A Shopify account: Shopify is a service that runs shopping software on different sites and apps. Shopify has a variety of different plans but, luckily, to open a basic Facebook Shopify store, all you need is their Shopify Lite plan, which only costs $9 a month.

When you're ready, select Save product at the bottom of the page.
