Configuring your store settings properly is essential for smooth dropshipping operations in AutoDS. The Store Settings tab provides centralized control over critical aspects of your store's functionality, including token management, currency configuration, gift card branding elements, and visual customization through watermarks.
​

To access the Store Settings tab in your AutoDS account:

Once inside Store Settings, you'll find multiple sections that control different aspects of your store's configuration and appearance.

The Default Currency section in Store Settings manages your store's currency configuration and ensures accurate profit calculations when buying from suppliers and selling to customers.

The currency for your store is defined when you create your store on your selling channel platform. When you connect your store to AutoDS, the default currency will automatically be set to match the currency you configured on your selling channel.

When selling internationally through dropshipping, it is common to buy from suppliers in one currency and sell to customers in another. AutoDS supports this process by automatically handling currency conversion for pricing and profit calculations.

AutoDS manages currency differently depending on your selling platform, ensuring accurate profit calculation even when buying and selling in different currencies:

Shopify:

If you need to change and resync your store's currency:

eBay and Amazon:

Other selling channels (Wix, WooCommerce, Etsy, TikTok, Facebook):

The exchange rate for a product updates only when there is already a reason to update the product, such as a change in the buy price. This means that currency conversions are recalculated automatically when supplier prices change, ensuring your margins remain accurate.

Exchange rates update automatically when supplier prices change, and the AutoDS Dashboard page displays data in your store's selling currency. Use filters to view order or profit data by individual currencies.

The Set Store Watermark section in Store Settings allows you to add a watermark to your product images to protect them from unauthorized use and strengthen your brand identity. Watermarks are visual markers applied to images during the upload process, creating a consistent visual presence across all your product listings.

Watermarks serve a dual purpose in dropshipping: protecting your product images from being reused by competitors and reinforcing your store's branding with a consistent visual presence.

To begin using watermarks, you first need to add a watermark image to Store Settings:

You can add multiple watermarks and manage them via the Select Watermark menu, where you can add new watermarks, set one as a default, or delete watermarks you no longer need.

Once enabled, AutoDS will automatically apply your default watermark to all images of future uploads. This automation ensures consistent branding across all new products without requiring manual intervention for each item.

Once you've added a watermark to your store, you can apply it to specific product images in your drafts:

The system will process and apply your default watermark to the selected product images. This manual application method is useful when you want to watermark existing products or when you need selective watermarking for specific items.

The Renew Token section inside Store Settings re-establishes a secure connection between AutoDS and your store when the connection expires or becomes unstable.

When you connect a store to AutoDS, AutoDS receives permission to perform actions on your behalf, such as updating listings, syncing orders, and managing inventory. This connection is secured with a digital token that can expire and needs renewal to keep automation running.

Maintaining a stable connection between AutoDS and your selling platform is critical for uninterrupted dropshipping operations. We recommend renewing the token and resyncing the store together whenever something appears out of sync between your selling channel and AutoDS, whether a product, order, or setting update isn't reflected on either side.

Use the Renew Token action when:

Signs that your token may have expired:

To renew your store token, there are two simple methods:

Method 1: Through the Store section (sidebar)

Method 2: Through Store Settings (recommended on mobile)

The Re-sync Store section in Store Settings refreshes all product and order data between your supplier and AutoDS to ensure everything remains aligned. Use this option if you made changes directly on the selling platform instead of through AutoDS, such as adding or deleting products. AutoDS cannot detect these changes automatically unless you resync the store, as the system relies on active monitoring of products managed through AutoDS.

Use the Resync Store action when:

You should also use the resync function if you encounter product editing issues. For example, if you see an error like "The variants have not been changed. The following IDs do not exist or do not belong to the product," the system may display an error indicating the product has ended on the selling platform. A resync can help realign the product's status and resolve such discrepancies.

To resync your store, there are two simple methods:

Method 1: Through the Store section (sidebar)

Method 2: Through Store Settings (recommended on mobile)

This will manually pull missing data and align product details between AutoDS and your store, ensuring that all products, orders, and settings are accurately reflected in both systems.

The Branding Settings section is usable only when working with AutoDS private suppliers and allows you to add a logo that appears on invoices and gift cards from AutoDS Private Suppliers. This feature creates a stronger brand presence and offers a more personal experience for your buyers, strengthening your store's branding and identity while adding a professional and personal touch to the customer experience.

The branding logo feature is supported only by AutoDS Private Suppliers, and not all of them offer this option. To check availability, look for the Branding option on the product page when browsing products. This ensures you know in advance which suppliers support custom branding for your orders.

When you upload a branding logo through the Store Settings, it appears on the "Thank You card" included in the order, creating a professional touch that reinforces your store's identity.
​

However, the product packaging, such as bags or boxes, remains unbranded. Items and packaging are shipped exactly as provided by the supplier, maintaining the supplier's standard packaging.

To add your branding logo to gift cards and invoices:

Once uploaded, your logo will automatically appear on future gift cards and invoices for orders fulfilled through supported private suppliers. The logo remains stored in your settings and will be applied to all future orders from compatible suppliers.

Additional settings and automations are available exclusively for Shopify and Wix stores.

The AutoDS .store domain integration feature allows you to easily switch your Shopify or Wix store's domain to a professional .store domain. Whether you are just starting or looking to strengthen your brand, this option adds a sleek, store-focused touch to your website URL.

Choosing a .store domain gives you:

To set up your .store domain through Store Settings:

The Shopify to AutoDS product sync feature automatically reflects product and price changes made on Shopify directly in AutoDS. When you update product details on Shopify, such as the title, description, tags, collections, or images, those changes will automatically sync to AutoDS.

This feature helps save time, ensures consistency between your selling channel and AutoDS, and reduces the chance of errors from manual updates. The sync is active by default for all connected Shopify stores, and no setup is required.

When you change the following product details on Shopify, AutoDS will sync the updates automatically:
