• On-site checkout: Viewers can buy your products without leaving YouTube.

How To Connect Your YouTube Channel To Shopify

YouTube is introducing an easy way to link Shopify stores with channels, which allows content creators and businesses to feature their products across YouTube.

This launch makes it possible for eligible channels to showcase their merchandise and products, which viewers can buy without leaving YouTube.

This differs from previous integrations as viewers can purchase directly on YouTube rather than visiting an external link.

All channels that meet the following criteria are eligible to connect their Shopify store to YouTube:

• Channel is approved for monetization
• Creator is based in an eligible country/region
• Channel has 10,000 subscribers or is an official artist channel
• Channel’s audience is not set as ‘made for kids’
• Channel doesn’t violate YouTube’s monetization policies
