Redesigned shop email templates

All plans

Talk about a glow up! We’ve redesigned all of the email templates used for our seller's shops — including order receipts and shipping notifications. These new designs are clean, modern, friendlier on mobile devices, and provides more information to your customers about their orders. All shops immediately benefit from this with no opt-in or change required.

Improvements to shipping tracking

All plans

We've improved the order shipment process for manually added shipping details, including notifications to customers with tracking information. This update especially benefits our international sellers. Improvements include:

  • Added 18 new carriers

  • Based on your shop’s account country, we recommend certain carriers as "top" carriers which will more commonly match what they are looking for. Previously we were always recommending USPS, UPS and Fedex only.

  • Optimized the workflow to make it faster and less error-prone

Express Checkout for Stripe

All plans

We’ve added express checkout for shops using Stripe as their payment processor. Express checkout allows your customers to quickly complete their purchase by skipping billing and shipping information, leading to higher conversion rates and increased sales. Express checkout works with Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Stripe Link.
