# Connect Printful to Shopify Retail POS and automate your tasks

MESA's Printful to Shopify Retail POS integration is the fastest way to sync data between the two — without touching a line of code. Choose which fields to send, how they're formatted, and when the sync happens. Start with a pre-built template, customize it with AI, or build something completely unique in under 10 minutes.

## Why integrate Printful with Shopify Retail POS

The Printful to Shopify Retail POS integration helps you sync data, automate manual tasks, and keep your stack aligned — without writing code.

### Send Shopify orders to Printful for fulfillment automatically

When an order is placed in Shopify, MESA routes it to Printful with the right product details, variants, and shipping information already attached. Your print-on-demand fulfillment starts the moment a customer checks out without anyone manually submitting the order.

### Keep Shopify product and variant data in sync with Printful

When a product is added, updated, or repriced in Shopify, MESA reflects the change in Printful. Your fulfillment partner always works from accurate product data without a manual sync step between your store and your print provider.

### Update Shopify the moment Printful ships an order

When Printful generates a tracking number and marks an order as shipped, MESA writes the update back to Shopify and triggers any downstream actions — a Klaviyo notification, a customer tag, a loyalty point. Your post-purchase workflow starts the moment Printful ships, not when someone checks the dashboard.

### Unify in-store and online customer records automatically

When a customer makes a purchase at your POS, MESA updates their Shopify customer profile with the transaction details. Your online and in-store history live in one record without anyone reconciling them manually.

### Keep inventory accurate the moment a sale happens in store

When a product is sold at your POS, MESA updates stock levels across your connected tools — your online store, your warehouse system, your ops dashboard. Your inventory reflects reality in real time, not at the end of a sync cycle.

### Trigger loyalty and marketing workflows from in-store purchases

When a customer buys in store, MESA kicks off the right next step — enrolling them in a Klaviyo flow, updating a Smile.io record, applying a Shopify tag. Your in-person sales feed the same retention engine as your online ones.

## Build any Printful and Shopify Retail POS automation

MESA helps you connect apps to automate repetitive tasks. A trigger is an event that starts a workflow, and actions are the steps that occur when it's running.
