Swym Wishlist Plus Help for Shopify: Alerts, Reminders and POS

A wishlist is easy to switch on and easy to ignore. The paid work is making saved items lead somewhere.

Buttons on a customized theme. The App Control Center embed switches on automatically, but heavily edited themes can need CSS selectors for the advanced buttons, a header snippet or a custom-wired button. That is theme customization work.

Who sends which message. Swym Mailer sends timed reminders and stock and price alerts from the dashboard. From Pro, the Klaviyo integration opens a second route. An email marketing expert decides which system owns each message so nobody gets two.

Bringing lists across. Swym's team imports a CSV keyed on customer email and Shopify product ID, and may charge by volume. Cleaning the old export first keeps that bill down.

Consent and guest lists. Guest wishlists ride on a Swym cookie, and the classic button stays hidden until a shopper accepts the cookie banner. EU stores need a decision on Privacy-First mode.

Wishlists at the counter. The POS extension lets staff view and edit customer wishlists and build new ones in store. POS setup experts add the tile and train the team.

When the wizard is enough. On a standard theme with default buttons and Swym Mailer reminders, no outside help is needed.

The useful candidates ask about your email platform and your theme history before they ask for logins.

Ask where each message should come from. A good answer splits reminders, price drop and back-in-stock alerts between Swym Mailer and your email platform, and checks that your plan includes the integration.

Ask how they will test. Swym's own guidance is a theme backup, a draft theme with the embed on, and the embed left off on the live theme until sign-off. Expect the same.

Ask about usage. They should estimate monthly wishlist adds against your plan, because the storefront wishlist pauses when the allowance runs out.

Ask about consent if you sell in Europe. They should know which buttons hide until consent and which trigger a prompt.

Wishlist Plus red flags. Editing live theme code first. Hard-coding buttons the embed already places. Missing the old swymSnippet include on stores installed before 20 September 2023.

A small paid start. Buttons on product and collection pages on a draft theme, plus one reminder email tested from save to inbox. It shows how they work on your theme before the full scope.

Every add counts. A wishlist action is logged each time a shopper adds a product, including Smart Save and Save for later. Removing items doesn't lower the count, and it resets each calendar month.

The cap pauses the wishlist. Exceed your monthly allowance and wishlist functions stop on the storefront until the reset or an upgrade. Extra quota can't be bought as an add-on. Swym warns at 50, 75, 90 and 100 percent, and upgrades apply immediately.

Shopify Plus stores start on Pro. Pro is the minimum plan for Plus stores, at $59.99 a month for 10,000 actions.

Headless needs Premium. The REST API, JavaScript SDK and custom data models come with Premium, $99.99 a month.

Theme switches need a copy step. Dashboard settings apply to any theme, but app embed settings and code edits stay with the old theme. Swym suggests copying the wishlist blocks in settings_data.json across.

In-store has two tiers. POS Lite comes with every paid plan. Browse history, active carts, notes and staff analytics need Advanced, $49 a month per location.

Languages. The listing names seven: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Japanese and Polish.

Most wishlist briefs are some mix of these six jobs. Say which apply before you ask anyone for a price.
