1. Create or confirm your Business account and link your profiles

• In Business settings, connect your Facebook Page and Instagram account to the same Business account.

1. Verify your Etsy shop domain in Business settings

• In Business settings, open Brand Safety and suitability, then Domains.
• Add your Etsy shop domain in the format yourshopname.etsy.com. You can confirm the subdomain by visiting it in your browser and checking that it redirects to your Etsy shop.
• Facebook will provide a meta tag. In your Etsy Shop Manager, go to Settings then Facebook Shops. Paste the meta tag into the field there and click Connect.
• Return to Business settings and click Verify. Your domain should now be verified.

1. Generate a live data feed URL from Catalog Generator

• Sign up or log in at https://catalog-generator.webyze.com/
• Connect your Etsy shop to the app so it can read your listings.
• Copy the feed URL provided in the dashboard. This is the URL Meta will fetch to populate your catalog.

1. Create a catalog in Commerce Manager and choose data feed

• From your Business account, open Commerce Manager.
• Create or open your Commerce account, then go to Catalog.
• Click Add items and select Data feed. You do not need a template.

1. Paste the feed URL and set your sync schedule

• When asked to provide items, choose Use a URL and paste the Catalog Generator feed URL.
• Leave optional username and password fields empty unless instructed otherwise.
• Set a schedule. Daily sync is a smart default for most Etsy shops.

1. Submit your domain for approval

• In your catalog settings, find the domain approval section and submit your verified domain.
• Once approved, you can tag products in posts and stories and drive shoppers to your Etsy listings.

1. Start tagging products on Instagram

• In the Instagram app, create a post or story, choose Tag products, and pick items from your synced catalog.
• Posts and stories will display tappable product tags that deep link to your Etsy listings.

• Zero manual uploads. Your catalog stays fresh as you add or edit Etsy listings.
• Fast setup. Paste a single URL into Commerce Manager and you are done.
• Multichannel expansion. Use the same approach to integrate with Google Shopping when you are ready to scale.

• Helpful support. Clear instructions are provided and you can reach out if anything is unclear.

• Use clear product titles and detailed descriptions. Include materials, dimensions, and key attributes a buyer would search for.
• Choose strong primary images. Bright, high resolution photos against clean backgrounds often perform best in Shops.
• Keep pricing and availability accurate. With a data feed and daily schedule, your catalog reflects real time changes.
• Mind category and policy alignment. Ensure your items comply with Commerce policies and are assigned to appropriate categories.
• Add variants consistently. If your Etsy listing has variations, confirm they are represented in the feed and keep naming uniform.
• Encourage user generated content. After you enable product tagging, ask happy customers to tag your items in their posts.

• Do I need a custom website to verify a domain. No. You can verify your Etsy subdomain yourshopname.etsy.com by placing the provided meta tag in Etsy Shop Manager settings under Facebook Shops.
