Your Spiffy store must be launched and accessible (not password protected) to be able to submit your products to Facebook. Every product must also have a unique SKU to show up in your feed.

			'''Tip:''' When you create or edit a data feed, you can set a '''Default Product Category'''. Products that have no Product Category of their own use this category in the feed, so no product is left out. This is useful when your product types do not map cleanly to a standardized category. '''Every product must also have a Standardized Product Category set, or the data feed must have a Default Product Category, to be included in the feed.'''
