Welcome to Superco: On Shopify, a weekly bulletin to keep you up to date with Shopify Plus news and updates.
Each week, we send a snapshot of Shopify developments and our expert opinion on how they can help optimise your online store. This week, we’ve got a lot for you.
As always, if you have a specific question related to Shopify, get in touch with the team at tm@superco.io — we’re happy to chat.
From October 31, 2023, to improve privacy compliance, Shopify is updating how online stores collect customer data. For customers in the EEA and UK, marketing and analytics will now be collected only before or after consent. Any merchant that was partially collecting before consent is now collecting data after consent.
We say: This change improves legal compliance for all affected merchants. Retailers should also update how they collect data to reduce risk.
In order to set up Shopify POS on a new or updated device, a staff user can now log in to the app by entering their email and password. Once logged in and set up, anyone with POS access can unlock the app with their PIN.
We say: Merchants can now offer colleagues POS with ease, without granting access to privileged information. This upgrade lessens the workload associated with granting access, and offers brands more control over what staff can see.
The Translate & Adapt app now supports global search across all languages for store resources. App users will benefit from an improved navigation experience that makes it easier to quickly find resources for translating.
We say: Great for brands operating in multiple regions. This enhancement makes it more convenient to search for store resources across all available languages.
If a brand sells in local currencies and has access to one-page checkout, customers will check out in the currency that has been set for the country of their shipping address. If a customer chooses to ship to a country or region that differs from the one they selected on the storefront, then the currency will change to match their shipping destination at checkout. Customers will see the total cost of their purchases in their local currency, including currency conversion fees.
We say: More transparency and convenience for consumers shopping with brands that convert currency based on their chosen country — a Shopify Markets feature.
On October 20, GeoIP functionality for Plus merchants who currently have the Geoip setting enabled will be rolled into the “Automatic Redirection” setting within Settings -> Preferences. Pages will automatically adjust to show region-specific content based on the merchant’s customer’s GeoIP.
We say: Brands can now offer personalised and relevant shopping experiences for worldwide customers by redirecting visitors to the website most local to them. Visitors will therefore see local prices and content without having to choose an applicable country.
Improvements have been made to the Publish Product and Hide Product actions. Both actions now support being able to choose one or more sales channels as part of the action. This means that merchants can use Flow to automate publishing and unpublishing for all sales channels.
We say: Maintaining accurate product availability across sales channels is a great way to upkeep a solid reputation as a reliable brand. It can also impact SEO ranking on Google, so this improvement is great for retailers that want to stay visible to new audiences.
POS checkout infrastructure has been updated and as a result, there is a change to the display of shipping methods for POS orders. "Retail - no shipping required" will now be displayed as a shipping method for POS orders. Previously, a shipping line was not assigned to POS orders.
We say: This change may potentially require workflow updates for shops who have integrations that rely on the presence or absence of a shipping line, or those who use shipping line information as input for other systems. Merchants that use the shipping line should reach out to their third-party provider to discuss possible workflow changes.
