Common questions

How do I import a CSV file of products into my online store?

Put your product name, description, price and stock into columns of a CSV spreadsheet. In Pludor, open Products, choose Bulk Import (CSV), press Import CSV and pick your file, then review the imported products, fix any gaps, and mark them available for purchase.

What is Pludor Bulk Product Import (CSV)?

It's a feature that imports a CSV spreadsheet of products into your store in one step. It's built for stores moving from another platform or anyone with a large catalog, since typing hundreds of products in by hand takes days.

How much does bulk CSV product import cost?

On Pludor it's included on every store, including the Free plan - you get a free amount every month and pay only for what you use past that, in credits (1 credit = 1 cent). There's no item limit, and you can start a free store without a card.

How do I move my product catalog from Shopify, Etsy or another platform to a new store?

Export your products from your old platform as a CSV, then import that spreadsheet into your new store. On Pludor, open Products, choose Bulk Import (CSV), upload the file, review the results and publish - there's no item limit, so large catalogs work fine.

What columns should my product CSV file have?

At minimum, include name, description, price and stock - one product per row. If your products have them, you can also add Brand, GTIN/UPC/EAN, MPN, SKU, condition and cost, which Google Shopping, Meta and AI shopping assistants look for.

Is there a free way to import products in bulk without paying monthly fees?

Yes. Pludor's Free plan is $0 with every feature on, including Bulk Product Import (CSV), and no card is needed to start. You get a free amount of usage each month and only pay for what you use past that.

How do I write product descriptions fast for a big catalog?

Paste a product into Pludor's Product Description Generator and get a description ready for your import sheet in seconds. It's free to try with 8 runs an hour and no account, and opening a free store adds 500 credits for Pludor's tools and AI.

How do I add product identifiers like SKU, GTIN and brand after importing?

Open Products, edit the product, and fill in Brand, GTIN/UPC/EAN and MPN if the product has them, plus SKU, condition and your cost. Save, and your feed picks up the new fields automatically - these are the fields Google Shopping, Meta and AI shopping assistants look for.

Can I import products and set my own prices and margins automatically?

Yes. If you import supplier products via Pludor's AliExpress Import, you can then use Bulk Edit to set margins and rewrite titles in one pass. You can also improve the listings with AI Studio to create clean product images and videos.
