# Shopify Plugin Integration

Shopify is completely cloud-based and hosted, which gives you the flexibility to access and run your business from almost anywhere. The Shopify plugin allows you to integrate with Verifone's Hosted Checkout.

## Prerequisites <a href="#prerequisites" id="prerequisites"></a>

Before installing the Verifone Hosted cart, you must meet the following requirements:

* Prerequisites related to the Shopify platform:
  * Creating a store in [Shopify](https://www.shopify.com/about);
* Prerequisites related to using Verifone Hosted cart in conjunction with the Shopify plugin:
  * Create a [Verifone account](broken://spaces/dzivQyj8aHN5Kvmx8apX/pages/xtNZm2bMCANroETthpG2);
  * Merchant Supervisor role assigned (in order to check the roles assigned to your account, log in to Verifone Central using the URL you received in your welcome emails and go to *Administration* → *Users*).
  * A [Secure Card Capture key](/online-payments/api-integration-methods-auth-and-endpoints/secure-card-capture-key.md) is generated in Verifone Central, on the organization your user is associated with.
  * An [API key](/online-payments/api-integration-methods-auth-and-endpoints/api-authentication.md) is created on the user.

To use the Verifone Hosted cart via the Shopify plugin, you will need to [install](/online-payments/plugins/shopify-plugin-integration/installation.md) and [configure the Verifone settings](/online-payments/plugins/shopify-plugin-integration/automatic-setup.md).

# Agent Instructions

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.verifone.com/online-payments/plugins/shopify-plugin-integration.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
