About the template
About Boutique
Boutique is made for online stores. Fraunces serif headings and a warm orange-to-pink hero give it an editorial feel, and the hero has room for a promo line under the headline, like your returns policy.
The header comes with links for order tracking and returns, ready to point at your store’s own pages, and articles end with share buttons and “You might also like” cards, so a shopper who came for a delivery answer finds the next thing to read.
Best for
- Online stores and direct-to-consumer brands
- Order, delivery and returns questions
- Brands with an editorial look

Make it yours
Start from Boutique’s settings. Change any of them.
These are the settings Boutique ships with. Each one is a control in the visual editor, and changing it restyles every page at once. Add your logo, use your own fonts, and add custom CSS when you want full control.

Is the Boutique template free?
Boutique is included in every HelpCenter.io plan at no extra cost, like every template, and you can try it free for 14 days with no credit card needed.
Can I change Boutique’s colours and fonts?
Yes. Boutique starts with Fraunces and Inter and #c2410c as its primary colour. Both are settings in the visual editor, along with your logo, the rest of the palette, the corner radius and the spacing, and changing one restyles every page.
Does Boutique have a dark mode?
Yes. Boutique has its own dark palette, and visitors get it automatically when their device is set to dark mode. You can edit the dark palette separately from the light one, and add a logo made for dark backgrounds.
Can I switch from Boutique to another template later?
Yes, whenever you like, from the theme gallery in the editor. You compare the new template with your current design and choose which parts of it to apply. Your articles and categories are never touched, and nothing changes for visitors until you publish.
Does Boutique work on phones?
Yes. Boutique is built to reflow on screens as narrow as 320px, and the editor previews desktop, tablet and mobile sizes before you publish. The phone screenshot on this page shows its home page 390 pixels wide.
