Network Store Basics

Setting up your Network Store

Store name, logo, currency, tax, order notifications and what happens when a renewal payment fails — everything on the Settings screen and which choices are hard to undo.

Last updated September 2, 2026


Settings is where the store gets its identity and its money rules. Most of it can be changed whenever you like; two things really cannot, and they are called out below.

Go to Network Store, open your store, then Settings at the bottom of the left-hand menu. You need Owner or Manager access to see it.

General settings

SettingWhat it does
Store NameShown to buyers at the top of the storefront and on their receipts.
Store LogoAppears on the storefront. Upload or change it with the button under the field.
Store IntroductionA welcome message at the top of the store. Use it to say who the store is for and who to contact with problems.
CurrencyThe ISO currency your payment provider charges in — AUD, USD, GBP.
Tax PercentageThe rate applied to orders, for example 10 for GST.
Tax NameWhat the tax is called on receipts and invoices — GST, VAT, Tax.
Tax ApplicationWhether your prices already include tax, or tax is added at the total.
Connected Network Store Child OrganisationsWhich other organisations can reach this store, and at what level.
CURRENCY AND TAX APPLICATION ARE SET-ONCE DECISIONS
Both change what a buyer is charged. Once orders exist, changing either leaves your history on the old basis and your reports mixing the two. Get them right before you open the store, not after.

Tax included or tax added

This decides how the price you type on a variant is read.

ChoiceA variant priced at 110 with 10% tax
Tax Included in PriceBuyer pays 110. Of that, 10 is tax.
Tax Added to TotalBuyer pays 121. The 11 tax is added at checkout.
WHICH TO PICK
Pick whichever matches the prices you already quote your network. If your price list is what a tribe expects to pay, choose Tax Included.

Order notifications

Decides who hears about a new order. Without this nobody is told, and the first you know of an order is when you open the Orders screen.

  • Notify Users — pick people in your organisation. They are notified in Gorilla Dash.
  • Additional Notification Emails — any other address, for people outside the platform such as a supplier or a print partner. Press Enter after each one.

Individual products can add their own notification recipients on top of these, which is how you send shirt orders to the uniform supplier and event orders to the events team without either seeing the other.

Failed payments

When a subscription renewal is charged to a saved card and the card is declined, this decides what happens next. Cards expire and get replaced constantly, so this is normal traffic rather than an exception.

SettingWhat it does
Retry failed paymentsTurn retries on or off. On is the sensible default.
Retry after (days)How long to wait before each retry. Enter one number per attempt and press Enter — for example 3 then 7, meaning retry three days later, then seven days after that.
Suspend after attemptsHow many failed attempts before the subscription is suspended. Leave it blank to never suspend automatically.

Out of the box a store retries after 3 days and again after 7, and never suspends. That suits most networks: you would rather chase a tribe than cut off their service over an expired card.

IF YOU LEAVE SUSPEND BLANK
Nothing switches off on its own. Watch Accounts Receivable for anything that keeps failing, and use a card request to ask the tribe for new details.

Deleting a store

There is a Delete Store button at the bottom of Settings. A store that has ever taken an order cannot be deleted — the orders, payments and receivables belong to it, and removing it would take your financial history with it.

IF YOU WANT TO STOP SELLING, DO NOT DELETE
Deactivate the products instead. The storefront empties, existing subscriptions carry on billing, and your history stays intact and reportable.
