Why Shopify

Shopify is a Canadian company, founded originally in 2004 by a snowboarding company who couldn't find a reliable platform for their sales - so they created their own. It currently reports over 377,500 merchants are using their software, and sales are in excess of $10,000,000,000 in gross merchandise value. They have been described as “Clean, simple and easy to use” by popular technology website CNET.
