Install guide

Install Visisto on Shopify

Edit theme.liquid to add the Visisto tracking script. Takes under 2 minutes, no Shopify app required.

Before you start
  • A Shopify store on any plan (including Basic)
  • Access to your Shopify admin (Online Store → Themes)
  • Your Visisto Site Key. Go to Sites → [your site] → Manage Site → Advanced options

Your install snippet

Replace YOUR_SITE_ID with your Site Key from the dashboard under Sites → [your site] → Install → Advanced options. Paste both script blocks before the closing </head> tag.

<script>
  window.__VISISTO__ = {
    site: "YOUR_SITE_ID",
    api: "https://api.visisto.com"
  };
</script>
<script
  src="https://cdn.visisto.com/loader.js"
  data-site="YOUR_SITE_ID"
  data-api="https://api.visisto.com"
  defer
></script>

Tips & notes
  • Paste into theme.liquid, not a section file, so the script loads on every page of your store.
  • Works on product pages, collection pages, the cart, checkout (where permitted), and landing pages.
  • Shopify clears its own CDN cache automatically, so no manual cache-clear is needed after saving.
  • If you switch themes, remember to re-add the snippet to the new theme's theme.liquid file.
