Frequently Asked Questions

Is Handshake really free to use?

Sure is! Handshake has zero fees or commissions. As a part of the Shopify family, we believe in making commerce better for everyone. That’s why we focus on building the best wholesale tools for our community, instead of charging them.

Who covers the shipping costs?

Shipping is paid by retailers, unless we’re running a free shipping promotion on the Handshake marketplace. In that case, shipping will be on us!

Once you’ve set up your store, you can either apply a flat shipping rate or add up to three different rates (based on the total amount of the order).

Shipping rates on Handshake are specific to orders you get from Handshake.com, giving you even more control and flexibility!

How are orders handled?

Just like you’re used to handling your B2C orders. Simply filter Handshake orders by the sales channel on Shopify and make sure to fulfill them within the timeframe indicated in your shipping and returns information. And that’s it!

Can I still join if I don’t have a Shopify store?

Of course! Just head to Shopify.com, enter your email address, and start your free trial. Install the Handshake app once your store is active. Find out if you’re eligible by checking out the rest of our FAQ.
