Why this partnership, why right now?
Shopify shares our vision and mission of empowering entrepreneurs and operators to own their destiny and build lasting businesses.
Shopify has built one of the most trusted ecommerce platforms in the industry to start, grow, market, and manage a retail business of any size with reliability, creativity, and speed-to-market for retailers. This has been crucial over the last decade as ecommerce demand surged and third-party platforms on which retailers relied to grow their customer base changed their algorithms, their rules, and their policies without notice.
Klaviyo has built one of the most trusted marketing platforms in the industry. New and scaling businesses alike can connect with their customers across various channels to deliver messages that create lasting connections and, of course, help generate sales.
The next era of ecommerce will be marked by a continued shift toward consumer privacy and the forming of strong digital relationships.
The next era of ecommerce will be marked by a continued shift toward consumer privacy and the forming of strong digital relationships. Consumers now have an increased expectation of merchants to deliver smooth, customer-friendly experiences, and there is a continued proliferation of channels in which brands must deliver these experiences.
This partnership builds on the combined vision of two powerful platforms to help founders and operators not just weather the new era––whatever it brings––but thrive within it.
