Shopify

Commerce platform for creating online stores and selling products across multiple channels. Supports online and in-person selling, direct and wholesale, with a unified admin, checkout, and fulfillment layer.

Millions of merchants have collectively processed over one trillion dollars in sales on the platform. Notable brands include Glossier, Gymshark, Mattel, Brooklinen, and Caraway. Shopify Checkout converts about 15% higher on average than other commerce platforms and surfaces stores to over 150 million buy-ready shoppers. The App Store offers 13,000+ commerce apps for inventory, marketing, fulfillment, and customization.

Key capabilities:

• Online store with theme-based or custom storefronts, including headless via Hydrogen
• Point-of-sale for in-person selling with offline and online sync
• Multichannel selling across social, marketplaces, and direct-to-consumer
• Customizable checkout and extensible payments
• Centralized Shopify Admin for products, orders, and analytics
• REST and GraphQL APIs for apps, themes, and custom integrations
• Liquid templating for themes and the Shopify CLI for app and theme development

Teams use Shopify to launch D2C stores, run omnichannel retail, and scale from solo sellers to enterprise. Developers extend the platform with themes and apps via the Admin API and Storefront API, and build custom storefronts with Hydrogen and the Shopify CLI.
