Setting Up Your Shopify Integration

• Product SKUs: Unique SKUs for each product variant must be entered in the SKU field on Shopify. Duplicate SKUs, including those in draft mode, or blank SKUs in Shopify will result in errors when syncing your products to our portal.

  • All products should be set as Active in your Shopify store - products in draft mode will be not be synced.

• Weight: The weight of the packaged product must be entered in pounds (lbs) in the Weight field on Shopify for accurate shipping rates.

• HS Tariff Code (if applicable): If shipping internationally, including the United States, please ensure the correct HS Tariff Code and Retail Price is entered on Shopify so an accurate commercial invoice can be generated for customs.

You can update these requirements in bulk by either uploading a CSV file to Shopify or by using their bulk editor.
