For Shopify sellers

I only sell on Shopify — do I need this?

If you only sell on Shopify, Reckonmark still pays for itself. The scan loop reads your live product pages once a day against Shopify merchant policy, EU GPSR for cross-border parcels, and California Prop 65 — the three places a one-store Shopify shop takes the same exposure as a multi-channel seller. When something fails, you get an email with the failing line and a suggested rewrite tuned to that snippet. Add Etsy or Amazon later and the scan loop extends to them for free.

Three risks

The three places a Shopify-only store still takes compliance exposure.

Reckonmark is built around per-listing coverage, not per-storefront count. These are the three surfaces the daily scan targets that hit a one-store Shopify shop exactly the same as a multi-channel seller.

Shopify origin-claim / "made-by" wording

Shopify enforces accuracy on origin and material claims, and listings that pair a regional-origin phrase with a "ships from" address in a different jurisdiction routinely trip merchant-policy complaints. A SKU that was clean last quarter can be paused the next time a buyer escalates the description.

EU GPSR on cross-border parcels

A Shopify store shipping into the EU needs a manufacturer label on the listing, a responsible-person address per SKU family, and the CE/UKCA trail behind it. Shopify will not produce this paperwork for you — and the parcels will start returning once enforcement ramps up.

Prop 65 on wood-combustion, food-contact, and metal-jewelry SKUs

If even one California buyer orders your combustion, food-contact, or metal-jewelry SKU, Prop 65 exposure lands on that order. The old 'we don't ship to California' workaround doesn't get you clean when a marketplace or 3PL reroutes the parcel through a US address.

Sample alerts

Two alerts your morning digest might surface.

Examples taken from the kinds of Shopify-only product pages the scan surfaces most often — the failing snippet, the rule it tripped, and the suggested rewrite tuned to that snippet.

Flag
Shopify TOS
"Made in" / "Handmade" origin claim overlaps region — verify before publish

"Handmade in small-batch Vermont wood — ships from our Maine workshop with locally milled timber."

Shopify's merchant policies enforce accuracy on origin and material claims, and listings that blend a regional-origin claim with a "ships from" location in a second jurisdiction invite a complaint as misleading. The platform's policy update in 2026 tightened this language specifically around wood and natural-material SKUs, so the failing pattern is the one to rewrite first.

Suggested rewrite

"Handcrafted by us — wood sourced from small U.S. mills. We ship from our Maine workshop and will send a photo of the exact piece before you order if you want to confirm the grain."

Paste-ready — tuned to the failing snippet above.

Flag
CA Prop 65 + EU GPSR
Candle SKU ships into California and EU — Prop 65 short-form + GPSR Article 8 missing

"Hand-poured soy candle — cedarwood + smoke. 8 oz amber jar."

Combustion-product SKUs expose California buyers to chemicals listed under Proposition 65, and any parcel entering the EU needs the GPSR Article 8 manufacturer + responsible-person block on the listing. Shopify does not insert either one for you — both pieces of copy need to live in the Shopify product description so the page surfaces them before checkout.

Suggested rewrite

"Hand-poured soy candle — cedarwood + smoke. 8 oz amber jar. WARNING: Burning this candle exposes you to chemicals including soot, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov. Manufacturer: [your brand], [street], [city, state zip]. Responsible person (EU): [RP name], [EU address], rp@yourbrand.com. Compliance contact: compliance@yourbrand.com."

Paste-ready — tuned to the failing snippet above.

Honest fit

When you don't need us — and when you do.

Not every Shopify seller needs an always-on monitor. Here is the line we draw in plain language for a one-store Shopify shop.

Still safe without us

When you don't need a monitor.
  • Your Shopify SKU count is under twenty and you re-paste any new platform-policy language in the description by hand whenever Shopify emails you about a change.
  • You only ship inside one US state, your description copy stays in plain product-marketing language, and you sell nothing in the combustion, food-contact, or metal-jewelry categories.
  • You don't take Shopify orders from EU buyers and you never plan to, so EU GPSR is a non-issue for your storefront.

Better fit with us

When Reckonmark fits a solo Shopify shop.
  • Your Shopify SKU count is climbing past one hundred, or you sell in wood-combustion, food-contact, metal-jewelry, or children-products categories where Prop 65 surfaces first.
  • You take Shopify orders from EU buyers (GPSR applies) or from California buyers on any Prop 65–relevant SKU and you need the warning copy placed before the buyer checks out.
  • You'd rather have a morning email naming the failing line and a paste-ready rewrite than re-read Shopify policy emails and edit descriptions by hand every time a category's wording shifts.

Comparison

How Reckonmark compares to Enzuzo for a Shopify store.

Enzuzo owns the privacy-policy page and the cookie banner; Reckonmark owns the product description. The three rows below are the ones a one-store Shopify merchant hits first when weighing the two — for the full matrix head to the comparison page.
