Installing Duplify

Learn how to install Duplify and set up your stores for data transfer.

Duplify lets you copy data from a source store to one or more destination stores on Shopify. The source store holds the original data, and destination stores receive the copied data.

Note

All destination stores need to be active Shopify stores, though only the source store requires a paid Duplify plan.

Getting started

To get started with Duplify, you need a source store and a destination store.

• Source store: This is the store you want to copy data from. It is the origin of the data. The source store requires a paid Duplify plan.

• Destination store: This is where your data is being copied to. It is the receiver of the data. The destination store requires a paid Shopify plan.
