Shopify, a global commerce company, has unveiled Shop, a mobile shopping app for a better online shopping experience from product discovery to package delivery. Shop offers allows users to easily discover local businesses, receive relevant product recommendations from their favourite brands, check out effortlessly, and track all of their online orders.

“We are setting out to reimagine the online shopping experience for customers — to provide them greater convenience, transparency, and personalisation. As a result of social distancing and stay-at-home measures, customers have become more reliant on online ordering than ever before as it becomes more challenging to stay connected to the brands they love,” the company said.

Designed to bridge the gaps in online shopping, Shop offers users the ability to easily discover local businesses, receive relevant product recommendations from their favourite brands, check out effortlessly, and track all of their online orders.

“We’ve brought together our expertise in commerce and proven features from Shop Pay, a one-click accelerated checkout, and Arrive, an app to track online orders, to make purchasing and order tracking frictionless for shoppers,” the company said. To date, Shop Pay has processed over $8 billion in sales, while Arrive has been used by 16 million shoppers to track their ecommerce orders.

“Shopify has focused the last decade on solving complex problems for entrepreneurs by making commerce seamless and accessible,” said Carl Rivera, general manager of Shop. “Now, we want to do the same for customers. We set out to solve the common pain points in the customer’s shopping journey today, while developing specific features, like local business discovery, that will be relevant today and in the future.”

Shop’s features include local filters through which Shop’s users can locate nearby merchants to support local businesses. The app identifies businesses currently offering shipping, pick-up, and highlights return policies.

It allows seamless payment and checkout, and transparent tracking. With the technology of Arrive, all order and tracking information is stored in one convenient place. Tracking shows the status of each package and provides real-time updates.
