Steps to Connect Printful To WooCommerce

Here are the simple steps you need to follow:

The first step is to log into your Printful and click on ‘Connect to an eCommerce platform’.
You will be directed to a page with different eCommerce platforms. In this case, we will be using WooCommerce as the platform.
You will be provided with two options. You can either set up a store via SiteGround or set up an existing store. We recommend choosing the second option even if you haven’t built the store yet.
For you to connect Printful to WooCommerce, you are required to enable REST API and change the Permalink structure. We have already enabled REST API in the WooCommerce Settings.
If you want to change the permalink structure, go to your WordPress Dashboard > Settings > Permalinks.
Select the Post Name permalink option. Remember to save changes.
The next step is to integrate Printful and WooCommerce. We first need to install and set up the WooCommerce-Printful Integration plugin. Go to Plugins > Add New.
Search for ‘Printful Integration for WooCommerce’, install and activate it:
Once it is activated, go to Printful from the WordPress Dashboard and hit ‘Connect’
Click on Approve to authenticate the connection. This will allow Printful to link your account to your WooCommerce store and import and sync product data.
You can now start adding your custom products to your WooCommerce store.

Conclusion

By now, you should be able to connect your store with Printful. As you have seen, it is not a complicated process. It is super easy as WooCommerce gives you a robust eCommerce mechanism.

On the other hand, Printful handles all inventory management and shipping concerns. It is also important to properly select the specific type, material, sizes, colors, and location availability when adding the products.
