Quick answer

How does Owncart work with Shopify?

Owncart has a two-way integration with Shopify. Your products, prices, variants, images, and collections sync from Shopify to your Owncart ordering channels: mobile ordering website, WhatsApp chat ordering, and QR menus. Orders placed by customers on WhatsApp or web are created automatically in your Shopify admin with customer details, and stock levels stay updated in real time. 0% Owncart commission.

FAQ

Shopify questions

Something else? Ask us on WhatsApp.

Can I connect my existing Shopify store?

Yes. Owncart connects directly to your existing Shopify store via secure API integration. Your products, variants and images sync cleanly without rebuilding your catalog.

How do orders placed on WhatsApp show up in Shopify?

When a customer places and pays for an order on WhatsApp or your mobile ordering website, Owncart creates a corresponding order in your Shopify admin with customer details, line items, and payment status.

Does Owncart charge a commission on Shopify sales?

No. Owncart charges 0% commission. You pay a flat ₹10,000 per outlet per year for the Restaurant plan. Payment gateway fees apply, and whatsApp charges are billed per delivered message, at the rates in our Message Price File, which we share separately. It's never a cut of your sale.

Can I sell packaged food, meal kits and merchandise?

Yes. You can sell prepared dishes for immediate delivery, pre-booked meal boxes, or packaged retail food products from the same catalog.

Does it also work with Petpooja or other POS systems?

Yes. Restaurants running Petpooja or Positeasy can sync their POS alongside Shopify so food orders print as kitchen KOTs while inventory stays unified. See Owncart × Petpooja and POS integrations.

How do delivery and rider dispatches work?

You can fulfill orders with your own delivery staff, or enable Adloggs for on-demand rider dispatch with real-time distance quotes. See Owncart × Adloggs.
