What can you do with Shopify's Bulk Account Invite Sender? Explain how to use and benefits
When the e -commerce site is transferred or site renewal, product data and customer information (member data) must also be migrated. However, the way of handling data changes depending on the migration destination platform, which may take time to work.
In recent years, SHOPIFY has been popular as EC sites, and there are many cases where the conventional EC site shifts from SHOPIFY. Even in this case, it is necessary to migrate product data and customer information.
When migrating data to SHOPIFY, it is recommended to use the "Bulk Account Invite Sender" app. In this article, we will explain the outline and usage of Bulk Account Invite Sender, including information about the migration to SHOPIFY.
To migrate customer information from other EC platforms
Data migration in the transfer of EC sites may be called the migration of the cart system (cart transition). A cart system refers to a mechanism that sells products on the Internet, and includes functions such as product and customer management and point systems.
When operating an EC site in -house, it is basically necessary to introduce a cart system. Here, we will explain the flow and mechanism of the cart transfer to SHOPIFY.
Must have your member reset your password
Transferring customer information in SHOPIFY can be imported in a CSV file if you organize the data according to SHOPIFY. However, only the password cannot be transferred as it is because there are no items in CSV.
Therefore, when the cart is transferred to SHOPIFY and the customer information is transferred, the customer (member) will notify the password reset. We will explain in detail how to get the password reset.
Flow to shift carts to SHOPIFY
The main flow of migrating carts to SHOPIFY is as follows.
・ Setup of EC site
・ Migration of products and customer information
・ Migration of order data
・ Notification to users
・ Setting of shipping and payment functions
・ Domain settings
In the above, products and customer information are important items for cart transitions. Let's take a look at the rough flow when you do not use an app that supports migration.
1. Download CSV of sample products fromshopify
2. Adjust the data of the cart system according to SHOPIFY
3. Import the adjusted CSV into the shop's store
1. Download customer information from the cart system
2. Download CSV of sample customer information fromshopific
3. Adjust the customer information of the cart system according to SHOPIFY
4. Import the adjusted CSV into the shop's store
5. Notify your customer of resetting the password
When migrating customer information to SHOPIFY, an account is required
It is already mentioned that SHOPIFY cannot migrate password data. When the customer information is migrated to SHOPIFY, the customer is not a formal member yet. On SHOPIFY, customers are recognized as members by enabling accounts. The resetting of the password required to migrate customer information will not have a difference from general membership registration.
The SHOPIFY customer management screen does not display any customer's account information that has not been enabled. The "Send account invitation" button is displayed at the top right of the screen.
There are two ways to reset the password when the customer information is migrated to SHOPIFY
There are two types of password reset methods required to migrate customer information.
・ How to notify the member to reset the password from the customer management screen
When you open the individual member information on the SHOPIFY customer management screen, the item "Send an account invitation" is displayed in the upper right corner of the screen. By clicking, you can send your password reset email to your customer.
This method must be handled one by one. Therefore, it can be said that there are few customers who need to send emails.
・ How to send emails for password resetting to customers using the app
SHOPIFY offers many apps that support the installed functions, and there are also apps that enable invited emails in bulk transmission. If you use the app, even if the number of customers who need email sending is large, it will automatically respond, so it will not take time.
The recommended application that can send invitation emails at once is the Bulk Account Invite Sender.

How to use Bulk Account Invite Sender
After grasping the features of the Bulk Account Invite Sender, check the flow of actually using the app to send a password resetting email.
1. Install the app
First, install the Bulk Account Invite Sender app. Select "Add an app" from the "SHOPIFY App Store" page and press "Install" on the installation screen. This completes the installation.
After installing the app, edit the e -mail to the customer and send it to prevent misplacing trusts.
2. Edit "Invitation of Customer Account"
To edit the email content, press "Click here" displayed after installation to display the edit screen. The first email will be rewritten as a template in SHOPIFY's "Invitation of Customer Account", which encourages you to reset your password.
Edit "Email Subject" and "E -mail body (HTML)" on the editing screen. Write the subject so that the content is easy to understand, such as "Information on password resetting". The text is{% capture email_title %}and{% endcapture %}The title is described in the meantime.{% capture email_body %}and{% endcapture %}In between, let's write the text of the email.
It is also effective to add coupon code to email to encourage customers to reset the password.
3. Describe the renewal announcement
There is no rule on the text of the e -mail to edit, but it is a good idea to write the site renewal notice during editing.
Since the template email is received after creating an account, if the default remains, the site renewal may not be known and the customer may be confused. Let's list the renewal announcements and the need to reset the password.
4. Send a test
After completing the email editing, do the test sending. Return to the app screen from SHOPIFY's "App Management", enter an enabled email address in "Send a Test Email to" and press "Send Test".
The e -mail address for testing the test must be a destination that has not been enabled by the customer registered. Before sending the test, prepare a customer registered e -mail address for the test.
5. Actually send an email
If you do not have any problems by sending a test, press "Next" to move to the mail transmission screen and select the number of accounts to send. You can check the usage fee for Bulk Account Invite Sender on the screen at the time of transmission. After that, select "Approve the claim" from the SHOPIFY management screen, and the batch transmission is completed.
The site renewal announcement will be sent at the time of release, so you will rarely use it in the future. Return the template of the e -mail edited to reset the password to the default.
