Outdoor merchant onboarding
Install Ch4mber Carbon Neutral for ski, bike, and outdoor commerce.
For public rollout, install from Shopify App Store. For direct/private installs, use secure OAuth below and return to the merchant dashboard for setup guidance, pricing visibility, and launch coordination with Ch4mber before seasonal traffic or campaign drops.
Readiness checklist
Quick checks to avoid install and webhook mismatch issues.
Store domain ends with .myshopify.com.
App URL matches deployed environment.
Redirect URL includes /api/auth/callback.
Webhook secret is configured.
Core ski, bike, apparel, and gear products have variant weight set in Shopify.
Contribution variant is set to $1.00 (100 cents) for cleaner cart UX.
Ch4mber has confirmed pricing and inventory allocation before launch.
Install path
Use App Store install for public distribution. Keep direct OAuth for private testing or internal demos.
Contribution remains optional for shoppers. Carbon-neutral completion is shown only after issued-credit checks and retirement evidence are complete, and Ch4mber manages the underlying credit pricing and allocation.
How pricing is calculated
What brands should expect before launch, without editing unit economics themselves.
1. Weight present: estimate uses weight × category factor.
2. Ski, snowboard, bike, and outdoor product types use the outdoor factor.
3. Outdoor items with missing weight use a practical default before spend fallback.
4. Other categories with missing weight use spend fallback.
5. Contribution is always optional for the buyer.
6. Carbon-neutral claim is finalized only after retirement evidence.
Theme app extension onboarding
Required merchant setup for the storefront opt-in experience after app installation.
1. In Shopify Admin go to Online Store > Themes > Customize.
2. Use Theme Editor for the storefront block; use Checkout Editor for the optional checkout block.
3. Open the product or cart template where outdoor shoppers should see the contribution option.
4. Add app block: Ch4mber Carbon Neutral.
5. Leave Contribution variant ID blank to auto-detect, or set it manually if needed.
6. Save theme changes and verify contribution options on storefront.
Checkout UI extension onboarding (optional)
Use this if your plan or store supports checkout extensibility.
1. In Shopify Admin go to Settings > Checkout > Customize.
2. In the editor, click Add app block in a checkout section.
3. Select Ch4mber Carbon Neutral checkout block.
4. Save and open checkout preview once to generate extension activity.
5. Use a real storefront cart checkout to validate real line items and totals (editor preview uses sample data).
