Backups are a great way to secure your Shopify store. It’s like having an insurance policy for your digital property.
To start backing up your store, follow these 3 easy steps:
- Learn more about automatic Shopify backups or install Rewind from the Shopify App Store
- Select a plan and approve payment information to activate Rewind
- Your first backup will begin and be saved to your Rewind Vault
Backing up data
There are three ways Rewind works to ensure your Shopify store is always backed up:
- We run an automatic backup every night at 12am local time of new changes.
- We run instant, automatic backups while you work on your Shopify store.
- We offer the ability to launch a manual backup whenever you need it.
Rewind is a set it and forget it system. We will send you a weekly summary email of how your backups have been updated.
Congratulations 🎉 You’ve taken a massive step towards securing your data and having peace of mind about your store being protected from small mistakes or big disasters, like when Gymshark’s website crashed on Black Friday.
