Setup guide

Connect your Squarespace store to Glitz

Connecting Squarespace brings your product catalogue into Glitz, so influencers can pick your products and share them. Shoppers who come through an influencer's link buy on Glitz, and the sale is credited to that influencer.

Shoppers check out on Glitz

Before you start

  • A Glitz company account.
  • A Squarespace site that sells products. Squarespace issues developer API keys on its commerce plans, Business and above.
  • Your site's public address, for example https://www.yourcompany.com.

Steps

  1. 1

    Generate a developer API key

    In your Squarespace site open Settings, Developer Tools, Developer API Keys, and generate a key. Give it read access to Products and Orders. Copy the key. Squarespace shows it only once.

  2. 2

    Connect in Glitz

    In Glitz go to Dashboard, Connect your store, Squarespace. Enter the API key and your public store address, then select Connect and import products.

  3. 3

    Set your commission

    Set the commission for your products in Glitz and choose which influencers can promote them.

What syncs

  • Visible physical and digital products: name, description, price, images, variants and stock. Services and gift cards are not imported.
  • Glitz checks your store every six hours. Press Sync now on the Connect your store page to pull product changes straight away.
  • A product you hide or delete in Squarespace is hidden on Glitz.

What stays yours in Glitz

  • The commission you pay influencers on each product. New products arrive at 0%, so set your rate before influencers start promoting them.
  • Which influencers can promote each product.
  • The product category on Glitz. It is taken from your store on the first import, and after that you change it in Glitz.
  • Products you hide in Glitz stay hidden, even if they are live in your store.

If you disconnect, your products are hidden on Glitz. Nothing is deleted. Connect the same store again and they come back with their commission and influencers in place.

How sales are credited to influencers

Shoppers who come through an influencer's link buy on Glitz. The influencer's code travels with the order, so the sale is credited to them automatically.

The order appears in your Glitz dashboard under Orders. It is not created in your store. You ship it and add the tracking number in Glitz.

You are paid your share after the 30-day refund window. The influencer's commission is held for the same 30 days.

If something goes wrong

“Squarespace rejected that key”
Check the key has read access to Products and Orders, and that the site is on a Business plan or above. Generate a new key if needed.
“The store address must start with https://”
Use the full https:// address of your site.
“We could not open a product page on your store”
Your catalogue connected, but a product page did not open. This happens when the site is password protected or not published. Shoppers can still buy on Glitz.

Questions

Where do shoppers pay?

On Glitz. Payments are processed by Stripe and you are paid your share after the 30-day refund window.

Who ships the order?

You do. The order appears in your Glitz dashboard under Orders, where you add the tracking number.

What about orders placed directly on my own store?

Orders that include your synced products are read back into Glitz for your records. They are credited to an influencer only if your checkout passes the influencer's code onto the order. That takes a small change on your store. Ask us and we set it up with you.
