# Enable Edge Delivery

> Serve storefront search from an edge region close to your shoppers for faster results.

Edge Delivery serves your storefront search requests from an **edge region geographically close to your shoppers** instead of a single central location. The search results and features are exactly the same — only where the request is served from changes — so shoppers in those regions get noticeably faster instant search, autocomplete, and search pages.

## Why enable Edge Delivery

* **Lower latency, faster search.** Requests are answered from a region near the shopper instead of a round-trip to a central server, so instant-search and autocomplete feel snappier.
* **Better experience in specific geographies.** Pick the region(s) that match where most of your shoppers are — for example Mumbai for India and Toronto for North America.
* **Higher engagement and conversion.** Faster, more responsive search keeps shoppers browsing and reduces drop-off on slow queries.
* **No change to results or setup.** Edge serves the same routes, ranking, filters, and merchandising as the default host — nothing about your catalog, configuration, or theme needs to change.

<Note>
  Edge Delivery is currently available in **Mumbai (India)** and **Toronto (North America)**. Choose one or both depending on where your shoppers are.

## How to enable Edge Delivery

#### 1. Open the Edge Delivery card on your dashboard

In the Glood AI Search & Merchandising app, the **Overview** (home) page shows an **Edge Delivery** card with its current status. Click **Manage Edge Regions** to open the setting (or go to **Settings → Edge Regions**).

#### 2. Turn on Edge Delivery and select your regions

In the **Edge Regions** section, check **Enable Edge Delivery**, then under **Select Edge Regions** choose the region(s) closest to your shoppers — **Mumbai (India)** and/or **Toronto (North America)**.

#### 3. Save

Click **Save**. Your selected regions are provisioned and storefront search starts serving from the edge.

#### 4. Confirm it is enabled

Return to the **Overview** page — the Edge Delivery card now shows an **Enabled** badge. That confirms edge is live for your store.

## For headless & custom storefronts

If you use the [Headless Search API](/api-reference/search/introduction), point your client at the regional edge host (for example `https://mum.edge.glood.ai` or `https://tor.edge.glood.ai`) instead of the default `https://search.glood.ai`. The routes and payloads are identical — see [Edge URLs](/api-reference/search/introduction#edge-urls) for the full list of hosts and the required Content Security Policy note.
