2) Approve the permissions

Here's how we use the permissions:

  • Customers: we need access to customers so participants can be added to your Shopify customer list and synced with integrations such as Klaviyo and other email marketing tools.
  • Orders: we use order data to track sales, attribute them to giveaways and reward entries when purchases are made.
  • Products: we read product details so you can set up "Make a Purchase" rules, for example buying a specific product or collection to earn entries.
  • Online Store: required to embed the giveaway widget and make sure it displays properly on your storefront.
