Using the Shop Configuration checkout options, you can make different checkout options. With Viber checkout, visitors can add products to the Flipbook’s basket, and export the contents to a Viber conversation with the recipient of their choice.

How it works
As your customers browse your Flipbooks, they'll be able to add items in the catalog to their basket using the Shop Enrichments you've created.
In the bottom left-hand corner, your customers will be able to send their basket via a Viber message to, for example, to a friend, colleague or local representative.
Once your customers click to check out their basket via Viber, they'll be presented with a QR code, which they scan using their Viber app, and then select the number to which they wish to send their basket.
The recipient will receive a list of your customers' orders, allowing them to complete their purchase.
