Pinterest

useless app that gives nothing but problems when trying to publish your catalogue and sync your shopify store to pinterest. its main focus is a gateway for trying to run ads and even that is not done well.

Setting up my Pinterest shop has been an incredibly professional experience. Although we had some initial technical hurdles due to our large catalog size, the support from the team and the verification process through Yoti gave us great confidence. We are impressed with how 99% of our 171k products were seamlessly integrated. Looking forward to growing our brand on Pinterest!

You'd be better off not installing this app.

My account was unilaterally closed after being flagged as spam despite me doing nothing. As I hadn't tampered with the account, it's highly likely activity based on this app was deemed spam. It's odd for an official app to behave this way. I've wasted both time and effort.

Furthermore, I was persistently pressured by a sales representative to register my credit card for advertising purposes. I found it questionable that I was told to register card details when I had no intention of using the adverts.

Given the size on Pinterest this really is a rubbish app. Many of the links just do not work and it's a nightmare to understand how the feed works. It also is impossible to tailor your feed.

Absolutely no support. My account was hacked and I received no support. They deactivated it and that was it!

I have spent 130 pounds on this garbage no sales which is understandable but no evidence of clicks and i was unable to cancel and plus a 74 pound ad credit which was not used so 130 pound down the drain avoid this site at all costs. I should be refunded for the rubbish i had to delete my account as well.

Can unexpectedly cause account issues
We connected the Pinterest app to our Shopify store to sync products. Shortly after, our established Pinterest business account was deactivated with the reason “spam.” We didn’t spam users and didn’t request account closure. It looks like the automated catalog sync (many items created/updated in a short time) may trigger Pinterest’s anti-spam systems.
Recommendation for other merchants: sync in small batches (e.g., one collection first), double-check titles/descriptions/URLs, enable 2FA, and keep the violations/appeal portal handy.

I like it, but as others have said it is very confusing. For instance someone (like me) who has never gone on Pinterest before, it is confusing as to what a Pin and a Board are. Plus I made a mistake when filling in the profile page and now I can't figure out how to change it. More information please Pinterest.

I like it. I am quite new to Pinterest and the app seems to be syncing with my store by some miraculous means, so all good. I keep getting alerts which don't seem to relate to anything though.

Doesn't do anything.
