Standalone
Catalogly Standalone
Create professional product catalogs without connecting an online store.
Catalogly Standalone gives you the same catalog-making tools as our Shopify app, without requiring an online store. Import products from CSV or XLS files, or from an existing PDF, and create professional PDF catalogs, wholesale line sheets, and interactive online flipbooks.
We usually set up standalone accounts within one business day.
Import from CSV, XLS, or PDF
Bring in your existing product data from any system that can export a CSV, an XLS spreadsheet, or an existing PDF — no online store required.
Choose from 35+ catalog layouts
Customize fonts, colors, product information, and branding to match your business.
Create PDF catalogs and flipbooks
Export a print-ready PDF, or publish the same catalog as an interactive online flipbook.
Update your catalog anytime
Your catalogs stay saved to your account, with the same shareable link when you make changes.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use Catalogly without Shopify?
Catalogly Standalone works without Shopify or any other online store. Import your product data from CSV or XLS files, or from an existing PDF, and build your catalog from there.
What can I create with Catalogly Standalone?
Print-ready PDF catalogs, wholesale line sheets, and interactive online flipbooks, all generated from your imported product data.
Can I update a standalone catalog later?
Your catalogs stay saved to your Catalogly account, so you can change products, prices, layouts, or design settings and generate an updated version whenever you need one.
Is Catalogly Standalone different from the Shopify app?
Standalone and Shopify use the same catalog-making platform underneath. The difference is how your product data gets in: standalone imports it directly, while Shopify syncs it automatically from your store.
