  2. Click on the Import Customers button.


  3. Click on the Browse button to select the file for upload and then click on the Import CSV File button. Optionally, enter a name for the file you are uploading, such as "Customers September" to help keep track of your upload history. Remember to check the box for "First row contains column names" if your file contains descriptive headers.
