How to Add the LeadTruffle Website Texting Widget to Shopify in 3 Simple Steps

Never Miss a Lead on Shopify Again
Imagine this: a homeowner visits your Shopify store looking for gutter cleaning. They click your contact page, then get distracted by kids, emails, or the neighbor's barking dog. With LeadTruffle's SMS chat widget, you can catch those would-be customers before they disappear.
Here's how to install our texting widget in your Shopify store - no developer needed.
What You'll Need:
- A LeadTruffle account (14-day free trial included)
- Editor access to your Shopify store
- 5 minutes
Method 1: Install Through Shopify Theme Editor
Step 1: Copy Your Widget Code
- Go to Chat Widget Styles in LeadTruffle
- Click "Copy Code" under your preferred widget design
Step 2: Paste into Shopify
- In your Shopify admin:
- Go to Online Store > Themes
- Click Actions > Edit code
- Open

tag - Save changes
Step 3: Test Live
