Shopify Digital Product Support Instructions Copy
Use this page to draft support instructions for digital product customers that reduce avoidable support questions. The copy is informational and self-serve, with no checkout, waitlist, custom service offer, or delivery-time promise.
Customer moment
A buyer needs to know what support can help with, what information to include, and what not to send.
Safe boundary
Do not turn support instructions into a custom service offer. Keep privacy boundaries explicit.
