The Klaviyo integration in Seguno allows you to sync your contact list without disrupting your existing flows in Klaviyo, all while maintaining compliance with anti-spam laws.
Step-by-step migration guide
This connection will import all contacts from the selected lists in Klaviyo into Shopify as customers. If a subscriber's profile exists in both Klaviyo and Shopify, the Shopify profile will be updated to match the information in the Klaviyo profile. This connection will transfer the contact's email, first name, last name, and subscription status into a customer record in Shopify.
To migrate from Klaviyo to Seguno:
The connection requires an API key from Klaviyo to transfer contacts to Seguno
Find your Site ID and create a Private API key
Open your Klaviyo account and navigate to your API Keys
Copy the Public API Key/site ID and save it to reference in Seguno later.
In the Private API Keys section, click Create Private API Key
Name the Private API Key
Select Full Access Key
If you prefer to limit access, Seguno requires Read Access to the following API scopes: Accounts, Lists, Profiles, and Subscriptions.
Click Create
In the Your Private Key section, click the copy icon to copy your Private API Key.
**Do not proceed without copying the Private API Key - it cannot be accessed again.**
Keep your Site ID and Private API Key for the connection in Seguno
Connect Klaviyo to Seguno
From your Seguno Dashboard, in the Connections card, click View all
Select Klaviyo
Click Connect
Add the Site ID and Private API key from your Klaviyo account settings.

Note: The time it takes to sync your lists with Shopify varies depending on the size of your Klaviyo audience list(s). For large lists, expect the sync to multiple hours.

Next steps in Seguno
Domain Authentication and Warming
When you first install Seguno, you will be asked to complete the following deliverability-related tasks to improve your reputation as a sender and reduce bounces/complaints.
Spam Protect keeps your list clean. It will monitor your account and unsubscribe bad emails before they hurt your deliverability.
Domain authentication allows emails to be sent from your domain to establish trust and build your own isolated reputation. This is a simple process, but we're happy to help. If you're using Shopify as your domain host, we handle the entire process for you.
Domain warming automatically throttles your first newsletter send to help introduce your domain and typical volume to inbox providers. We also leverage your order data in Shopify and email engagement data from Klaviyo to automatically sort them so your most engaged subscribers receive it first. You'll see a banner at the top of a newsletter detail page describing that with an estimate of how long it will take. So, just design a nice, enticing newsletter to send to all your subscribers, and we'll do the rest.
FAQs
What happens to contacts that exist in Shopify but not in Klaviyo?
Contacts that exist only in Shopify will not be modified, but you should check them to ensure these contacts have not been abandoned for too long and are therefore likely to mark your emails as spam.
Can I copy over my email templates?
No, you'll need to recreate your emails using the Seguno editor. To help you get started quickly, we have prebuilt emails for each standard automation, a number of starter templates, and various designed templates for special events. If you need help designing your emails, feel free to contact our support team.
