Check out the full Smart by Wunderkind Onboarding Guide for the all of your onboarding instructions.
Overview
Installing the Wunderkind Shopify app is the first step in getting started with Smart by Wunderkind. This document is a step-by-step guide on how to download and configure the app to suit your desired settings. After configuring the app, you'll be directed to the Wunderkind Platform to finalize the Smart by Wunderkind onboarding process, where you'll set up your recommended strategies (e.g. abandonment emails, onsite email capture, etc.).
What is the Wunderkind Shopify App?
The Wunderkind Shopify App makes it easy to get started with Smart by Wunderkind by handling tasks like installing Wunderkind tags and pixels and setting up website tracking.
Install the App
- Log into your Shopify Store.
- Navigate to the Wunderkind App listing at https://apps.shopify.com/wunderkind. Please note that you must use a direct link; you cannot currently discover the app within the Shopify App Store.
- Install the application.
- Q: Why do I need a link to install the app? Currently in beta, the app is "unlisted," meaning it’s not searchable on the Shopify App Store just yet. The beta program enables us to gather feedback and improve the experience before a public release. Listed or unlisted, both versions meet the same requirements for a great user experience. By joining the trial, you quickly access the Wunderkind services without any risk to your store.
- Please note that the Shopify App is not compatible with headless sites.
Create an account with Wunderkind
-
Currently in beta, the app is completely free to install. If you haven't already set up payments in Shopify, you will still need to enter your credit card information to meet the Shopify billing API requirements. Wunderkind will never charge you without your consent.
Enable the Wunderkind Tag in your Shopify Theme
-
From the homepage of the Wunderkind App, click “Enable Wunderkind Tag”. This will take you into the App Embeds section of your themes to turn on the tag.
-
Press “Save” in the upper right hand corner of the screen.
- You have successfully placed your tag! Please note that if you want to change themes, you will need to re-enable the tag in your new theme. You can do this prior to making the theme switch.
Enable the Wunderkind product feature toggles
- The next step is to enable the appropriate toggles in your Wunderkind App settings. To access these toggles, select “Apps” in the left hand navigation bar, and then select “Wunderkind”. The Wunderkind App homepage will load in Shopify.
- From there, click on the “Settings” option on the left hand side navigation bar under “Wunderkind” (not your Shopify settings).
- “Enable Checkout Experience” and “Enable Onsite Experience” should always be checked. If they are not, please click “Turn On” to enable them.
- “Enable Product Feeds” should be selected if you plan to run Wunderkind Catalog experiences (e.g. back in stock, low in stock, or price drop).
(Optional) Excluding Products from Wunderkind Campaigns
- If you would like to exclude specific collections or products from your Wunderkind sends, follow the directions below. Please note that excluding products may impact performance. We recommend excluding items like gift cards.
- To exclude Collections from Wunderkind Sends, select the collections from the “Settings” page of the Wunderkind App.
-
To exclude individual products from Wunderkind Sends, edit the “Wunderkind Product Attributes” on the individual product page.
- Navigate to the "Products" section within the Shopify store and click into the product that you want to exclude.
- In the top right hand side of the product, click "more actions".
- Click Wunderkind Product Attributes.
- Click "Exclude this product from Wunderkind Marketing"
- Click Save.
Finalize your Smart by Wunderkind app set-up
- Select the "Finish your Wunderkind setup (self-service beta)" button at the top of the page.
- This will direct you to the Smart by Wunderkind onboarding process in the Wunderkind Platform, where you will be able to configure your email integration, set up your creatives, and turn the campaigns live.
