Step 1: Create a Production Partner on Etsy

Due to Etsy’s API limitations, the production partner needs to be set up manually. Here’s how you can do it:

1. Publish a Listing on Etsy:

Start by publishing any product in your Etsy shop. You can create a test product if needed. Make sure your shop is set up first. If you need help with publishing a listing, check out this article for guidance.

💡 You can also add the Production Partner during this step, so you can jump directly to Point 5 after this.

2. If you have an existing product, access the Listing’s Core Details:

Open the published product listing and scroll down to the “Core details” section.

3. Change Who Made the Product:

  • Click Change next to the “Who made it?” section.

  • In the popup, select “Another company or person”.

4. Manage Production Partners:

In the “Production partners for this listing” section, click Change.

5. Create a New Production Partner:

Click Create new production partner.

6. Fill in the Production Partner Form:

  • Production Partner: Enter Subliminator.

  • About Production Partner: Enter: Subliminator empowers merchants with high-quality, all-over print-on-demand products.

  • Location: Enter: China.

  • Why are you working with this partner?: Select: I don’t have the technical ability or equipment to make it entirely by myself.

  • What is your role in the design process?: Select: I design everything myself.

  • What is this partner’s role in the production process?: Select: They do everything for me.

7. Save the Production Partner:

Once all the information is filled in, save your new production partner.

Your Etsy shop is now set up with Subliminator as your production partner.

Step 2: Connect Your Etsy Shop to Subliminator

Now that you’ve set up your production partner, you can connect your Etsy shop to Subliminator:

1. Log in to Your Subliminator Account:

Click on the account icon at the bottom-right corner.

2. Navigate to Shop Settings:

Go to Shop Settings and select Add Etsy Shop. Alternatively, you can use this direct URL: https://app.subliminator.com/#/account/shops.

3. Authorize the Connection:

Follow the prompts to authorize the connection between your Etsy shop and Subliminator.

4. Set Up Shipping Profiles:

Note that the integration won’t create new shipping profiles on Etsy. You will need to select an existing shipping profile when publishing a new product.

Additional Information

Order Sync: Orders are automatically synced every 2 hours. Only paid and non-canceled orders will be registered in Subliminator.

Fulfillment: Orders will be fulfilled as usual using original tracking codes (e.g., DHL, USPS), which ensures accurate tracking information on Etsy.
