Works with Shopify
Keep your Shopify shop. Run your nursery from one place.
If you already sell on Shopify, you don't have to switch. Connect your shop to HortiOwl and your stock, orders, refunds and accounts stay in step with the rest of your nursery — trade orders, the till and the phone included.
One set of stock figures
Shopify shows what's actually on your benches. A plant sold on a trade order, at the till or over the phone comes off Shopify straight away, so you're not selling the same plant twice.
- Hold back a few of each plant so your shop can't sell the last ones
- Keep back more on the plants you need for trade
- Bundles and packs sell from the stock they're made of
Shopify sales arrive as finished, paid orders
Every Shopify sale appears in HortiOwl alongside your other orders, already paid, with the stock taken from the right batches — so plant passports print and traceability is there if anyone asks.
Anything that needs a second look — a product that isn't set up yet, or a sale that doesn't add up — is put to one side for your team rather than guessed at.
Refunds become credit notes in one click
When you refund a customer on Shopify, HortiOwl shows the refund and its reason, and turns it into a credit note when you're ready. If the plants came back, the stock goes back to the batch it came from.
Add products to Shopify from HortiOwl
Choose which products go on Shopify — one at a time, a whole category, or hundreds at once — and they're added with their price, VAT, barcode, description and photo, on the sales channels you choose.
- Change a price or photo in HortiOwl and Shopify follows
- Switch a product off and it goes to draft on Shopify, not deleted
- Already have products on Shopify? Bring them into HortiOwl instead
Sell plants before they're ready
Let customers order plants that are still growing on, with the date they'll be ready shown in your shop. When the stock is ready, it's set aside for those orders first.

Questions
No. You keep your Shopify shop, theme and checkout. HortiOwl keeps the stock, orders and paperwork behind it in step with the rest of your nursery.
HortiOwl checks every night for any sales it missed and records them, and catches the stock figures up at the same time.
Yes. Both sell from the same stock, so a plant sold in one comes off the other.
Generally yes, if they're sold online to a final user. Because Shopify sales come from real batches in HortiOwl, the passport details are there when you need them.
It's an optional add-on to your HortiOwl plan. Mention it when you book a demo and we'll set it up with you and include it in your quote.
