Shopify and Third-Party Email Notifications

The Global‑e solution allows brands to retain control over their transactional emails by relying on Shopify’s email notifications or any third-party application used for that purpose.

As part of the standard Global‑e order flow, the following Shopify email notifications are triggered by the events in Shopify: 

  • Order confirmation

  • Order cancelled

  • Order refund

  • Shipping confirmation

Depending on your offering, the following notifications may also be applicable:

  • Draft order invoice

  • Gift card created

Important

If you use a third-party app to send emails rather than using the native Shopify emails, make sure to disable the Shopify notifications (otherwise two emails will be sent for each event).

If you use the notifications natively available in Shopify, make sure that this option is enabled in Shopify.

Global‑e Email Notifications

If you are using the Global‑e Returns portal, Global‑e sends the RMA notification email including the Returns documents directly to the customer.
