History and Development

Shopify was founded in 2006 in Ottawa after its founders built an internal platform to support their own online retail business.

The company officially launched its e-commerce platform the same year, initially targeting small merchants seeking accessible online store tools.

Over time, Shopify expanded its features to include payment integrations, customizable storefronts, marketing tools, and enterprise capabilities.

In 2015, Shopify completed its initial public offering (IPO), listing shares on both the NYSE and TSX, accelerating product development and global expansion.

In recent years, the company has expanded into omnichannel commerce, POS systems, automation, and artificial intelligence tools, positioning itself as a major global commerce infrastructure provider.
