We will guide you with all the support you need.
• For a full guide on how to create a store and post
products for sale, see our store
guide • Your new store will be set to Private by default. You can connect your
store to your Shopify-Account, add products or collections, and manage
your store info in private mode. Click the toggle to switch from a
private to a public store. Public stores can be seen on our website if
you'd like to start selling your products via our site as well.
• Head to the Shopify website > sign up (if you haven't already) and open the Shopify App Store located in the left hand menu > Search for 'Contrado' and click on the text or icon > click 'Add app' > log in to your Bags of Love dropshipping account via Shopify > Click 'Sync'.
Please note: Syncing your Bags of Love and Shopify store is only ever necessary once - when you connect both stores for the first time. Now you're connected, it's time to get creating!
Unfortunately not at this time. We hope to provide this in the future,
but for now, it's only one Bags of Love store and one Shopify account at a
time. If you have multiple Bags of Love stores, you can link each one to a
different Shopify account. But only one Bags of Love store can connect to
one Shopify account.
If you run into an error while connecting your store and Shopify
account, it may be for this reason. Make sure you don't have a different
Bags of Love store linked to your Shopify account before connecting.
When connecting your Bags of Love and Shopify stores you can choose whether you would like to manage uploading products, prices, and the name and description of your products via Bags of Love or Shopify. If you change your mind you can change the settings any time via the 'My Stores' tab in your account under 'Edit'.

Yes.
Set pricing to Bags of Love mode and use our price slider when creating a product to raise price and profit margin. We start you off with a base recommended retail price which works really well, but use our pricing widget to set the price of your product higher where you think you have added value. This is great for earning extra profit if you have a great premium design that your customers are prepared to pay that bit extra for. This works especially well for limited editions and exclusive designs.
On rare occasions, we’ll need to increase the price of a product due to circumstances outside our control (ie. inflation, unexpected delivery costs, etc.). Rest assured that if we resort to increasing a product’s price, it’s because we have exhausted all other options.
Our top priority is providing the best quality product for the most reasonable price. Sometimes we encounter an unexpected situation and need to quickly adapt. This may involve changing couriers, sourcing new materials, or revising the way we make a product. We will try to cover as much of the extra cost as we can, but there might be a slight price rise to compensate for the changes.
We don’t enjoy increasing product prices and avoid it as much as we possibly can. If you sell our products, we will make every effort to notify you of a price change so your business is not negatively affected.
For Drop-Shipping Account holders, here are some tips if your store is affected by a price change:
If you manage pricing on our site, you don’t need to change anything as the price will automatically be updated in your store. You may want to consider communicating with customers if necessary.
If you manage pricing on your drop-shipping store, you will get an email from us with more details about the price change. Please review all of your drop-shipping prices in light of this change to ensure you’re still happy with your profit margins.
Increase your product’s price to match ours.
Leave your price as is if the change doesn’t impact your margins too much.
Split the cost by increasing both the product and delivery cost slightly to lessen the impact (you can do this in your drop-shipping platform’s settings).
Add lower-cost products to your store to balance your selection.
Add lower-cost options to your product if available.
We ship worldwide, including NZ, AUS, Europe, the US and the UK. You can see more about our delivery information here.

All our 450+ products are made here in our facility, not scattered over fragmented fulfillment centres with different quality standards, print variation, or disparate service levels. One in-house facility, one focus, one service.
Currently our interface is only compatible with Shopify, however if you're interested in alternative eCommerce platforms do let us know - we're always looking to expand our offering.
