Gelato
Gelato is a platform for print on demand production and fulfilment.
Key features include:
- Print on demand fulfilment
- Global print network
- Product personalisation
- Manual CSV order import
Gelato integrates with ShopWired by using exported ShopWired order CSV files so you can manually prepare and upload order batches to Gelato for fulfilment.
Prerequisites
Prerequisites
Before preparing your CSV order file, you will need:

- The CSV format required by Gelato
Orders are not sent to Gelato automatically. You must repeat this process manually for each batch of orders.

Gelato does not natively support ShopWired. This guide explains how to use ShopWired order exports with Gelato’s CSV importer.
Providing a CSV order file to Gelato
Providing a CSV order file to Gelato
Gelato accepts order imports from CSV files that use its required column format.
To export orders from ShopWired:
- Navigate to Orders > View orders
- Select the orders you want to export
- Select the
exportoption - Download the order CSV file
The ShopWired export contains the order and delivery address data required for the Gelato CSV file, but the column names and structure must be changed before the file is uploaded to Gelato.
The required CSV structure, column names, and accepted values are defined by Gelato within your account. Mapping is required because ShopWired and Gelato use different CSV formats.
Recommendations
Recommendations
- Prepare a saved CSV template using Gelato’s required column names
- Check all required fields are correctly mapped before uploading
- Use consistent SKUs in ShopWired and Gelato to reduce manual editing
- Validate each CSV file before uploading to avoid import errors
- Keep a copy of each uploaded CSV file for order tracking
