Platform Changelog

For EU merchants in the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and United Kingdom, we've added automatic translation updates to Translate & Adapt. Until now, editing a product description or any…

Shopify now shares your compare-at price with AI shopping agents through Shopify Catalog, so AI agents can see when a product is marked down. Previously, AI agents reading Catalog only saw the current price and markdown prices displayed in storefront were not shown.

You can now automate your return and refund, contact information, terms of service, shipping, and legal notice policies to help you launch your store faster and expand into new markets. Your automated policies stay up to date as your store settings change and in sync with…

You can now review and export purchase order data in Shopify Analytics.

We have released International Payments from Balance for the US. This gives merchants a more cost-effective way to pay their international suppliers, with transparent pricing and no extra setup. International payments from Balance will let eligible merchants pay recipients…

Shop can now verify who a shopper is while they're browsing your store, even before they make a purchase.

We’ve released improved support for 3 right-to-left languages (Arabic, Urdu, and Hebrew) in both Admin and Storefronts, including checkout, customer accounts and the Horizon family of themes.

You can now include discounts in Rollouts to run coordinated campaigns and test different offers before launching more broadly.

Canvas is a new design surface for your online store. Every page is laid out together in one interactive, infinite workspace, so you can see how your whole store feels and work on any part of it in context.

Your reports show what changed. You know why. Now, you're able to capture that story directly in Shopify Analytics.

Shop's web experience has moved from shop.app to shop.com. Your store, products, and channel settings are unaffected — the change only affects the web address shoppers use to reach Shop.

You can now set return window overrides by market for specific collections, products, or variants. Overrides let you choose a different return period than your default return window - for example, 14 days for seasonal items instead of your standard 90 days.

Staff can now create local delivery orders at checkout in Shopify POS. When a customer can't take an item home, you can arrange delivery in the same sale. You no longer need to ask them to reorder online or leave notes on the order.

Until now, the color, material, fit, and other attributes you set when you categorize a product stayed on the product page. To see which materials or colors actually sell, you had to export.

Shopify POS now lets store staff run cycle and full stock counts directly in POS, making it easier to count inventory on the sales floor while keeping planning, review, and approval in Shopify Admin.

If you attach a metaobject to a product, variant, customer, or order through a metafield, those fields can now be used in Analytics. A designer country, a warranty term, or a loyalty tier can group and filter a report the same way a custom metafield can.

Starting October 23, 2026, for merchants using Shopify Tax or Tax Platform in the United States, return shipping fees will be taxed like any other shipping charge. Shopify calculates and applies the tax automatically, so you don’t need to fix under-collection on returns.

The Developer Dashboard shows how your custom apps perform, not only how they are set up.

We now provides a more complete and timely view of shipping costs and duties.

Rollouts has a redesigned setup experience that makes it easier to plan a launch, run a temporary event, or test changes to your store.
