Selling on Social Media

[Richard1979]

I have a website through WooCommerce with payment through Square (merchant).  I would like to sell on social media and pay directly to Square.  All of  my inventory is controlled through Square.  I know how to establish the links on Square, but confused if I need an online Square store to sell on social media.  Anyone have advice?

Hello @Richard1979

Square offers you tools to sell your items on social networks like Facebook and Instagram through Square Online. If you have Facebook and/or Instagram pages for your business, you can connect your Facebook account to create ad campaigns, sync your item library to Facebook, and allow visitors to shop from your Facebook and Instagram pages.

You’ll need to first create a free Square Online Site and then complete the one-time setup process outlined below before you can use Facebook Shops across the Facebook and Instagram channels:

1. Connect your Facebook account.

2. Select Facebook features that are relevant to your business

3. Select your Facebook Business Manager Account

4. Select your Ad Account

5. Select a Facebook Pixel.

6. Confirm settings.

Note: In order to sell your items on these platforms, you'll need to review and follow Facebook's commerce policies and guidelines.
