Before submitting a request be sure to search for the product's SKU, UPC and first part of the name to see if you're able to locate the item 2. In the case that no results show, use the help button on the bottom left of this page or merchant dashboard to contact us. Please include information about the product you're missing: UPC, SKU and name along with a screenshot of the item directly from your POS **Why am I seeing duplicate items?**  We identify a product by its size, vintage, and barcode. If any of these values are updated, it will create a new product, and the old product might be deleted until a few syncs later. **What is the timeframe for new items to populate on City Hive?** Sync times vary by POS system and can take up to 24 hours. If an item still doesn't appear after 24 hours, submit a ticket to [support@cityhive.net](mailto:support@cityhive.net) . Note that new products already in our catalog may require a few syncs to show up, while products not yet in our catalog can take up to 24 hours — they must first go through offer creation before appearing on the dashboard. - [Get Set Up](https://support.cityhive.net/get-set-up?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Create Your Merchant Account](https://support.cityhive.net/get-set-up?hsLang=en#create-your-merchant-account) - [Configure Your Settings](https://support.cityhive.net/get-set-up?hsLang=en#configure-your-settings) - [Launch Your Website and App](https://support.cityhive.net/get-set-up?hsLang=en#launch-your-website-and-app) - [Marketplace Integrations](https://support.cityhive.net/get-set-up?hsLang=en#marketplace-integrations) - [Orders - Need Help?](https://support.cityhive.net/orders-need-help?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Shipping](https://support.cityhive.net/orders-need-help?hsLang=en#shipping) - [Delivery Optimization](https://support.cityhive.net/orders-need-help?hsLang=en#delivery-optimization) - [Digital Gift Cards](https://support.cityhive.net/orders-need-help?hsLang=en#digital-gift-cards) - [Inventory Management](https://support.cityhive.net/inventory-management?hsLang=en#main-content) - [City Hive POS](https://support.cityhive.net/inventory-management?hsLang=en#city-hive-pos) - [Set Up and Sync](https://support.cityhive.net/inventory-management?hsLang=en#set-up-and-sync) - [Update Product Information](https://support.cityhive.net/inventory-management?hsLang=en#update-product-information) - [Standard Inventory Management](https://support.cityhive.net/inventory-management?hsLang=en#standard-inventory-management) - [Customize Your Website & App](https://support.cityhive.net/customize-your-website-app?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Creating and Editing Pages](https://support.cityhive.net/customize-your-website-app?hsLang=en#creating-and-editing-pages) - [Graphics & Design](https://support.cityhive.net/customize-your-website-app?hsLang=en#graphics-design) - [Content Organization](https://support.cityhive.net/customize-your-website-app?hsLang=en#content-organization) - [Promotions](https://support.cityhive.net/promotions?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Promotions](https://support.cityhive.net/promotions?hsLang=en#promotions) - [Wine Clubs](https://support.cityhive.net/wine-clubs?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Wine Club](https://support.cityhive.net/wine-clubs?hsLang=en#wine-club) - [Marketing & Customer Engagement](https://support.cityhive.net/marketing-customer-engagement?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Email, Push & SMS Marketing](https://support.cityhive.net/marketing-customer-engagement?hsLang=en#email-push-sms-marketing) - [Customer Acquisition & Management](https://support.cityhive.net/marketing-customer-engagement?hsLang=en#customer-acquisition-management) - [Autopilot](https://support.cityhive.net/autopilot?hsLang=en) - [Events](https://support.cityhive.net/events?hsLang=en) - [Overview & Reports](https://support.cityhive.net/overview-reports?hsLang=en) - [Payments & Billing](https://support.cityhive.net/payments-billing?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Transactions](https://support.cityhive.net/payments-billing?hsLang=en#transactions) - [Payments](https://support.cityhive.net/payments-billing?hsLang=en#payments) - [Disbursements](https://support.cityhive.net/payments-billing?hsLang=en#disbursements) - [Chargebacks](https://support.cityhive.net/payments-billing?hsLang=en#chargebacks) - [Ads & Analytics](https://support.cityhive.net/ads-analytics?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Analytics](https://support.cityhive.net/ads-analytics?hsLang=en#analytics) - [Ads](https://support.cityhive.net/ads-analytics?hsLang=en#ads) - [FAQs](https://support.cityhive.net/faqs?hsLang=en) [![Chill listening crop-3](https://support.cityhive.net/hs-fs/hubfs/serviceorg-normal.png?width=26&height=24&name=serviceorg-normal.png "Chill listening crop-3")](http://cityhive.net) City Hive Help Center Copyright © 2026, City Hive, Inc.
