# Step 4: Buying and Minting the NFT on the Blockchain

This article describes how your customers will purchase NFTs from your storefront.&#x20;

To experience the buying process as they do, navigate to your online store.Here you’ll find the purchasable NFT product you’ve just created. To test, you will want to create an NFT with a price of $0. Follow the instructions to [Create NFT Products](https://docs.vividlabs.com/vivid-nft-shop-app-getting-started/step-2-create-nft-products) and set the price to $0.

Select that product to go to the NFT product page. Purchase the NFT by clicking **Buy it now.**

Continue through the payment process and complete your order.

Now that the purchase has been made, the buyer will receive an order confirmation email. The next step will be to fulfill the order to mint and deliver the NFT.

Navigate to your store’s admin page. Click **Orders** on the left side of the screen.&#x20;

Select the new order from the list of orders and complete delivery by clicking the **Unfulfilled** button.

Click the **Fulfill item** button to fulfill the order.&#x20;

After that the order is fulfilled, the NFT is minted and can be tracked on the blockchain explorer and the buyer will receive an email with the links to access their private NFT product and information.

***Note:** Once the blockchain has recorded the transaction for creating the NFT, the transaction hash will be recorded on your order page as shown below. Since blockchain transactions take up to a minute to confirm, you can refresh the page about 2 minutes later to see the transaction.*

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.vividlabs.com/vivid-nft-shop-app-getting-started/step-4-buying-and-minting-the-nft-on-the-blockchain.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
