Can you integrate QuickBooks with Shopify?
The simple answer is Yes, you can.
But as you may have already discovered, Shopify and QuickBooks do not offer an inbuilt option to integrate both platforms – much to your frustration. So, you will be wondering how exactly you integrate Shopify and QuickBooks.
Here is your answer….
Methods to integrate QuickBooks and Shopify (or Shopify plus)
Before you look externally for an integration solution it is crucial to understand your business needs and budget, however, let us talk through the options available.
Bespoke Integrations
One option to consider is a bespoke integration. This requires you to outsource a developer to design and implement a custom integration for Shopify and QuickBooks – Unless you have a team of developers at your disposal.
A bespoke integration is an effective way to get your integration performing exactly to your business needs. Although, without internal coding knowledge your integration cannot be altered or modified should your requirements change. Not just this but hiring a developer is very costly, which is not ideal for businesses on a tight budget.
Integration applications
These are what you often find within your QuickBooks or Shopify marketplace.
Integration applications offer a simple and very cost-effective way to transfer data between your ecommerce and accounting systems, although these applications are often basic and only provide a 1-way integration with no option to customise or add more platforms.
Ideal if all you want to do is transfer orders from Shopify to QuickBooks but too basic for those requiring greater functionality.
There is, however, another option. iPaaS.
An iPaaS – or integration Platform as a Service – is a platform built and deployed within the cloud, integrating both on-premises and cloud-based business systems. With an iPaaS, users have control to develop their own integration flows that connect their chosen applications and deploy them without installing any hardware or using complex coding. Making them easy to use for anyone in the business.
Not only are iPaaS platforms cost-effective they are flexible in nature equipping them to manage any increase in the amount of data transferred or the number of systems integrated. Serving you throughout your business journey.
Having a platform that is not only cost-effective and user-friendly but offers the ability to add integrations or customise current integrations without any coding is a no-brainer for any SME.
