Shopify is a Canadian e-commerce company headquartered in Ottawa, Ontario. It is also the name of its proprietary e-commerce platform for online stores and retail point-of-sale systems. Shopify offers online retailers a suite of services “including payments, marketing, shipping and customer engagement tools to simplify the process of running an online store for small merchants.

Shopify was founded in 2004 by Tobias Lütke, Daniel Weinand, and Scott Lake after attempting to open Snowdevil, an online store for snowboarding equipment. Lütke used the open source eCommerce software osCommerce to launch Snowdevil, but was frustrated by its lack of flexibility. As a result, he decided to develop his own solution.

In 2006, Shopify launched its platform as a hosted solution. In 2009 it raised $7 million in Series A funding from Bessemer Venture Partners and FirstMark Capital. In 2011 it raised $15 million in Series B funding from Felicis Ventures and Georgian Partners.

In 2012 Shopify acquired Select Start Studios Inc., rebranding it as Shopify Studios. In 2013 Shopify acquired Jet Cooper, a Toronto-based design studio specializing in branding, design and user experience consulting for clients such as Google, Adidas, Samsung and Red Bull.

Shopify has been profitable since 2015. In 2016 it generated $670 million in revenue and processed over $40 billion worth of transactions. In 2017 it processed over $60 billion in transactions and is predicted to generate $1 billion in revenue.

PRO TIP: Shopify is a platform for businesses of all sizes to create an online store. It is not a publicly traded company and does not have a net worth. Be wary of any websites that claim to know the net worth of Shopify, as they are likely inaccurate.
