🔁 Real-Time Syncing with Shopify
Zelph syncs your product and variant data with all connected Shopify stores:
- ✅ Two-way sync: Changes made in Zelph or Shopify are reflected both ways
- A product can be published to multiple stores (e.g. UK + EU) with a single inventory source
- When a variant sells on one store, inventory is updated on all stores
Example:
You create 1 Medium Black T-Shirt and sync it to:
- Shopify UK
Shopify EU
If it sells on the UK store, Zelph automatically deducts the inventory across all stores.
🔒 Subscribed Inventory
If you're a retailer subscribed to a supplier's product, please note:
You cannot edit the inventory quantity — only the supplier can adjust their stock.
You can still:
- Set your own selling price
- List the product on your own stores
