Switching from manual pricing to Synq


Moving from spreadsheets or manual pricing to Synq is straightforward, but there is one important thing to know first: Synq manages the products it creates, so you re-add your cards through the app rather than importing your existing listings.

The one thing to understand

Synq does not scan or import your existing Shopify products. It creates and prices products you add from its built-in catalog. So to have Synq manage a card you already list, you re-add it through Synq. This is what lets Synq keep it matched to market data and priced correctly. See what Synq writes to Shopify.

Your switch checklist

  1. Install Synq and start your 7-day free trial.
  2. Pick your games and set your collections so new products land in the right place.
  3. Set your pricing once: a strategy, discounts for each condition, and optional price rules.
  4. Set up a product template so titles, descriptions and optional extras are consistent.
  5. Re-add your best sellers first. Search the catalog, pick conditions and stock, and let Synq create the products.
  6. Review and apply prices with Sync all prices, then add the rest of your catalog in batches.

What about my old listings?

Leave them, or remove the ones you replace with products Synq created to avoid duplicates. Synq will not touch listings it did not create, so nothing changes until you re-add a card through the app.

Start small

You do not have to migrate everything at once. Begin with a few hundred cards, confirm your pricing looks right, then expand.

Frequently asked questions

Will Synq import my existing Shopify products?
No. Synq only manages products it creates. It does not scan or import your existing listings. To have Synq price an existing card, re-add it through the app so Synq can manage it.
Do I have to move everything at once?
No. Start with a batch of your best-selling cards, get your strategy and rules dialed in, then keep adding. There is no need to migrate the whole catalog on day one.
