How to Connect BigCommerce to Bookkeep

Bookkeep offers a direct integration with BigCommerce. To connect BigCommerce, you will need the username and password of the owner login for the BigCommerce account.

Steps to Connect BigCommerce to Bookkeep​

1. Add BigCommerce App​

To start the installation process, first go to Connections -> Available apps and click the BigCommerce button.

Available Apps Tab

2. Choose Connection Method​

You have two options when connecting BigCommerce:

  1. Connect Now: If you have the owner-level login information, you can proceed with "Connect now" to input the username and password.
  2. Ask Owner to Connect: If you do not have the owner-level login information, you can proceed with "Ask owner to connect." This will ask for the email address of the owner for the BigCommerce account you wish to connect. Bookkeep will then email the owner with a link to connect BigCommerce.
