InstaShop is an app that allows owners of online shops, including Shopify, WooCommerce, Go Daddy Connect and more to insert Instagram galleries and sliders into their shop.

Shop owners import pictures from Instagram accounts and Instagram hashtags. These pictures can then be ‘tagged’ with SmartPins, each pin links to a product in the shop owners store. Pins are brought to life with product pictures, text and product prices.

InstaShop makes is easy to create and manage ‘shop the look’ pages or homepage gallery sliders. These mimic the format of Instagram and create new ways for customers to browse and buy products.
