# Getting Started

Assuming you have already got a shopify account then the next step is to ask us to set up your Pixfizz account.

Once you have your account setup you will need to point a CNAME record to `hosting.pixfizz.com`. Common subdomains used for this integration are `create.yourdomain.com`, `design.yourdomain.com`. More details on how to edit DNS settings to point to Pixfizz can be found [here](/admin-and-settings/setup-custom-domains.md). **PLEASE ADVISE US ONCE YOUR DOMAIN NAME HAS BEEN SETUP SO WE CAN REQUEST AN SSL.**

Log onto your admin portal and proceed to "Settings" - "General". Now add the newly created subdomain to **Domain Hosting** tab - this is the CNAME you created to point to Pixfizz servers. It should look like the below when set up.

You will now need to setup "External hosts" - this is below the Domain hosting. You need to add the domain that your Shopify store uses on your live site (ie "[www.yourdomain.com](http://www.yourdomain.com)"). This will look as follows:

You are now ready to add the required integration code to your Shopify admin. The integration allows you to sell products created on the Pixfizz platform, as well as other products.

If you want us to assist you with the installation then let us know and we will request access to your store as a **collaborator** via Shopify's partner program. You will need to supply us with a collaborator code for us to request access before you can approve it.
