Integrate Shopify with your Thryv website
Let's get started by getting your Shopify App installed.
Installation
Locate the Shopify App in the App Market and click on Get This App
You will be taken to the App Store within Shopify. Click on Install
If you aren't already logged into Shopify, you will be prompted to do so. Sign in with your Shopify credentials
After logging into Shopify, choose a Shopify account to continue.
You will be brought to the app in Shopify. Review the permissions being shared between Thryv and Shopify. Click on Install App to agree and start the installation.
Next, agree to the terms and conditions within Thryv and enter your Shopify Store Address
*What is your Shopify address? I am so glad you asked. It is the URL for your online store. It is formatted, YourBusinessName(or unique name you picked).myshopify.com.
For example daisysdaises.myshopify.com
Your installed Thryv app will appear under the Apps tab in your Shopify account.
The Initial Sync
The initial sync will copy your existing customers and payments from Shopify to Thryv Business Center.
Once the app install is complete, your customer list and payments in Shopify will begin to sync to Thryv Business Center. This is a one-way sync from Shopify to Thryv Business Center. (The clients and payments in Thryv Business Center will not sync to Shopify.) Your entire customer list will sync. Only the previous 60 days of payments will sync.
The amount of time to sync your customer list and payments from Shopify to Thryv Business Center is dependent on the amount of information that has to be synced. So extensive customer lists will require more time to sync.
You will receive a notification to your inbox once the sync has completed successfully.
The Ongoing Sync
This integration creates an ongoing sync of your new customers and new payments from Shopify to Thryv Business Center.
New customers added to Shopify will also be created in Thryv Business Center.
- The client's first name, last name, email, phone number, and address will sync to the Thryv Business Center client card. (Other Shopify fields such as company, notes, and tags do not sync.)
- The client will be added to the client list within minutes of creation. No notification will be sent about the new client creation.
- Clients created by the Shopify integration will be notated as such under the Info tab > Additional Information > Originated from field: Shopify_integration.
New payments in Shopify will also be recorded in Thryv Business Center.
- When a purchase is paid in full from your Shopify store:
- You will receive a notification to your Thryv inbox
- The payment will also be recorded in the payments tab of that client's card in Thryv Business Center.
*NOTE: Partial payments will not sync to Thryv Business Center. Once an order is paid in full it will record in Thryv Business Center.
- If a payment is recorded in Shopify is not associated to a customer, the sync will create a client named, Shopify Customer for Order #. See the example below.
If the client already exists in Thryv Business Center, the sync will only update the client card with the payment.
*NOTE: The unique contact identifier in Thryv Business Center is the client's email. So if a client enters a different email when they check out through your Shopify Store, a new contact will be created in Thryv Business Center. If that happens, it is recommended to merge those client contacts. To learn more about merging client contacts, click here.
