Hello everyone,

I would really appreciate your help and thank you in advance.

I’m facing a dilemma: the Pickaxe sales page template could still be improved aesthetically, and I’m afraid of running ads and getting fewer conversions.

I’ve been thinking about creating a more complete and persuasive sales page on another URL, but then other issues arise:

1. I would need to have a checkout outside of Pickaxe.

2. I would need to manually enroll people into Pickaxe after their purchase.

Do you happen to have a solution for this? In other words, an external checkout solution with automatic enrollment into Pickaxe after the purchase?

Is it possible to embed only the Pickaxe checkout into my external sales page?

Maybe the Pickaxe developers already have this feature, and I’m just out of date…

Thank you very much for your contributions.

P.S.: I’m not a programmer.

@equipeid

This is what we’re doing (1000 members so far & profitable)

1. Run traffic to external sales page where we can better track conversions, tweak design, upsell, downsell, etc.
2. Upon purchase CREATE user in Pickaxe using their [Pickaxe | Build & Manage AI Agents](https://api.pickaxe.co/studio/user/create) API (I have this set up on Zapier, but I’d recommend MAKE, as Pickaxe is working towards Make integrations)
3. If they buy any upsells, we use the PATCH user API [Pickaxe | Build & Manage AI Agents](https://api.pickaxe.co/studio/user/) 
4. For me I don’t collect much info from them before they buy (name, email, phone), so my workaround is to use the user’s phone number as their password when creating the user in Pickaxe. I have found if you use the Password blank or try to use the Magic link it’s just too glitchy and not fully there yet.
5. I use my CRM to send them a welcome email and their "log in details”. In there I tell them their username is their email, their password is their phone, and here’s a link to log in (my Pickaxe Studio)

Hope that helps!

I just came here to ask the same question. There has to be some additional ways people have figured out how to do this.

I want to use a Wix website so I can easily hook up the conversions API from facebook ads. I want to host my pickaxe on there but I’m unsure how payments would be handled.

Any insight from community members who’ve figured out a good solution to this would be appreciated deeply. Thanks guys!

I’m not a Wix user, but I did use squarespace for a hot minute which is similar.

Here’s how I would do it:

1. Have your sales page / checkout page where you take money for the thing.

2. Upon purchase either REDIRECT the thank you page OR send a fulfillment email for the thing they bought with the link in there.

3. Host the pickaxe embedded on a secret page on your website. One that’s not linked anywhere but only accessible to people who have bought. You may be able to even password protect it so only people who got the fulfillment email will have the password.

**Helpful stuff from ChatGPT:**

# **Wix Redirects After Purchase Options**

By default, Wix Stores doesn’t include a built-in redirect option after purchase. However, you can do it with:

- **Thank You Page Redirect**  
After checkout, customers land on a “Thank You” page. You can edit that page and add a script that automatically redirects them to your chosen URL.  
Example script (insert in page settings → advanced → custom code):

```auto
<script>
  setTimeout(function(){
    window.location.href = "https://yourdomain.com/your-custom-url";
  }, 1000); // waits 1 second before redirect
</script>

```

- **Wix Automations**  
Set up an automation: _When order is placed → Send an email with your redirect link_.  
Not an auto-redirect, but works for guiding customers.

# 🔒 Password Protecting a Page in Wix

1. **Go to Your Site Dashboard** → Open the **Editor**.
2. In the **Pages Menu** (left sidebar), select the page you want to protect.
3. Click the **Settings** icon ⚙ next to that page.
4. Go to the **Permissions** tab.
5. Choose **Password Holders**.
6. Set a password → save it → publish your site.

Now, when someone tries to open that page, they’ll need to enter the password you created.

* * *

## 👥 Alternative Options

- **Restrict by Members** : Instead of a password, you can limit access to certain “member roles” (e.g., only paying members, subscribers, or logged-in users).
- **Different Passwords per Page** : Yes, you can set a unique password for each page individually.
- **Hiding Pages** : You can also make a page hidden from menus but still accessible if someone has the direct link (can be combined with password).

* * *

# Hiding A Page From Google Search Results:

## 🔧 Step 1: Hide Page from Search Engines

1. In your **Wix Editor** , open the **Pages menu**.
2. Select the secret page → click **Settings**.
3. Go to the **SEO Basics** tab.
4. Toggle **“Hide this page from search results”** (this adds a `noindex` tag so Google and other search engines don’t index it).

* * *

## 🔧 Step 2: Hide the Page URL from Sitemaps

1. From your **Wix Dashboard** , go to **Marketing & SEO** → **SEO Tools** → **SEO Settings**.
2. Under the **Site Pages** list, select your secret page.
3. Make sure **“Show this page in search results”** is turned **off** — this keeps it out of your sitemap that Google reads.
