Here's how it works:

1. Install the App

Install Outlink External Links Button from the Shopify App Store and complete the initial setup.

2. Add the Outlink App Block

3. Assign External Links to Your Products

4. Outlink Replaces the "Add to Cart" Button

Once an external link is configured, Outlink automatically replaces the default Add to Cart button on the product page with your custom Outlink button. You can also display both buttons together, depending on how you want customers to interact with your products- Know more

5. Guide Customers to the Right Destination

When customers interact with the Outlink button on a product page, they'll be directed to the external URL you've configured for that product.

This could be:

  • An affiliate product page
  • A partner website
  • A marketplace listing
  • A booking or registration page
  • Any other external webpage

6. Earn Affiliate Commissions

If you're using affiliate links, you'll earn commissions according to the terms and conditions of your affiliate program or partner network.
