Over a decade ago, we started a store to sell snowboards online. None of the e-commerce solutions at the time gave us the control we needed to be successful—so we built our own. Today, businesses of all sizes use Shopify, whether they’re selling online, in retail stores, or on the go.

Making commerce better for everyone

We help people achieve independence by making it easier to start, run, and grow a business. We believe the future of commerce has more voices, not fewer, so we’re reducing the barriers to business ownership to make commerce better for everyone.

Creating a community for impact

Shopify has grown from 5 people in a coffee shop to over 10,000 across the globe. With millions of businesses powered by Shopify, we invest in our people and our communities. Our Social Impact initiatives focus on enabling an equitable future by building products and programs to support our team and merchants.
