3. FIRST-TIME CUSTOMERS (webhook: orders/create)

FAQ

Does this work with Shopify Plus?

Yes. It works with any Shopify plan that has API access. Plus stores get additional webhook options and higher rate limits.

Can I customize the order value threshold?

Set it to whatever makes sense for your business. Some stores use $100, others $1000+. You can also have multiple tiers with different channels.

How do I avoid alert fatigue?

Route different alert types to different channels. Use batching for low-priority alerts. Let team members subscribe to what's relevant to them.

Can this integrate with my fulfillment system?

Yes. Add connectors for ShipStation, your 3PL, or other fulfillment tools to create shipping labels or notify warehouse staff automatically.
