Embed 360 spins in Shopify

Shopify logoSince 2006, Shopify has made it easy to create beautiful websites. From day 1, they knew that people get a buzz from a great experience.

That's why Sirv 360 spins are such a winner on Shopify. They look gorgeous, feel sophisticated and are a doddle to install, thanks to Shopify's highest-rated image app, Magic Zoom Plus.

Follow the steps below to see how good your product pages and text areas will look.

Add 360 spin to product pages

Customers love a choice of hi-res zoomable images and a 360-degree spin. Experience this demo for yourself.

Here's a quick installation video:

Name the new folder the same as the Shopify product SKU. The product SKU is unique for each of your Shopify products, shown in the product information:

Tip: If you want each product variant to have a 360 spin, name your new folder to match the Product Variant code (not the Product SKU).

5. Upload your 360-degree spin images to the new folder. Simply drag and drop them into your Sirv account or click "Upload > Files" to select the set of images from your computer.

2. Upload your spin images to your Sirv account. If you don't have an account yet, register here.
