Connect Printful to your Bandzoogle store
To connect your Bandzoogle ‘Store’ feature to the Printful store of your choice, you can follow these steps. Once you have successfully connected to Printful, your products will continue to sync unless you disconnect the integration.
Note: When you create your Printful store, be sure to select the ‘Manual order platform/API’ option, which works best with Bandzoogle.
- From the “Selling Tools” tab, click ‘Settings’ on the left and then click ‘Printful’
- Click ‘Connect to Printful’
- Log in to your Printful account
- Choose the Printful Store you’d like to connect to and then click the ‘Authorize’ button to allow Bandzoogle access to the store’s products. If you only have one Printful account created, you’ll go straight to the authorization step.
Notes:
In your Printful account, be sure that your Printful Store currency is set to the same currency as your Bandzoogle Payment Settings.
As of July 1, 2021, Printful will add VAT for orders shipped to the EU. This tax will be automatically applied to your Printful fulfillment charge - you can build this fee into your item’s final price to account for the charge. To learn more, please read Printful’s ‘How VAT is applied to EU bound orders’ article.
