Installing NINEMAGS in Shopify

This guide explains how to install the NINEMAGS® app in your Shopify store, what permissions are required, where to find the app after installation, and what changes in your store once the app is installed.

Step 1. Open the NINEMAGS connection page

1. Go to:

   https://app.ninemags.com/apps

2. Open the Shopify Guide section:

3. Navigate to Domains

   

   
   

4. Look at all domains that you have there, which are ending on .myshopify.com

   

   
   
5. If you have 2 domains, including one that has a random string of letters and number, in this case your ID is ab12c3-de.myshopify.com, enter it as ab12c3-de

And if you do not

6. If the only .myshopify domain is mystore.myshopify.com, enter it as mystore

2. Domain

After filling in all fields, click Connect.

Step 3. Confirm successful Shopify connection

If all data was entered correctly, you will see a confirmation screen with:

This means your Shopify store is successfully linked to NINEMAGS.

Step 4. Install the NINEMAGS app in Shopify

Next, install the app in your Shopify admin.

1. Log in to your Shopify admin.

How to confirm everything is connected correctly
