Where to find this: Shopify admin → Apps → Yuko Loyalty → Integrations → Shopify Flow

​
Introduction

The Shopify Flow connector exposes Yuko events as triggers inside Shopify Flow. Anything Shopify Flow can do downstream — update customer tags, create draft orders, notify staff — can run in response to a loyalty event.

​
When to use

  • You already use Shopify Flow.
  • You want loyalty events to drive Shopify-native automations.
  • You want to extend loyalty without leaving the Shopify admin.

​
Prerequisites

Your Shopify plan includes Shopify Flow (currently free for all paid plans).
Yuko is installed and your loyalty program is enabled.

​
Setup

1

Connect the integration

In Yuko, go to Apps → Yuko Loyalty → Integrations → Shopify Flow and click Connect.
2

Open Shopify Flow

In Shopify admin, go to Apps → Shopify Flow → Workflows.
3

Create a new workflow

Click Create workflow and pick a Yuko trigger from the trigger picker (e.g., “Yuko: VIP tier changed”).
4

Build the rest of the flow

Add Shopify Flow conditions and actions as usual.
5

Activate

Turn the workflow on.

​
Available triggers in Shopify Flow

  • Yuko: Points credited
  • Yuko: Points redeemed
  • Yuko: VIP tier changed
  • Yuko: Reward issued
  • Yuko: Referral completed
  • Yuko: Membership activated / cancelled

​
Common use cases

  • Add a Shopify customer tag when a customer reaches the Diamond tier.
  • Create a Slack notification when a high-value referral converts.
  • Email a staff member when a customer’s points balance crosses a threshold.
  • Trigger a Shopify draft order with a special bundle when a customer redeems a milestone reward.

​
Limitations

  • Shopify Flow has its own rate limits and execution caps — see Shopify’s documentation.
  • The Yuko → Flow connection is one-way (Yuko triggers Flow; Flow doesn’t write back to Yuko).

​
Best practices

Use Flow for Shopify-native side effects (tags, draft orders, staff notifications). Use Yuko Workflows for loyalty-side automations (emails, points adjustments).
Don’t duplicate logic in both tools. Pick one home for each automation.

​
FAQs

Yuko Workflows are loyalty-native (best for emails, points, coupons, partner messaging). Shopify Flow is Shopify-native (best for tags, orders, fulfilments, staff alerts). Use both for what each does best.
