10 Enabling B2C (Business to Customer)
PrintShop Mail Web not only enables B2B (Business to Business) transactions, but also B2C (Business to
Customer) transactions.
URL of a Public Company
To allow any visitor from the web to view and order selected documents, without having to create an account
first, the documents and publication types must be defined in a public company, that is a company whose type
is Public. Like any company, a public company can be accessed by typing the PrintShop Mail Web URL with
the company name as the path. For example, if the URL of PrintShop Mail Web is www.psmw.com and a public
company is named 'shop', then the URL of the public company is http://www.acmeprinting.com/shop.
Instead of the login page, the home page of a public company displays basic actions that any customer can
do: add item(s) to a shopping cart and checkout.

How to Create a Public Company
To create a public company, a PrintShop Mail adminstrator (or user with appropriate rights) simply needs to
add a new company and specify its type to be Public.

A company defined in PrintShop Mail Web as Public can be accessed by any visitor from the web without
having to log in. It is therefore like a public online shop where any visitor can view document(s) and create
order(s). Only when proceeding to checkout is the vistor invited to create an account.
The same types of documents can be published either in a public or private company (PDF, user upload, user
input, database).
