FAQ
Frequently asked questions
About Marqly
What does Marqly do, in one sentence?
Marqly attaches GPSR-required safety information (manufacturer, EU responsible person, warnings, identifier) to your Shopify product pages, in 26 European languages.
How long does setup take?
For a small catalog, 10-15 minutes: install, enter your manufacturer details, enter your EU responsible person, assign warnings, publish.
Does Marqly work with my theme?
Yes, as long as you're on Online Store 2.0 (any theme released since mid-2021). Marqly installs as a Shopify App Embed block, which works without code edits.
Will it affect my store's performance?
The widget renders server-side data and adds a small block to your product page. No external scripts on the storefront, no third-party trackers.
Languages and coverage
Which languages does Marqly support?
All 24 official EU languages plus Icelandic and Norwegian - 26 in total, covering every EU market plus Iceland and Norway.
What if I sell in a language Marqly doesn't yet support?
The widget will fall back to your default storefront language. We're prioritising new languages based on customer demand - write in if there's one you need.
Does Marqly translate my manufacturer details automatically?
No. Manufacturer names, addresses and contact details are passed through unchanged - translation isn't appropriate for those fields. The field labels and structural text are localized. Warning text is something you can provide per language.
GPSR scope
Does Marqly make me GPSR-compliant?
Marqly handles the product-page information requirements of Article 19 - what your storefront has to show. It does not turn you into a manufacturer, find you a responsible person, write your warnings, or replace your technical documentation. See our GPSR primer for the full picture.
Do I still need an EU responsible person?
Yes, if you sell to EU consumers. Marqly stores and displays your responsible person's details on every product page, but you have to designate that person separately.
What about UK GPSR?
The UK has its own product safety regime (the post-Brexit equivalent of GPSR is still evolving). Marqly currently focuses on EU GPSR (Regulation 2023/988). UK-specific support is on the roadmap.
Pricing and billing
Is the free plan really free?
Yes. Up to 25 products, forever, no credit card required.
How does billing work?
Through Shopify's billing API. Marqly charges show up on your normal Shopify bill.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Uninstall removes Marqly's data from your store. We retain backups for 30 days for support purposes, then delete.
Data and privacy
Where is my data stored?
Your GPSR configuration (manufacturer, importer, responsible-person and warning details) lives inside your own Shopify store as app metafields - not in Marqly's database. Marqly's own database holds only your store's login sessions, AI-usage counters and an audit log. See our privacy policy for hosting details.
Is Marqly GDPR-compliant?
Marqly only handles merchant configuration data (manufacturer, RP, warnings) and does not collect your customers' personal data. See our privacy policy for the full breakdown.
