# Multi store support
> Learn how to export multiple rules from one store and import them into another Shopify store.
## Overview
You can copy over rules between different Shopify stores without having to create them manually. You can export rules from one store as a ZIP file and then import that file into another store. This saves time, ensures consistency, and makes it easier to manage similar rules across multiple stores. You can also create a backup of your rules in case you need to restore them later.
## Usage
### Export rules
Select one or more rules in your current store and export them. The selected rules can be downloaded as a **ZIP file** to your computer or exported as individual files.
Here are the steps to export rules:
You can select one or multiple rules that you want to export. Then, click on the three dots and select **"Export"**. Then a popup will appear.
Alternatively, you can export a single rule by opening the rule, clicking **"More actions"**, and then selecting **"Export"** to export that rule individually.
In the popup, choose one of the following options:
* **ZIP archive** (Downloads a single ZIP file containing all the selected rules)
* **Individual files** (Downloads each selected rule as a separate JSON file with staggered timing)
Lastly, click "Export" to export the rules.
### Import rules
Open another Shopify store, go to the import option, and upload the previously exported **ZIP file** or individual rule JSON files. All the rules inside the ZIP or the selected JSON files will be added to the new store.
Here are the steps to import rules:
Click the **"Import"** button. Then a popup will appear.
In the popup, add your files or drag and drop them (for example, `Rename payment methods-besure-export.json`).
Lastly, click the **"Import"** button in the popup to import the rules into the store.
## Example use case
Let’s say you manage two Shopify stores:
* **Store A** → already has discount rules for different customer groups.
* **Store B** → needs the same discount rules.
Instead of recreating the rules from scratch in **Store B**, you can:
Export the rules from Store A as a ZIP file.
Import that ZIP file into Store B.
The rules will be imported and ready for use immediately.
Alternatively, you can export a single rule by opening the rule, clicking **"More actions"**, and then selecting **"Export"** to export that rule individually.
