Using Test Email Addresses
When testing purchases, we recommend using a unique email address as emails that are linked to existing customers in your Shopify store can skew your test results.
If you have a Gmail address, it's easy to make unique emails for testing! Gmail allows you to create multiple unique email addresses using your main address. For example, if your email address is email@gmail.com, you can create a new Thinkific user using email+student@gmail.com.

Disconnect and Reconnect Your Shopify Store
Sometimes issues can be resolved by disconnecting and reconnecting Thinkific from your Shopify store. You will lose product data when disconnecting, so make sure to check out the troubleshooting steps above before you continue.

Collaborator Access
