This guide covers how to make purchases from a mobile site using a mobile device. Photographers, please see this guide for how to set up your site to sell products through the mobile site.
When a Zenfolio site is viewed with an iPhone or Android mobile device, the mobile version of the site is displayed by default. Through the mobile site, you can purchase photos and products.
