#SellOnTwitter with Shopify
Over the last year, we’ve made it possible for you to sell directly on two of the biggest social media platforms on the planet—Facebook and Pinterest. Today, we’re adding Twitter to that list, making Shopify the first and only ecommerce platform to allow merchants to sell across all three major social networks.
Twitter and Shopify have partnered to make “Buy now” buttons available to Shopify merchants, making it easier for them to get their products into their followers' hands. The social media giant started testing their buy buttons late last year with major retailers and celebrities like the Home Depot, Burberry, Pharrell Williams, and Demi Lovato. Today they’re opening it up to small and medium-sized businesses through Shopify.

How do Twitter buy buttons work?

The new buy buttons make it easy for the 300+ million potential shoppers on Twitter to discover and buy products without leaving the social network. From their computer or mobile phones, shoppers can click the “Buy now” button within a Tweet to view product information like size, color, and style. Then they can enter their shipping and payment information. Once they confirm that information, their order details appear in Shopify, just like the orders from your online store.
Here’s how easy it is for a shopper to buy on Twitter:
Why should I sell using Twitter’s buy buttons? Chances are you already use Twitter to engage shoppers, with the ultimate goal of sending them to your online store so you can make a sale. With Twitter buy buttons, you’ll be able to make that sale as you interact with your customer in real-time. For example, if you recommend a product, they can buy it on the spot with just a few clicks.
Additionally, Twitter gives you direct access to influencers and celebrity trendsetters who can help you get your product noticed. Now when an influencer tweets your product, it will drive product discovery and give shoppers a frictionless way to make their purchase.

How can I start selling on Twitter?

If you have an online store with Shopify, you can start selling your products on Twitter, at no additional cost, by adding the new Twitter sales channel. Once connected to Twitter, any product that’s ever been Tweeted from your online store will automatically include a buy button, and shoppers can immediately start buying from your tweets. All Twitter orders, as well as product and customer details will automatically be synchronized with Shopify, just like all your other sales channels.
If you aren’t yet a Shopify merchant and would like to sell on Twitter, you’ll need to sign up for an online store with Shopify and then add the Twitter sales channel.
We’ll be rolling out Twitter buy buttons to merchants over the coming weeks, but you can add the Twitter sales channel to your Shopify account now. For the time being only merchants and shoppers from the United States can use Twitter buy buttons. We are working with the team at Twitter to expand this to more countries.
