We are incredibly thankful to our amazing forum community of beta testers who helped us review and improve this theme. It’s their deep interest and dedication that motivates us to go forward with our developments – you guys are the best! 🙂

How is this dropship website theme different from our previous ones?

You probably remember that with our solutions, you can create a website on the basis of any of the following themes:

• Da Vinci
• Michelangelo
• Rembrandt

All of them are named after great artists whose legacy lives for centuries, and each of these themes is carefully crafted and tested to ensure the highest customers’ satisfaction – and the biggest owners’ revenue.

However, diversity is the key to success – plus, in the tech world, it is vital to always stay up-to-date, and to research and implement the newest industry advancements.

This is why we worked so hard on the new theme development: we want our clients to have more options for their dropshipping stores, and we want these online stores to look progressive and professional.

So, with the new Raphael theme installed on your website, you get:

#1 Purchase motivation elements

That’s probably the most important thing you want from an online store, right?

If you have the Raphael theme installed on your website, all your single product pages have some tiny yet highly powerful elements such as:

– Cross-sell products or the complementing items that make a good match with this particular offer, and can be bought together.

– Payment icons displayed under the ‘Add to Cart’ button that demonstrate all the possible payment options to your visitors.
