Step 1 – Welcome to Custlo

Tell Us Who Is Setting Up the App

When you first open Custlo, you'll see a quick question so we can personalize your setup experience.

You will see two options:

I'm the Store Owner
Choose this if you own the Shopify store and are setting up Custlo for your own business.

Developer / Agency
Choose this only if you are a developer or agency installing Custlo for a client.

👉 Most merchants should select I'm the Store Owner.

What you need to do

  1. Open your Shopify Admin

  2. Go to Apps → Custlo

  3. Select I'm the Store Owner

  4. Click Continue

This step takes only 10 seconds.


Step 2 – Custlo Detects Your Store Type

Great News! Your Store Is Compatible

Custlo automatically checks your Shopify store and detects which Customer Account system your store uses.

If you see:

Detected: New Customer Accounts

That means your store supports all advanced Custlo features, including:

• Cashback and store credits
• Post-purchase upsells
• Customer order editing
• Custom forms and data collection
• A powerful customer account dashboard

Since Shopify uses New Customer Accounts by default for new stores, most merchants will already be ready to go.
