Keep your data backed up. GeekSeller maintains data backups and does whatever we can to prevent errors or overwrite of data, but due to the complexity of some integrations, and the uniqueness of each seller’s setup, there is always a chance that some data may be lost or overwritten. Before you start using GeekSeller or make any significant adjustments to integrations, new functionalities, or uploading information, always create a backup of your data. Read more.
