Here’s a step-by-step guide to get started:

Step 1: Install the Libautech Buy Button App

To begin, you'll need to install the Libautech Amazon Buy Button app on your Shopify store. This app makes it easy to add marketplace buttons with affiliate links to your products. The pro version allows you to integrate multiple marketplaces, including Amazon and eBay.

  1. Go to the Shopify App Store and search for the Libautech Buy Button app.
  2. Install the app and follow the prompts to complete the setup.

Step 2: Add Amazon Affiliate Links

Now that the app is installed, you can add your Amazon affiliate link to any product in your Shopify store.

  1. Open the Libautech Buy Button app in your Shopify dashboard.
  2. Select the product where you want to add an Amazon button.
  3. Under Amazon Settings, enter your Amazon affiliate link in the Amazon Link field. If you don’t have an affiliate link, you can sign up for the Amazon Associates program to get one.
  4. Click Save and Enable to activate the Amazon button on this product.

This will create a “Buy on Amazon” button on the product page, allowing customers to click and be redirected to Amazon, where you’ll earn affiliate fees on qualifying purchases.

Step 3: Add eBay Affiliate Links

You can also add an eBay affiliate link in a similar way:

  1. Go back to the Libautech Buy Button app and select the product you want to edit.
  2. Under eBay Settings, enter your eBay affiliate link in the eBay Link field. If you’re not yet an eBay Partner, you can join the eBay Partner Network to get started.
  3. Click Save and Enable to activate the eBay button on the product.

The “Buy on eBay” button will appear alongside the Amazon button, letting customers choose where they’d like to make their purchase.
