WebStore, Shopping in the WebStore

How to shop on WebStore:

1. Navigate to webstore.illinois.edu, then choose the Purchase Type you intend to make: Unit Purchase or Personal Purchase. To select the Purchase Type, use the "Personal Purchase" and "Unit Purchase" buttons at the top of the page. The Personal Purchases shop is an entirely separate store from the Unit Purchases Shop. You will only find products that can be purchased with a credit card in the Personal Purchases store. You will only find products that can be purchased with a Banner account on the Unit Purchases store. 

• • University funds pay for Unit Purchase software and training courses, and items that are not free require a Banner Account Number. Unit Purchased software products are for installation on University-owned machines.
  • Personal Purchase software and training courses are NOT paid for by University funds and require a valid personal credit card for items that are not free. Personal Purchase software products are for installation on personally-owned computers.

 2.  After you enter a store, you can find products using one of the following methods:

• Browse all product offers, by clicking the "Browse Catalog" Heading at the top of the Catalog.

• Enter a specific product name in the Product Search box near the top of the page to search for a particular item.

• Browse by category, by selecting a category from the list on the page

3. Once you have found the item you wish to purchase, select the quantity and put it in your cart. Many of the WebStore offerings are free. If there is a price on the item, please note that if you pay with a credit card, the item will be subject to sales tax. Items paid for with a Banner account, are not subject to sales tax. University pCards cannot be used for either credit card or Banner Account purchases.

4. When you are finished shopping and ready to check out, select "Check Out". On checkout, you may need to review and sign any EULA's that are required with the license. You will enter any necessary payment information to complete the order. 

5. Upon completion, you will be redirected the Order History part of your account where your recent order is stored.

You can revisit your order, access any download links that come with the software, look up your installation key or code, review additional instructions and get links to guides for learning about, installing and activating your software here. If you need to contact WebStore for support, your Order Number, along with the NetID or email address of the purchaser is important information to include with your question.

6. An Order Confirmation will also automatically be sent to your email address. Along with your order information, your confirmation will contain links to your order details with codes, downloads and instructions, a support link to submit a support request, a survey link and additional information about your purchase at the bottom.

7. That's it! You have completed a purchase at WebStore. If you need to make purchases with both credit cards and a Banner account, you will have to complete two separate purchases in both stores.
