Getting started

Upselling Premium Services
The services that we partner with and upsell on your website are offered by the most successful e-commerce stores. Like that, we give you the ability to offer the same services without the need of having the necessary resources to do so. We also provide you with a competitive advantage without you having to anything. That way, you can offer relevant services that many customers are already taking full advantage of from your competitors.
All the premium services are Moona tested and verified. They go through an extensive verification process where we make sure to check everything to the last detail. That way we know we’re partnering with safe and regulated services.
As per Moona guidelines, all services are subject to a “cancel and refund anytime” policy to ensure customer satisfaction and full transparency.

You keep control of your brand because the services are embedded seamlessly and integrated to your theme and branding (font, colour, theme…).
Thanks to our 1 click technology, you keep control of your user experience since your customers add the premium services to their purchase without leaving your website.
