How to Manage Multiple Stores

YouCan lets you operate multiple stores under a single account. Each store can have its own products, settings, and domain, while sharing the same login credentials.

View All Your Stores

Your stores are displayed on the Accounts Home page.

Each store appears as a card showing:

Logo: Your store's branding image
Store name: The name you gave the store
Status badge: Showing whether the store is Active, Inactive, or in Dev (development) mode

Click any store card to access that store's Seller Area dashboard.

Create a New Store

To add another store to your account:

Method 1: From Accounts Hub

Go to accounts.youcan.shop
Look for the Add a new store button below your existing stores
Click the button
Enter your new store details (name, language, currency)
Click Create

Method 2: From Seller Area

Go to seller-area.youcan.shop/admin
Click your profile icon in the top right corner
