Introduction

Yuko is a public Shopify app. Install it from the Shopify App Store, approve its permissions, and it opens inside your Shopify admin under Apps → Yuko Loyalty.

​
What problem this solves

Yuko installs through Shopify’s standard app flow. Storefront widgets load through a theme app embed and Shopify extensions, so you don’t need to edit theme code.

​
When to use

  • You’re setting up Yuko for the first time.
  • You’re reinstalling Yuko after uninstalling it.

​
Before you start

You’re the store owner, or a staff member with permission to install apps.

​
Setup guide

1

Open the Yuko App Store listing

Visit apps.shopify.com/yuko and click Install.
2

Approve permissions

Shopify lists the access Yuko needs, including customers, orders, products, discounts, themes and store credit. Review it and click Install.
3

Enter your contact details

Yuko opens on Set up your loyalty rewards. Enter your Contact email (and optionally a Phone number) and click Get Started.
4

Follow the Setup Guide

On the Dashboard, the Setup Guide walks you through enabling the Yuko theme app embed. In Loyalty → Programs, the Quick Start checklist covers the steps to get your loyalty program running.
5

Enable the Yuko App embed

Turn on the Yuko App embed in your theme so storefront widgets can load. See Theme App Embed.

​
How it works

When you install Yuko, Shopify grants it access to your store. Yuko uses that access to:
  • Read orders and customers so it can award points.
  • Create discount codes and store credit when customers redeem rewards.
  • Listen for Shopify events such as new orders, fulfillments, refunds and cancellations.
  • Make its theme app embed, theme blocks, checkout blocks and customer account extensions available in your Shopify editors.

​
Limitations

  • Headless storefronts (Hydrogen or custom) can’t use the theme app embed or theme blocks. Use the REST API instead.

​
Best practices

Open Yuko from your Shopify admin. Go to Apps → Yuko Loyalty. The app runs inside Shopify.
Don’t uninstall to start over. To clear test data, use Reset customer activities in Loyalty → Settings.

​
FAQs

Shopify cancels the install. Start again from the App Store listing and approve the permissions.
No. Turn on the Yuko App embed and add Yuko blocks in the Theme Editor.
Open Shopify admin → Settings → Apps, find Yuko, and click Uninstall. This removes Yuko’s access to your store.
