As a Shopify merchant or developer, staying up-to-date with the latest platform updates is crucial to unlocking the full potential of your store. Recently, Shopify has introduced several key updates that can help you streamline your operations, expand your customer base, and increase sales. In this article, we'll explore the most useful recent Shopify updates, including multi-currency payouts, unified staff management, and expanded Shopify Collective features.
Multi-Currency Payouts: More Flexibility for Merchants
Shopify has expanded its multi-currency payout support to include the United States, Hong Kong, and Singapore. This update allows eligible Shopify Payments merchants to receive payouts in multiple currencies, reducing the need for currency conversions and making it easier to manage funds across markets. For example, merchants in the United States can now receive payouts in CAD, EUR, AUD, and GBP, while Singapore merchants can receive payouts in EUR, GBP, and JPY.
Unified Staff Management: Streamlining Team Operations
Shopify has also introduced unified staff management, allowing you to manage your entire team, including POS and admin users, in one place. This update includes new features such as the ability to assign organization-level roles, suspend and reactivate seasonal staff, and assign multiple roles to users. Additionally, Shopify has introduced new high-trust roles, including POS Administrator, POS Device Setup, and Organization POS Administrator, to help you manage your team more effectively.
Expanded Shopify Collective Features: More Opportunities for Growth
Shopify Collective has been expanded to include new features such as shipping performance metrics and a Verified Tracking badge. This update allows suppliers to earn a badge by maintaining consistent carrier tracking coverage across all orders, increasing their discoverability to retailers. Additionally, Shopify Collective is now available in Australia, allowing retailers to expand their catalog without holding inventory or upfront costs.
