  3. Once you have customized your Buy Button, copy the embed code provided by Shopify.

  4. In your Webflow project, go to the page where you want to add the Buy Button and open the Designer.

  5. Add an HTML Embed element to your page and paste the Shopify Buy Button embed code into the element.

  6. Save and publish your Webflow project to see the Buy Button live on your website.

With the Shopify Buy Button, you can easily connect Webflow to Shopify and have the benefit of automatic updates for inventory and new items without the need for a complex integration. This solution is especially useful if you're looking for a simpler way to handle your e-commerce needs.
