Promote How Click and Collect Works on Shopify from H3 to H2
Yes — click and collect is fully supported on Shopify and is a great option for Irish businesses that operate a physical location alongside their online store. It’s particularly popular with retailers, food businesses, artisan producers, and service providers who want to give local customers a convenient, cost-free collection option.
How Click and Collect Works on Shopify
Shopify refers to click and collect as Local Pickup. It’s available on all Shopify plans and is easy to set up. Here’s how it works:
- When a customer reaches checkout, they’re offered the option to pick up their order from your location instead of having it shipped
- You can set up one or multiple collection points (e.g., your shop, warehouse, or office)
- Customers receive an email notification when their order is ready for collection
- You can set a pickup instruction message (e.g., “Please collect from reception during opening hours”)
- Orders are flagged as “Ready for Pickup” in your Shopify admin once you’ve prepared them
Setting Up Local Pickup in Shopify
To enable click and collect in your Shopify store:
- Go to Settings > Shipping and Delivery in your Shopify admin
- Under Local Pickup, click Manage
- Add your collection location(s) with address, pickup instructions, and expected ready times
- Set whether you charge for pickup (most businesses offer it free)
- Save and test at checkout
