Accepting payments on Adobe Portfolio

Does anyone know if it's possible to accept card payments on an Adobe Portfolio website?

 

Maybe I could do this with a third party feature embedded somewhere on the site?

Portfolio is not an e-commerce platform.  To safely process online payment, you need a PCI compliant shopping cart on a 3rd party site.  The Portfolio embed module does not support PayPal BUY NOW buttons.

Pretty sure you could set up products on something like stripe, and through a custom page and using buttons link / sell products

If you need to manually add code for Buy Now buttons or links, you can't do it in Portfolio as it offers no access to code.  

 

For best results, use Portfolio for what it was intended -- to showcase examples of your best creative work.  To sell products/services, use a separate dedicated shopping cart  (see list above).

 

 

Hope that helps.

How is it a problem for Portfolio which is NOT an e-commerce platform.  Portfolio is for showcasing examples of your finest work to propspective employers or clients.  🙄

 

If you want to sell stuff online, use the right tools for the job (some fees will apply).

  • Etsy
  • eBay
  • Shopify
  • Squarespace with e-commerce module
  • Webflow with e-commerce module
  • WordPress with Woo Commerce plugin
