Install the Klaviyo extension in Magento 2
To ensure that Klaviyo can make the necessary API calls for integration, your Magento 2 server must have a publicly accessible hostname. Magento 2 servers hosted locally will be unable to fully integrate with Klaviyo.

Install with Composer (2.4+)
1. Log in to your Magento 2 server and navigate to the root directory of your Magento app from your command line tool. This guide shows example outputs for Terminal, but these steps can be modified for any command line tool of your choice.
2. Run the following command to access the latest version of the Klaviyo extension from Packagist. Packagist is a repository for PHP code libraries which allows you to easily install the latest version of the plugin.
composer require klaviyo/magento2-extensionIf you need to install an older version of the Magento 2 extension with Composer, specify the version you wish to install. To determine what version you need to install, review the chart. For example:
composer require klaviyo/magento2-extension:3.0.4
3. Run the following command to enable the Klaviyo extension you just downloaded:
php bin/magento module:enable Klaviyo_Reclaim --clear-static-content
4. As displayed in the sample output, you must now enable any additional modules. Run the following command to enable them:
php bin/magento setup:upgrade
5. Scan the output for Module 'Klaviyo_Reclaim' to confirm that the Klaviyo module is enabled and running.
6. To ensure that the CSS and JS on your Magento 2 store continues to work properly, you’ll need to run a static content deploy command.
php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f
7. You can now return to the Magento admin dashboard from your browser.

Setup OAuth
Next, you'll enable OAuth authentication to securely connect your Klaviyo account to the Magento 2 extension. Visit the guide here if you have an existing integration and need to add OAuth. If you are using Magento 2 version 2.2.0, visit the guide here to manually enable OAuth for your integration.
5. Navigate to the Setup OAuth tab.
6. Give your integration a memorable name in the Name field, you will need to locate it by this name later.
7. Click Save Config to proceed.
8. Locate System from the left hand navigation pane and select Integrations from the System tray.
9. Locate the integration with the name you used above and click Activate.
Activating the integration will open up a window requesting you to approve access.
10. Click Allow to be redirected to Klaviyo to complete the integration setup.
11. Sign in if you have not already done so, or confirm your account name and ID are correct and click Integrate Magento 2. This will add the Magento 2 integration to your Klaviyo account associated with the API key you used for setup. If you are logged into multiple Klaviyo accounts and the correct account is not displaying, log out of any other sessions.
If the window closes automatically, the connection was successful. You can also confirm by opening your Klaviyo account in a new browser tab or window and checking the integration’s settings from the Integrations tab.
If you receive the following error instead, ensure that the API keys used in the first step correspond to the account you are currently logged in to.
When establishing the connection between Magento and Klaviyo, if you receive a list of errors instead, you can click each error to learn more about the cause.
Set a newsletter list
Next, we need to select a list in Klaviyo use sync our newsletter subscribers to. You also have the option of using Klaviyo opt-in settings or Magento 2 opt-in settings for your chosen list.
12. Click Newsletter. From the dropdown, select the Klaviyo list you want to sync your Magento sign-up form to.
13. Click Save Config.
Enable consent at checkout
Next, you can choose to enable consent at checkout for email and SMS.
14. On the Configuration page, navigate to Consent at Checkout under Klaviyo.
There, you’ll see a section for collecting email consent and SMS consent. The two are treated separately, so that you can collect just email, just SMS, or both. If you gather both SMS and email subscribers, choose a different list for SMS than for email. This makes sure that consent will always be properly attributed to the correct channel.
Consent will not sync (for both email and SMS) until the customer finishes placing the order and, if applicable, confirms their subscription due to double opt-in.
Note that for users already logged in to your Magento 2 store, the email consent checkbox will not appear at checkout by default.
15. Under Email, select Yes for Subscribe contacts to email marketing at checkout.
16. Select an email list to sync, such as a newsletter.
17. Enter the email opt-in checkbox text you wish to use.
18. Under SMS, select Yes for Subscribe contacts to SMS marketing at checkout.
19. Choose the list you want your SMS contacts to sync to. For additional detail regarding these settings, check out our guide to collecting SMS consent at checkout.
20. Sort order allows you to change the placement of the email and SMS consent boxes. By default, these boxes appear under the first email input and shipping phone number field, respectively. Thus, if you haven’t rearranged the checkout page, you do not need to change the sort order. If you have changed the layout, adjust the sort order accordingly.
21. When you are finished, click Save Config in the upper right.
Enable webhooks
Next, you'll enable the Klaviyo webhooks in your Magento 2 account.
22. From the admin dashboard, navigate to Stores > Configuration.
23. Click on Klaviyo and select the Webhooks tab.
24. Create a webhook secret and enter it into the corresponding Webhook Secret field. The webhook secret is a key that Klaviyo will use for validation. This secret can be anything you choose, but we recommend creating a secure string of letters and numbers. Magento will hide your webhook secret with asterisks for security purposes, so be careful to enter it correctly.
25. Next to the webhooks you wish to enable, select Yes from the dropdown options. To read more about the webhooks supported by Klaviyo, check out the guide to webhooks for Magento 2.
26. Click Save Config.

This process syncs all future subscribers. Existing subscribers need to be manually migrated from your Magento list into Klaviyo.
3. Click the Advanced Options dropdown. Enable the following settings as needed. If none are required, click Connect to Magento 2 instead.
- Stores
All Magento 2 stores are synced to Klaviyo by default. This setting allows you to be selective about which stores you integrate with. Head over to Supporting Multiple Magento Stores to learn more. - Special Price Settings
We highly recommend enabling Special Price Settings if you're planning to use this feature. It is more difficult to enable this feature later. When configuring your integration settings, you will have the option to pull in "Special Price," which refers to a special sale price for items that can optionally take effect in a certain date range. You can find the Special Price option on the Magento 2 integration page, in the Advanced Options. When you enable Use special price for product prices when applicable, the product block will display the special price when applicable. When using a dynamic product feed, the special price will populate at send time. When manually selecting items from your catalog, the special price will populate once you select the product(s). For each product, there are 4 metadata fields that we will sync:
- price (Required float): The standard price of the item
- special_price (Optional float): This is a special sale price for the item. When this price is in effect, you will see this special_price next to a strikethrough of the price
- special_from_date (Optional date): This specifies a start date for special_price to take effect
- special_to_date (Optional date): This specifies an end date for special_price being in effect
- Custom Media Root URL
This setting allows you to change the default path for your site images. Enable this setting if you host your product images on a URL that is different than your website.
4. Click Connect to Magento 2.
Your data will begin to sync into Klaviyo in minutes. You've successfully enabled the Magento 2 integration.
After the initial historical data sync is complete, the Magento 2 integration syncs with Klaviyo every 30 minutes.
Monitor the historical data sync
When you first integrate with Magento 2, Klaviyo will sync the last 90 days of your Magento 2 data so you can get started right away with engaging your most recent customers. After the sync of your most recent 90 days of data, Klaviyo will begin your complete historical data sync. Depending on how many orders, customers and products your store has, it can take anywhere from a few minutes to several days to sync all of your data.
Once this historical sync is complete, new data will sync to Klaviyo every 30 minutes. To check the progress of the initial sync, click on the Metrics tab in the sidebar.
Find the Placed Order metric and change the date range of the graph to see which dates have been fully synced. When the sync is complete, the Magento 2 integration in the Integrations tab will be marked complete. If you want to verify for yourself that all data from Magento 2 is synced, you can cross-check the total orders for a few days or a week. Before you start validating, make sure your account's timezone matches the settings in Magento 2.
To check or update your account's timezone, go to the Account Settings page and check the Contact Information > Organization section.
Data synced with the Magento 2 integration
Klaviyo's Magento 2 integration and complementary extension pull key customer information from your Magento platform.
Klaviyo syncs all customers that subscribe to your Magento 2 newsletter list moving forward. It is important to ensure that any customer that makes it to your Magento 2 newsletter list has consented to receive marketing emails.
Here's some of the data we sync from Magento:
- Customer information including first name, last name, and location.
- Sales and order data including which items were purchased, item images, item categories and any discounts applied.
- Fulfillment, refunded and canceled order data.
- When people visit your website and which items they view; you won't have to add the Klaviyo tracking snippet to your site as this web tracking is already handled by our extension for Magento.
To learn more, head over to Review and Understand your Magento 2 Data.
Klaviyo limits the number of unique metrics you can create to 200. When you approach this threshold, you will be alerted via a warning in your account, along with an email to the account owner.
Convert Magento order values into a single currency
Klaviyo supports the conversion of all foreign currencies in Magento into one primary currency in Klaviyo. When this feature is enabled, the conversion happens when Magento syncs order data into Klaviyo. This is especially helpful if you have multiple stores with transactions in different currencies.
Klaviyo will check if the order_currency_code is the same as the set global_currency_code. If not, Klaviyo will convert the order total from the order currency to the global currency specified in your integration settings. This ensures that your financial analytics are accurate.
