How Can I Add Products to Facebook Catalog for My Online Business?

7 min read

You’re ready to get your products in front of 超过 2.9 十亿用户 在脸书上, that’s great! Already have a Facebook business profile? You’re that much closer to literally setting up shop.

But now you need a shop page, and this requires a product catalog. You have three options:

  • Manually upload products through the Facebook Catalog Manager
  • Import products through an e-commerce platform (hello Ecwid E-commerce!)
  • Or use the Catalog API (this is used for sellers who are already working with developers)

The great thing about using Ecwid, we give you the seamless integration to establish your store and products on Facebook, without any of the hassle. By the end, you’ll be ready to add your products to a catalog and start 在 Facebook 上销售!

How Does Shop Page Work on Facebook?

If you’re selling online already, it makes sense to take it a step further and setup a shop page on Facebook. This is where you’ll need a catalog, let’s clear up what it is and how it works.

Please note that on April 27, 2023, Meta announced changes to Facebook and Instagram Shops across different regions. See how your Shops on Facebook and Instagram experience may be affected in the 元业务帮助中心.

According to Facebook, “a Facebook catalog is a container that holds information about the items you want to advertise or sell across Facebook and Instagram. You can create catalogs for different types of inventory, like products (电子商务), 酒店, flights, destinations, home listings or vehicles.”

目前, we’ll stick to creating a product catalog for e-commerce. Once you add products to your catalog, you’re able to sell across multiple channels, 包括Instagram. This will allow you to show and sell products directly to people on Facebook. Customers can purchase from the shop page with a seamless checkout experience.

Before you begin, you’ll want to review Facebook’s Merchant Terms and check to make sure your products align with the 商业政策.

How Do I Get a Product Catalog on Facebook?

As we mentioned there are a number of ways, but the easiest way is to start with an e-commerce platform. You’ll upload your catalog to Ecwid and use the integration to make the transition seamless. And be on your way to selling on Facebook! Here is how:

So simple to use – even my most technophobic clients can manage. Easy to install, quick to set up. Light years ahead of other shop plugins.
I’m so impressed I’ve recommended it to my website clients and am now using it for my own store along with four others for which I webmaster. Beautiful coding, excellent top-notch support, great documentation, fantastic how-to videos. Thank you so much Ecwid, you rock!
I’ve used Ecwid and I love the platform itself. Everything is so simplified it’s insane. I love how you have different options to choose shipping carriers, to be able to put in so many different variants. It’s a pretty open e-commerce gateway.
Easy to use, 负担得起的 (and a free option if starting off). Looks professional, many templates to select from. The App is my favorite feature as I can manage my store right from my phone. Highly recommended 👌👍
I like that Ecwid was easy to start and to use. Even for a person like me, without any technical background. Very well written help articles. And the support team is the best for my opinion.
For everything it has to offer, ECWID is incredibly easy to set up. Highly recommend! I did a lot of research and tried about 3 other competitors. Just try ECWID and you'll be online in no time.
