Creating a Your Store Tools Account

Your Store Tools is like a magic toolbox full of time-saving tools designed to make managing your eCommerce store and its data much easier.

We offer both free and paid tools for BigCommerce which can only be accessed by first creating an account.  This multi-step process will require you to have "Store Owner" access to your BigCommerce store in order to grant API access.

If you’re ready to begin, let’s get started!

Step 2:
On the User screen, fill in all the requested information, then click Next

Step 3:

Step 4:

Here is where you will link your BigCommerce store to Your Store Tools. You must have "Store Owner" access to complete this step.  If you do not have "Store Owner" access to the BigCommerce store, please have the individual with that level of access create the account.
