[intro] On the EKM online shop platform, Features are apps in a way - specific functionalities which you can add to your account to help you manage and run your shop effectively. Which features you install are entirely up to you and in this Guide, we will be looking at both free and chargeable Features. [/intro]

On the EKM online shop, Features are like apps on your smartphone and are installed to provide functionality that suits the purpose of your EKM online shop. The vast majority of the Features are free, and those with charges are clearly indicated as being so. Features can also be easily removed if you find they don't suit your purpose.
