Overview
By utilizing either the logic functionality to map out your Collection or by picking the products one at a time, Buddi's Collections feature enables you to group various products together and create curated menu experiences for your customers. Once a Collection has been made, you may utilize it for a variety of additional marketing and sales strategies, like discounts and featured product banners, for example. It is a very useful tool that can be used to direct clients to a certain section of your menu, and collections also set you apart from your competitors within the crowded cannabis marketplace.
Name of Your Collection and Website URL
The name you choose for your Collection will also determine the URL slug shown to customers. For example, let's say you create a Collection called 'Staff Picks' you can link directly to this grouping of products by sharing the URL slug shown below the name field. The URL to a Collection called staff picks would be something like this: yourmenu.com/our-products/#/menu/collections/staff-picks - Highlighted in yellow is your website URL (i.e. you have a page called 'Our Products' or similar, bolded is Buddi's URL structure for that collection.
Why would I need a URL to the collection if I'm just using a tile picture?
- You can use this to link from various areas of your website. Let's set on your home page you want to link directly to that 'Staff Picks' Collection via a banner image, well you can link that banner image directly to the staff picks URL above.
Buddi offers two methods for building Collections: 'Select Using Logic' and 'Individually Select'. Each method serves different purposes depending on the type of Collection you're creating.

Note on iFrames
- This method of embedding the script is used certain website providers such as Wix. IFrame menus cannot read the web browser's URL input. This means that linking directly to Collections will not work. However, you can still use the tile images.
