HELP & DOCUMENTATION
Cool Climate Club Shopify App
Installing the app
● Search “Cool Climate Club” in the Shopify App store
● Click Install
You will be asked to approve up to $5000/month in charges from the app. This is because Shopify requires us to set a limit to the amount our app can charge to your Shopify invoice each month.
The app only charges for the actual amount from each sale recorded as a contribution to your forest, so the app is not charging you fees but rather billing you for the money you collected to put toward your forest.
If you are approaching your limit for the month and want to continue to enable customers to contribute to your forest, please contact us at support@canadasforesttrust.ca
Connecting your forest
The trees your customers contribute to your forest will be recorded in your Smart Forest Portal™ so you can monitor your impact over time. Follow these steps to connect your Shopify store to your Portal.
