Use your store as a link in bio page
Turn your storefront into one mobile column with your photo, a short bio and groups of products and links, ready to paste into your Instagram or TikTok bio.
When you finish these steps, your store looks like a link in bio page: your photo and name on top, one line about you, your social icons, and your products and links in groups that open on tap. It is the same store as before, so you can switch back to any other template without losing your sections.
What the Bio template changes
| Part of the page | Under Bio |
|---|---|
| Layout | One centred column on every screen size, like a phone screen. |
| Profile | Always on top. Without a profile set up, the store shows your site title there. |
| Sections | Each section is a group with a heading that opens on tap. The first group starts open; visitors' choices are remembered while the tab is open. Products outside sections form the last group. |
| Cards | Full width, with a small square image, a one-line description and the price or Free. The whole card is the link. |
| Section layouts | Grid, List, Carousel and Featured hero are kept but not used. They come back when you pick another template. |
Turn your store into a link in bio page
Pick a Bio style
Open Your site → Storefront (/sites/storefront) and the Design tab. Under Ready link
in bio styles pick Minimal, Colorful or Dark. One click sets the Bio template,
the light or dark mode, and the colors and fonts; your card corners, image ratio and price
settings stay. Changing a color afterwards is fine: the style was only a starting point.
Fill in your profile
On the Settings tab, the Profile section is at the top. Add a Profile photo (upload
one or pick it from your media library). Pick a square photo: the page shows it in a circle, so a
wide logo would be cropped. Fill in One line about you and Website (typing yoursite.com
is enough, https:// is added for you). Leave Name empty to show your site title. Turn on
Social icons under the profile to show the profiles from Footer → Social links further
down the same tab.
Group your products
On the Sections tab, click Add section and name the group, for example "Start here" for your free products. Add products adds products to the group; drag them to set the order. Each section becomes one group on the page, in the same order.
Add links to things outside your store
Under a section click Add link. Give it a Title and an Address (a web address, for example your podcast or calendar), and optionally an Image and a Description, then click Add. The link shows as a card like your products, without a price, and opens in a new tab. You can drag a link to another section, but not into the Products group of items outside sections.
Save and copy your store address
Click Save, then View store to check the page on your phone. To copy the address, go to the Dashboard, click the arrow next to the Your site button and pick Copy link. The Copy link icon in Site & brand → Site settings, under Your site address, copies the same address. Paste it into your Instagram or TikTok bio.
Good to know
New products get a New badge by themselves for 14 days after they are first published. To always show it or never show it, click the pencil (Edit store card) on a product and change "New" badge to Always or Never.
Let the agent set it up
The agent also writes a short Instagram bio: ask for it in the chat, copy the answer with the Copy button under the message and paste it into your profile.
You can ask the agent: "make me a link in bio page from my products". It reads your store, your products and your brand profile, shows you the whole plan (style, profile, groups, links) and saves it only after you say yes in the chat. For the profile photo it uses a square photo, never a wide logo. If the plan has no photo or social icons, tell it in the chat which photo from your media library to use and to show the Instagram icon from your footer. If another page is your site's home page, the agent offers to switch to the store: you approve that on the Action requires your approval card ("Make the product store the home page of your site") with Approve, and your site name and description stay as they are. Then it gives you the address to paste into your bio. You can also copy it as in step 5. See what you can ask the agent to do.
If the bio link opens something else
The link in bio page is your store, so it shows at your site's main address only when the main page is set to the store. If visitors land on your client dashboard or a community, change the main page as described in Site address and main page. If Your site → Storefront shows A custom page is your storefront, visitors see that page instead of your store: click Use product storefront, then Save.
