Usage

Miguel is primarily intended for publishers and authors/self-publishers who have their own e-shop and want to offer e-books directly to the customers.

API​

Using Miguel via its API. This way must be used if you are using a custom e-shop solution. Launching and activation requires some adjustments to your e-shop (most commonly adjusting the product menu to include an electronic product). For more information, see Usage > API.

More information can be found in the Shoptet section. There is no need to modify your e-shop or do complicated configurations. However, the system also allows individual setting of email templates or automatic change of the order status. See Shoptet > Settings.
