Common issues across integrations​

Products not appearing after connecting. Product sync can take up to 24 hours for all integrations. If products still do not appear after 24 hours, disconnect and reconnect the integration.

Connection fails during authorization. Make sure you are logged into the correct account (TikTok Seller account, Facebook account with Commerce Manager access, or Google account linked to your YouTube channel) before starting the authorization flow.

Reconnection after a domain change. If you change your Fourthwall shop domain, product feed URLs change and integrations stop working. Disconnect and reconnect each integration after any domain change to restore the link.

Product rejected by a platform. Each platform reviews submitted products for policy compliance. If a product is rejected, check the rejection reason in the platform's seller or commerce tools and update the product title, description, or images to meet the platform's requirements.

Frequently asked questions​

Can I connect all three integrations at once?​

Yes. Each integration is independent. You can connect TikTok Shop, Instagram Shopping, and YouTube Merch Shelf at the same time from the Apps section.

Do supporters complete purchases on the social platform or on my Fourthwall shop?​

It depends on the platform. TikTok Shop handles checkout natively on TikTok. Instagram and YouTube link supporters to your Fourthwall product page to complete the purchase.

Will all my products sync automatically?​

All published products sync. Hidden, archived, or out-of-stock products are excluded. Each platform may also apply its own review and approval process before products appear.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact us at support@fourthwall.com.
