A fitting with no order
Nothing connected the fitting to the order.
Setmore to Shopify automation for shops that offer fittings, consultations, repairs and pickups by appointment
Shopify gives every order an internal ID as well as the number shown to the customer, and the number is the one people type into a booking form. BoldBellows records the Setmore customer key, the appointment key and any order number the customer gave at booking, matches the customer in Shopify by email and stores the internal order ID, never the number shown on screen, then builds the Setmore to Shopify integration for shops that serve people in person: the booking is matched to the customer, a next-visit metafield and a tag are written so email flows and staff can act on them, a fitting or pickup is noted on the order the customer named, and a paid service or deposit can be billed through a draft order. The shop and the diary finally describe the same customer.
From $965, paid once. Connect Setmore to Shopify.
B2Before and after
A customer orders a suit online and books a fitting. The shop has one record, the booking page has another, and the tailor reads neither. A typed order number with a hash in front fails a lookup, a repeat customer becomes a second profile, and a deposit for a paid service is taken in one tool and forgotten in the other. Staff end up asking customers to repeat what they already entered.
Sound familiar?
Nothing connected the fitting to the order.
The visible number was used as an ID.
The booking email differed by a letter.
Payment sat in the booking system only.
The profile did not carry it.
Nothing tagged the customer after a booking.

D4How it works
Three moves: decide whether it counts, locate the customer, then write and prove it.
The route reads the Setmore record behind the event and confirms the booking change meets the documented rule.
The booking is read, the customer is found in Shopify by email, and any order number is looked up to its internal ID.
The next-visit metafield and tag are written, the order gets a note, and a paid service creates a draft order once.
E5Inside your store
Start with Core, which admits events and claims identity; Scale then shapes the customer; Stewardship checks Shopify long after go-live.
Core
Lets only the agreed booking changes through and keeps a reason for every one it stops, on the Setmore to Shopify route.
Core
Maintains the link between a Setmore record and its Shopify twin, so updates land in the right place.
Core
Cuts each Setmore payload down to the fields Shopify needs before the customer is prepared.
Scale
Reads the Setmore customer key in a customer metafield, with the appointment key on the draft order or order note on every event so a repeat is recognized before it writes.
Scale
Turns a typed order number into the order's internal ID and holds the booking if nothing matches.
Scale
Chooses which tags and metafields a booking writes, such as next visit and service type.
Stewardship
Finds records where Shopify has drifted from Setmore and shows how long they have been wrong.
Stewardship
Watches query cost and permissions so a busy day does not stall writes.
Stewardship
Keeps evidence, status and next step for every customer that could not be confirmed.

G7Who it is for
Setmore is where customers pick a time to see you; Shopify is where they bought the thing they are coming about.
"Know the order before the fitting."
The booking note names the order the customer mentioned.
"One customer, not two."
Email and the stored key keep a customer to a single profile.
"Trigger flows after a booking."
A tag and a next-visit metafield let a store email flow begin.
"Which item is coming in?"
The order or item reference sits on the appointment.
"Keep permissions narrow."
A custom Setmore to Shopify automation uses only the scopes you approve.
"Take deposits once."
A draft order bills a paid service so it is not taken twice.
The price follows customers, metafields and orders
Answer a few questions on scope and the total settles on a firm figure from $965.

I9Your options
Each can know a customer. Only one joins the booking, the profile and the order together.
| How a shop profile starts | Two customer lists | A sync that only adds customers | Our keyed shop build |
|---|---|---|---|
| What starts the work | Whoever is watching Setmore | Whatever the trigger allows | An approved booking change, judged before any write |
| How identity is decided | Matched by eye | The title or a label | A Setmore customer-key metafield, appointment key on the order note or draft order |
| What reaches Shopify | A pasted summary | A raw payload | One customer profile with next visit, and fittings tied to the right order |
| After an uncertain result | Staff search Shopify manually | A blind retry | Finds the customer first, then decides |
Delivery order is not trusted. Each event is ranked by its own time against the state already held in Shopify.
The order's email does not match the booking, so the note is not added; the booking is held for a person to check instead. A search on the Setmore customer key in a customer metafield, with the appointment key on the draft order or order note finds what exists; a comparison says whether it matches; the outcome is written down. Creation is allowed in one case alone: the customer is confirmed missing.
Everything in this route hangs from the Setmore customer key in a customer metafield, with the appointment key on the draft order or order note, so it is agreed before any mapping begins.
Pick a package, answer three short questions about how Setmore data should reach Shopify, and your price and turnaround move as you choose.
J11The process
Every step ends with something you can inspect: a map, a key, a test result or a signed note.
We list which services need an order, which take a deposit and which only need a customer match and a tag.
The connections between Setmore and Shopify are made with limited, revocable permissions.
Metafield names, tags, the order-number field on the booking form and the Shopify permissions are written out and approved.
Duplicates, out-of-order events, blank values and timeouts are staged in a test area so the repairs are proven.
Once tests pass, the route goes live from a set checkpoint and the documentation is delivered.
We watch the live route through its first cycle, compare both sides and tune thresholds where the data says to.

Days are counted from approved access, not from Setmore payment.

L13Getting started
M14Safety and ownership
Think of it as a pipe with two labelled ends: Setmore on one side, Shopify on the other, and nothing kept along the way.
Every request goes through the public interfaces of Setmore and Shopify. No core file, theme or application code is touched.
Each connection has the narrowest permissions that work, recorded in the handover.
The customer carries the values the business needs and no more; the rest of the Setmore record is never copied across.
Every repair starts from the Setmore customer key in a customer metafield, with the appointment key on the draft order or order note and a read of Shopify, so trying again is safe by construction.
Diagnostic records are deliberately thin, so there is little to protect.
There is no lock-in; the notes explain every setting we chose.

P16FAQ
Read these first; whatever is left can be asked in your quote request.
For a customer in the shop for every booking alone, a basic zap is enough. What it will not do is match each booking to the shop customer, record the next visit on their profile, attach it to the order they mentioned and bill paid services through a draft order. This build covers exactly what a basic connector leaves open.
To connect Setmore to Shopify, each booking is matched to a Shopify customer by email, the next visit is written to a metafield and tag, and an order is noted when one was named.
Yes, when the booking form asks for the order number. It is looked up to the internal ID and a note is added to that order.
Yes. A draft order is created once per appointment, with the service as a line item, and a retry finds it by key.
A zap can add a customer. This build adds matching, order lookup by ID, draft orders and a record of every write.
No. Data flows from Setmore into Shopify, so nothing changed in the shop can move or cancel an appointment.
A customer is created with the booking details and the stored key, and tagged as a booking customer.
Yes, and it is part of every package: our Setmore Shopify field mapping service assigns each Setmore field a destination, a type and a format for your sign-off before the build starts.
Yes. The route is built around your logic, so it is a custom Setmore workflow for Shopify with a Setmore Shopify integration consultant's care behind it, from $965.
If the platforms change, the route degrades gracefully: it holds the affected record and flags it. Follow-up support once your review window ends is quoted on its own.
