This is the self-serve quickstart for Shopify publishers: it walks you from sign-up to publishing, start to finish. You can complete setup on your own — work through the steps below, finish your integration, then signal your Disco team when you're ready for review.
Not on Shopify? Follow Getting started with DiscoOffers (Non-Shopify) instead.
1. Complete the onboarding wizard
Start at platform.disconetwork.com/login. Choose Get started to create your account with your work email, then pick DiscoOffers (earn revenue as a publisher) on the "Where would you like to go?" screen. If you already have a Disco account, sign in at the same link.
Disco walks you through a guided setup — Brand Discovery → Brand Profile → Categories → Partner Preferences → Review & Terms — auto-filling what it can from your website, so you mostly confirm:
- Brand Profile — your name, logo, tagline, and website(s).
- Categories — confirm your primary category. This also tells Disco's model not to show advertisers in your own category, so there's no overlap with what you sell. Be as specific as possible, but don't over-select — too many categories limits your earning potential — and only pick subcategories that directly relate to your product catalog.
- Partner Preferences — set your exclusions (see the next step).
- Review & Terms — review your setup and agree to the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy before payouts.
Already a Disco advertiser? Switch to the publisher side and your brand info carries over automatically — no re-entry. The wizard pre-selects your categories from your brand profile; verify them, and note that sensitive subcategories are auto-excluded from the start.
2. Set your exclusions
Decide which advertisers and categories can appear on your pages before you go live. You can exclude whole categories, block individual brands, and auto-exclude sensitive categories in one step. See Setting up exclusions.
3. Install DiscoOffers on your store
Add DiscoOffers to both of your post-purchase surfaces — your thank-you page and your order status page. Your setup isn't complete until your integration is live, so finish this step before you signal you're ready.
Pick the path that matches your store:
- On Checkout Extensibility (most stores) → Publishing DiscoOffers on your Shopify store
- Not on Checkout Extensibility yet → Publishing DiscoOffers with the Disco Script
4. Signal you're ready
Once it's set up, let your Disco team know you're ready for review — reply to your onboarding email or submit a help request. (No publish step needed — DiscoOffers switches on automatically once your onboarding is complete.)
5. Complete your payout and agreement forms
After you signal you're ready, your Disco team reaches out with two forms: the ACH form (your bank details, routed to our finance team so you get paid without delay) and the publisher agreement, which includes the details of your revenue share. See Reporting and payouts.
6. Review and go live
Your Disco team confirms your setup — exclusions configured, DiscoOffers published and rendering on both pages — and then activates your account. For what comes after setup, including review and any agreement steps, see Going live: review and activation.
Onboarding is self-directed: you set the pace, and your Disco team is the backstop when you need them.
