Frequently Asked Questions
How do I connect Zapier to BigCommerce?
Spark Shipping provides a pre-built integration between Zapier and BigCommerce. To get started, create a Spark Shipping account, add Zapier as a vendor using your API credentials or data feed details, then connect your BigCommerce store. Once linked, Spark Shipping handles product data, inventory, pricing, order routing, and tracking updates automatically — no custom development required.
Does Spark Shipping sync Zapier inventory with BigCommerce automatically?
Yes. Spark Shipping pulls live inventory levels directly from Zapier and pushes updates to your BigCommerce store on a scheduled interval. When a product goes out of stock or drops below a threshold you set, your BigCommerce listings update automatically to prevent overselling.
What Zapier product data gets synced to BigCommerce?
Spark Shipping syncs the full Zapier product catalog your dealer account is authorized for, including titles, descriptions, specifications, high-resolution images, UPCs, MPNs, brand and category data, and your dealer-specific pricing. If Zapier provides Year/Make/Model fitment data, that is included as well. All product data flows directly into your BigCommerce store and stays up to date automatically.
Can I automate Zapier order fulfillment on BigCommerce?
Yes. When a customer places an order on your BigCommerce store, Spark Shipping captures it and submits a fulfillment request directly to Zapier. Once Zapier ships the order, tracking information is pulled back and pushed to BigCommerce automatically, so your customer receives a shipping notification without any manual work on your end.
Can I sell Zapier products alongside other suppliers on BigCommerce?
Absolutely. Spark Shipping supports multiple vendors on a single BigCommerce store. If the same product is available from Zapier and another supplier, you can link both to one listing. Spark Shipping's Intelligent Order Routing then automatically selects the supplier with the best price or closest warehouse to the customer's shipping address for each order.
How does Spark Shipping handle Zapier pricing on BigCommerce?
Spark Shipping pulls your dealer cost and MAP pricing directly from Zapier and applies your custom pricing rules to calculate retail prices on BigCommerce. You can set fixed dollar markups, percentage margins, or tiered pricing structures. When Zapier changes wholesale cost or MAP, your BigCommerce prices adjust automatically to protect your margins.
