The Trek Connect E-Commerce ("click and collect") service allows customers to order online and have their order shipped either directly to them (for non-bike orders) or to their local dealer (bikes will not be direct-shipped). Trek handles all taxes and payment processing. This service is provided at no charge to Trek dealers.

When a customer purchases a bike through the Trek Connect E-Commerce service, your store receives an email containing the customer and bike details. Record a work order to track the build and delivery.

Sherpa tip: This process applies ONLY to bike purchases. Do not enter parts and accessories orders into Ascend, and do not add the bike as a sale item on a transaction - this will skew your reporting for sales taxes, and you may be liable for paying sales tax you did not collect from customers.

For details on the Trek Connect e-commerce platform, see the B2B article.
