Important:
This article refers to the email that merchants receive. Learn more about  emails sent to customers.
Every time a store order is placed, you receive an email notification. You can customize this email so that it's sent to other recipients and change the email's text and design.

Note:
Some payment providers take a day or two to process payments. In these cases, the email is sent and the order appears in the Orders tab only after the payment is processed.

Viewing confirmation notifications

In addition to the email notification, you also receive a notification in your dashboard.
