    Additional Business Information
    Additional Info
    Shopify is a "Software as a Service" (SaaS) platform that simplifies the process for an entrepreneur to start a business. All of their merchants run independent stores and are responsible for their own development, content, operations etc. Shopify does not build or develop retail stores on behalf of its customers, but rather provides the tools and software for merchants to build their own brand.

    Consumers who purchase from a Shopify merchant are dealing directly with that merchant and Shopify is not a party to the transaction. For legal and security reasons, Shopify is not able to disclose any merchant's contact information that isn't already publicly available. The majority of merchants will have posted their business contact information on a 'Contact Us' page or in their site's footer. Consumers may also review the merchant's social media pages to see if contact information is available.

    Consumers who do not receive their order within a reasonable timeframe can file a claim through PayPal, or their financial institution.

    BBB Business Profiles may not be reproduced for sales or promotional purposes.

    BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

    When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this business, please let the business know that you contacted BBB for a BBB Business Profile.

    As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation.
