# Shopify Flow: Klaviyo and Joy Loyalty

{% hint style="info" %}
This feature is available for **Essential, Advanced, and Ultimate**
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
**Joy now supports native Klaviyo integration — no Shopify Flow required.**

You can connect Joy directly to Klaviyo and use real-time trigger events (tier changes, point earnings, birthdays, referrals, and more) without going through Shopify Flow. This is the recommended approach.

👉 See [Joy and Klaviyo](https://gitlab.com/avada/gitbook/joy-new-gitbook/-/blob/main/email-marketing-and-sms/joy-and-klaviyo.md) for the full setup guide.

### Using Shopify Flow as an alternative

If you prefer to route Klaviyo actions through Shopify Flow — for example, to combine Klaviyo sends with other Flow logic — you can still set up a workflow using the steps below.

{% step %}
**Open Shopify Flow and create a new workflow**

Access Shopify Flow, create a new workflow, and choose **Joy Loyalty** as the trigger.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
**Select Klaviyo as the action**

Select an action and choose **Klaviyo**. This allows you to automatically send a campaign when the trigger conditions are met.

{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

For most use cases, the [native Joy × Klaviyo integration](https://gitlab.com/avada/gitbook/joy-new-gitbook/-/blob/main/email-marketing-and-sms/joy-and-klaviyo.md) provides more trigger events, richer event properties, and easier setup — without needing Shopify Flow as a middleman.
