.

## Create your website

**1. Open your product**

In the web dashboard, open **Products** and select an existing product. Select **Create website with AI** in the website callout. If you see **Upgrade to Premium**, open the plan settings and complete a qualifying paid subscription first. Business and Growth subscribers can use the same website button.

**2. Choose the website language**

Select English, Dutch, German, French, Spanish or Portuguese under **Website language**.

**3. Generate a private draft**

Select **Create website with AI** in the editor. PayRequest uses the product's public name, description and features to prepare editable website text. The website uses your existing product cover when available; this action does not generate a new image.

**4. Review and personalize**

Check the headline, introduction, product story, audience and highlights. Choose a style, then adjust the search title and description. Confirm that every claim accurately describes your product.

**5. Save and preview**

Select **Save draft**, then **Preview saved draft**. The preview is private and its purchase buttons are disabled. Unsaved changes are not included in the preview.

**6. Publish and share**

Select **Publish website** when your product and Payment Page are active. Copy the address shown under **Ready to share**, or select **Open website** to view the published page.

> [!TIP]
>
> A specific product description gives AI more useful facts to work with. Describe what the buyer receives and who it is for before generating the website. AI text still needs your review.

## Choose a style and edit your content

| Setting | What you can change |
| - | - |
| Website style | **Studio** for a clean, colorful design; **Editorial** for a warm, elegant design; **Midnight** for a bold, dark design |
| Headline | Your main sales heading, up to 140 characters |
| Introduction | A short opening description, up to 350 characters |
| Product story | More detail about your offer, up to 3,500 characters |
| Who is this for? | A short audience description, up to 250 characters |
| Highlights | Up to six short points, one per line |
| Search title | Up to 70 characters |
| Search description | Up to 170 characters |

The layouts adapt to mobile and desktop screens. You edit the content and choose a style; this is not a free-form HTML editor or a multi-page website builder.

## Your hosted website address

Published websites use an address such as:

```text theme={null}
https://photography-course-123.payrequest.me
```

The address combines a product-based name with its product ID. Copy the exact address from the editor. Once saved, the website address stays the same when you rename the product; there is no custom subdomain-name field in this release.

Hosting and HTTPS are included. You do not need to create DNS records, buy hosting or install a certificate for your PayRequest website address.

> [!NOTE]
>
> **Connecting your own domain to an AI product website is not available yet.** Use the generated PayRequest address. Existing [shop custom-domain settings](https://docs.payreque.st/shop-and-checkout/custom-domains.md) remain separate and do not connect an AI product website automatically.

## How checkout and delivery work

Your website presents the product. Its **View price and buy** buttons open the existing product checkout on your Payment Page, where buyers see the current price, currency, taxes and any recurring or additional charges before paying.

Your product's existing payment methods, checkout requirements and delivery settings continue to apply. A generated page does not create a second product or change its price, subscriptions, private files, download rules or membership access. Creating or publishing a website does not send an email.

For example, a website promoting a PDF sends buyers to the existing PDF checkout. Confirmed payment uses the product's existing download delivery. A video-series website similarly sends viewers to the existing series product page and checkout; it does not create a new video player or unlock paid episodes.

## Update or unpublish a website

After publication, edit and save a new draft without changing the live website. Select **Publish changes** to replace the published website with the saved changes, including its selected language.

**Generate a fresh draft** replaces the draft's text and resets its style. It does not replace your published website until you publish again. Review and save your preferred style before publishing.

Product prices and purchase terms continue to come from checkout. If you change the product description, regenerate or edit the website copy when you want that change reflected in the website text.

Select **Unpublish website** to take the website offline while retaining its draft. This does not unpublish the product or disable its existing checkout link. Hidden, inactive or paused products, an inactive Payment Page, or a suspended seller account can also make the website unavailable.

> [!NOTE]
>
> If your qualifying paid subscription expires, access to the website editor stops and published websites become unavailable. Saved drafts and published content are retained. Restore qualifying paid access to use the feature again, provided the product and Payment Page are still available.

## AI availability and usage limits

AI generation has usage limits. Identical product details and the same language may reuse a previous result. If AI is unavailable or a limit is reached, PayRequest prepares an editable template from your product details and tells you that a template was used. You can review, edit and publish that template.

Only the public product name, description, features and selected language are used for website text generation. Private delivery files, customer records and payment configuration are not included.

## Troubleshooting

> [accordion] Why do I see Upgrade to Premium when I have Business?
>
> An active paid Business subscription qualifies. Open your plan settings and check that the subscription is current. An unpaid checkout, expired term or trial does not qualify. If your current paid subscription is not recognized, contact support.

> [accordion] Why is Publish website unavailable?
>
> Generate a draft first. Make sure the product is active, visible and unpaused, your Payment Page is active, and your qualifying paid subscription is current. You can keep working on a private draft while preparing an inactive product or Payment Page.

> [accordion] Why does my preview show older text?
>
> The preview displays the saved draft. Select Save draft before opening it. The public website displays the last published version until you select Publish changes.

> [accordion] Why am I asked to reload before saving?
>
> The website changed in another tab. Reload the editor to load the latest saved version before making further changes.

> [accordion] Does publishing guarantee visitors or sales?
>
> No. Share the website with your audience through your own channels. Search titles and descriptions help describe the page; they do not guarantee indexing, rankings, traffic or sales.
