Variants that don't break
Sizes in one cell or across columns become proper variants, each with its own price, SKU and stock.
Turn the file you have into Shopify products. No reformatting.
CSV, Excel or PDF. Csvio fixes the columns, prices and variants, and you approve every product before it goes live.

Example file. Yours can look completely different.
Every supplier sends a different file. Shopify only takes one.
Shopify wants its own template. So you rename Trade Price Price, split S/M/L/XL by hand, strip the “$” from every price, and the import still fails on row 312.
From file to live products in three steps.
-
Upload the file as it came
No template, no renaming.
-
Check what csvio did
Anything it couldn’t fix is listed for you.
-
Import
Straight into your store, or as a Shopify CSV.
Same supplier next week? Csvio remembers their layout, so it’s upload and import.
Made for messy files.
Keep your own column names
Csvio works out what each column means. You can change any match.
Nothing goes live until you've seen it
Preview every product first. One bad row skips that row, not the whole file.
New price list? Update your store
Upload the new list and see what changed before you apply it. Or put it on a schedule.
The same file, two ways.
| By hand, with Shopify's template | With csvio | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Your file's own column names | Rename every one to match the template | Matched for you | |
| “S/M/L/XL” in one cell | Split into separate rows yourself | Becomes variants automatically | |
| Prices like “$24.00 USD” | Clean them first | Cleaned on the way in | |
| Next file in the same layout | Same work again | Layout remembered |

Do I have to change my file first?
No. Upload it as it came. Csvio reads the file's own column names and matches them to Shopify. You can change any match before importing.
Which files work?
CSV (.csv), Excel (.xlsx and .xls) and PDF catalogs, on every plan. PDFs work when the products are laid out in a table. The Free plan includes one PDF a month.
Will it change products already in my store?
Not when you create products. Csvio skips any product your store already has and tells you which ones. Changing existing products is a separate choice, Bulk edit, and you see every change before it runs.
Can I undo an import?
There's no undo button, so csvio shows you every product before anything is created, and nothing goes live until you confirm. If something isn't right afterwards, fix the file and use Bulk edit, or remove the products with Bulk delete on a paid plan.
What happens to rows it can't import?
They're skipped, not the whole file. The results screen lists each one with the reason, and you can retry just those rows once they're fixed.
What about product photos?
If your file has image web links, csvio uses them. If you have the image files instead, upload them (a .zip of the folder works) and csvio matches them to your products by file name.
How does billing work?
Through your Shopify bill, monthly. The Free plan needs no card. You can change plan or cancel anytime from the app.
