Proofed

How Proofed Works

A quick overview of the proof request and approval workflow inside Shopify.

What is Proofed?

Proofed adds a structured approval workflow to custom orders. Instead of chasing customers over email, you send a proof link directly from the order page — the customer reviews and approves (or requests changes) in one click.

The Workflow at a Glance

  1. Order comes in — customer places an order that needs a custom proof.
  2. You upload the proof — attach a file or link from the order page in Shopify admin.
  3. Customer gets notified — a branded email is sent with a link to the approval page.
  4. Customer reviews and responds — approve, or leave feedback requesting changes.
  5. You're notified — the order timeline is updated and you can proceed to production.

Supported File Types

You can attach proofs as:

  • Images — JPG, PNG, WebP
  • Documents — PDF
  • Links — any URL (e.g., a Figma share link or Google Drive preview)

Customer Experience

The customer sees a clean, mobile-friendly approval page — no login required. They can zoom into images, leave a written comment, and click Approve or Request changes.
