Intro to Aspire Gift Orders

[Shopify Only] Learn when to use the Gift Orders feature and how to best enable it!

Written by Ana Lopez

Difference between Shopify Fulfillment Methods

Product Fulfillment: Also known as Gift Orders, this option allows you to create orders on behalf of creators. If the products your creators are receiving are predetermined, this is likely a good choice for you!
​

Product Catalogs: This option allows you to build a catalog of items for creators to make their own product selection with certain criteria such as # of items, order value, or more advanced conditions.


Step 1: Gather Creator Addresses

This step is required and can be done in a few ways:

  • Via Application Page: Recommended: Add the Address 1, 2, City, State, Postal Code, and Country form fields.

  • Member Information workflow stage: Add this stage to your campaign ahead of your Product Fulfillment stage.

  • Manual Add or Import: For existing partners, you can add the information to their Member Profile in Aspire or import in bulk through a CSV file.

📌 Note: Make sure you use Aspire's standard address fields. If one of them is replaced with a custom field (for example, your own "Country" field), orders can't be created for those creators.


Step 2: Select Product & Submit Orders

Once creators are in your Product Fulfillment workflow stage:

  1. Open the Send Product Order tab.

  2. Select one or more creators and click Create Orders. To create an order for a single creator, you can also click Create Order on their row.

  3. Select Product: Choose your store (if you have more than one connected), search by product name or SKU, and select the products to send. Click Next.

  4. Compose Message: Customize the email your creators will receive, then click Next: Confirm Order. You can also click Continue without Message.

  5. Confirm: Review the products and quantities. Optionally, select Send Shopify receipt to members and add an internal note. Then select a Shipping Line.

  6. Click Create Order.

Once created, orders move to the Processing Order tab, and then to Product in Transit once they ship.
​

Send Products Automatically

Sending the same product to all your creators? Use the Gift Products automation action to create orders automatically. Choose the products and a shipping line, and optionally turn on an email to notify the creator. For example: when a member is added to your campaign → Gift Products.
​

📌 Note: Make sure your application form collects the full shipping address. If any address fields are missing, Aspire will show a warning while you set up the automation.


Good to Know

  • Every order created by Aspire in Shopify is tagged AspireIQ and uses a 100% discount code (ASPIREIQ_100), so you can easily filter gifting orders in your reports.

  • The 100% discount applies to products only. If the shipping line you select has a cost, it will show on the order.

  • Shopify draft products can't be sent through Gift Orders at this time. To gift draft products, use a Product Catalog.
