Shopify Klaviyo Migration

You installed Klaviyo, activated the abandoned cart sequence, and moved on. A typical Klaviyo account uses a fraction of what it is paying for. A correctly built Klaviyo setup with complete flows, clean segmentation, and proper attribution generates 20-30% of total store revenue.

Klaviyo accounts we have built or rebuilt

Klaviyo is the platform we recommend for almost every Shopify brand, and we have configured it across DTC, B2B and hybrid operations. What follows is what we find wrong on nearly all of them.

20-30%

of revenue from email with a complete flow library

Stores with a full Klaviyo flow library and correct segmentation consistently generate 20-30% of revenue from email. Stores with only the default abandoned cart flow generate a fraction of that.

Shero has configured Klaviyo for Shopify brands across DTC, B2B, and hybrid operations since the platform launched. Klaviyo is the primary email recommendation for Shopify Plus brands in Shero's practice.

client retention

Our clients typically continue on a retainer for ongoing flow optimisation and campaign management.

Working with Shero has been an outstanding experience. Their team is highly skilled and easy to work with.

What the Shopify Klaviyo integration covers

Klaviyo connects to Shopify natively, syncing customer profiles, order history, product catalog, browsing behaviour, and cart events in real time. Shopify invested in Klaviyo in 2022 and named it the recommended email platform for Shopify Plus merchants. Shero configures Klaviyo beyond the default install: flow library build, revenue attribution, list segmentation, suppression rules, and the March 2026 Locale Aware Catalogs feature for brands using Shopify Markets across multiple regions.

  • Native Shopify data sync configuration
  • Revenue attribution window setup
  • Complete flow library build
  • List segmentation by purchase behaviour
  • Suppression and list hygiene
  • Locale Aware Catalogs for Shopify Markets

Why Shopify Plus brands choose Shero for Klaviyo

Klaviyo installed without a configured flow library and correct attribution is a subscription cost, not a revenue channel. The abandoned cart flow Klaviyo auto-creates is not a program. The flows that generate 30-40% of revenue require deliberate build.

01

Revenue attribution is wrong on most Klaviyo accounts from day one

Klaviyo's default attribution window is five days for email clicks and one day for opens. For stores with longer purchase cycles, this overcounts email's contribution. Shero configures the attribution window to match your actual purchase behaviour before any campaigns run.

02

The default abandoned cart flow is one email. A complete flow is three.

A single abandoned cart email recovers a fraction of what a sequenced three-step flow recovers. The second and third emails need different timing, offer logic, and suppression rules for recent purchasers. Shero builds the full sequence with conditional branching.

03

Klaviyo's segmentation depth is only useful when the segments are built

Klaviyo can segment by predicted lifetime value, churn risk, purchase category, and 50 other behavioural conditions. A typical account uses three segments. Shero builds the full segmentation structure before the first campaign send so campaigns reach the right contacts.

04

Locale Aware Catalogs makes Klaviyo work correctly for international stores

Launched March 2026, Klaviyo's Locale Aware Catalogs automatically sync translated content, regional pricing, currency, and market-specific URLs from Shopify Markets into Klaviyo. Shero configures this alongside the broader Shopify Markets setup so international email campaigns show the correct pricing and links per region.

05

List growth without list hygiene destroys deliverability

Every integration you connect to Klaviyo adds contacts, including unsubscribed Shopify customers. Unengaged contacts raise bounce rates and damage sender reputation. Shero configures suppression lists, sunset flows, and monthly hygiene rules from the start.

06

Klaviyo is now a four-product platform, not just email

Klaviyo now covers Marketing, Analytics, Service, and Data. The Analytics and Data platforms are genuinely useful for high-volume stores that need cross-channel revenue attribution and CDP capabilities. Shero scopes which Klaviyo products fit your operation. For brands needing a full CRM alongside Klaviyo, the Shopify CRM integration page covers the options.

Set up right the first time

App problems usually come from a rushed install: missing data, theme conflicts and scripts that slow the store. We set it up, connect the data and check the speed.

  • Data connected

    Customer, order and product data synced both ways with Shopify.

  • Theme ready

    Widgets and blocks placed in your theme without breaking the layout.

  • Speed checked

    Scripts reviewed so the app does not drag down Core Web Vitals.

  • Hand off

    Your team trained on the settings that matter.

A Klaviyo project usually scopes in a thirty-minute call. A call with Shero's email team produces a platform recommendation, a flow library plan, and a timeline before any commitment.

Process

How a Shopify Klaviyo setup works

We take Klaviyo past the abandoned cart flow and build the full setup.

  1. 01

    Sync check

    We confirm Klaviyo receives Shopify orders, catalog data, Active on Site and Viewed Product events correctly.

  2. 02

    Attribution

    We set attribution windows and check Klaviyo's reported revenue against Shopify orders.

  3. 03

    Flow build

    Welcome, abandoned checkout, browse, post-purchase and win-back flows are built with your product data.

  4. 04

    Segments

    Segments split buyers by order count, spend and Shopify Markets country for targeted campaigns.

  5. 05

    Suppression

    Unengaged profiles are suppressed so campaigns reach people who still open and click, which protects deliverability.

Invisible Bead Extensions®

"Working with Shero Commerce on our migration from WordPress to Shopify was honestly such a pleasant experience. We’d been on WordPress for five years with tons of content and very specific styling, and moving all of it into one cohesive Shopify site was no small feat, this was a genuinely complex, highly technical migration. But they pulled it off on deadline with zero errors and zero issues. Their team showed up with everything we needed: a project manager, multiple developers, marketing leads, email specialists, and CRO experts, all coordinated through dedicated meetings and a real task management system. They also designed several high impact conversion pages so our digital presence didn’t just function better, it looked beautiful too. Since migrating, we’ve seen an increase in revenue thanks to having one simplified, cohesive platform. I’m so grateful for how seamlessly they executed this, and I’d recommend Shero Commerce to anyone facing a migration like ours."
