# Introduction

> How to use the Replic Shopify integration

<Note>
  If you are a designer, and you are not looking to resell patterns from other
  designers, you do not need the Replic Shopify integration.
</Note>

## Welcome

To start reselling digital patterns on your store, you will need: an active [Replic account](https://www.replic.ca/sign-up) and to have installed the [Replic Shopify Integration](https://apps.shopify.com/replic) on your store. After installing the Shopify app, you will be prompted to connect your Replic account.

## Getting set up

Follow these steps to get set up to sell digital patterns on your store.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Set up a payment method">
    Navigate to your [Settings > Billing](https://admin.shopify.com/apps/replic/app/settings/billing) page and enter a payment method. This is the payment method that will be automatically charged by suppliers when payment is due.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Find patterns">
    Head over to Replic and visit the [Pattern Library](https://www.replic.ca/patterns/search) to look for patterns you want to sell in your store. Select 'Request to Add' to notify the designer you are interested in reselling their patterns.

    <Tip>
      Most designers respond to requests within a few days.
