We’re excited to announce our new integration with Google Shopping!

This feature automatically verifies and syncs your store with Google Merchant Center, allowing your products to be listed for free on Google Shopping. Effortlessly reach new customers and boost traffic to your shop – just connect and watch your products appear in relevant Google search results!

Plus, once connected, you’ll have the ability to run paid ads on Google to further promote your products. These ads, which you manage directly in Google Merchant Center, offer even more opportunities to reach potential customers.

We added a new App Center to showcase all of our apps and integrations available to Big Cartel sellers. Each app includes a dedicated page that helps walk through setup and key features. Many apps now offer simple one-click installations, making it easier than ever to get started!

We’ve also added new apps for DropInBlog, Chatway, Common Ninja for our sellers on paid plans.

Introducing Tap to Pay for Big Cartel’s iPhone and Android apps! Sellers on paid plans can use our mobile apps to accept payments more easily without relying solely on cash or needing an external card reader.

We’ve also made improvements to the in-person checkout experience that makes it easier to:

• see which products were added to the cart

• add multiple quantities of a variant to the cart when selecting

• add a customer’s email address for receipts

For paid sellers that ship from Canada, you can now create and print shipping labels directly from your Big Cartel admin. The best part? Save up to 90% in shipping costs!

We released a new enhanced product table view for all sellers. This table view gives you the ability to sort, filter, and directly edit product details without having to navigate to each individual product.

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.

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

We’ve partnered with Fera.ai as a new app available for paid sellers to enhance their shops with ratings and reviews. Setup is quick and simple — no coding required!

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.
