Price Updater Tool for Shopify
🔧 Quick Info: Bulk-update your Shopify product prices from a spreadsheet.
What it does
Price Updater lets you change the prices of many Shopify products at once from a single file. You upload a CSV or Excel file, match its columns to the tool’s fields, and the tool updates the matching variants in your store. Variants are matched by SKU, so the SKUs in your file must match the SKUs on your products. The work runs in the background and can email you when it’s done.
When to use it
Use it for any bulk price change — a sale, a cost-driven price increase, or correcting a batch of prices — instead of editing each product by hand in Shopify. It updates both the selling Price and the Compare At Price (the “was” price shown with a strikethrough).
Before you start
- A connected Shopify store.
- A CSV or Excel file whose first row contains the column headers, including SKU, Price, and Compare At columns.
- The SKUs in your file must match SKUs already in your store (this tool updates existing variants; it does not create products).
- Permission to manage products on the connected store.
Step-by-step
1 Open the Price Updater tool for your Shopify store.
2 Upload Price Updates step. Read the on-screen note: your file’s first row must contain SKU, Price, and Compare At columns.
3 Upload your CSV or Excel file.
4 Once the file is uploaded, the Match your file’s columns screen appears. Match your columns to SKU, Price, and Compare At Price. Columns you don’t map are ignored.
5 Email Delivery step. Choose whether you’d like an email when the update completes, and confirm the address to notify.
6 Submit. The update runs in the background — you can leave the page, and if you opted in to email delivery you’ll be notified when it finishes. Any rows that couldn’t be updated are collected so you can fix and re-upload them.
File / field reference
| Column | Required? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| SKU | Yes | Matches the variant to update. Up to 255 characters. |
| Price | No | The new selling price. Numeric. A value of 0 sets the price to 0.00. |
| Compare At Price | No | The “compare at” / was price. Numeric. A value of 0 sets it to 0.00. |
Map at least Price or Compare At Price — mapping SKU alone has nothing to update.
Troubleshooting / FAQ
A SKU wasn’t updated.
That SKU wasn’t found on a product variant in your store. Confirm the SKU matches exactly, then re-upload.
My file wasn’t accepted or columns looked wrong.
Make sure the first row contains the column names and includes SKU, Price, and Compare At columns.
