Winter ’24 Shopify Editions: What’s New?

PRESS RELEASE
Published March 25, 2024

In the dynamic landscape of e-commerce, Shopify consistently adapts with its biannual releases. Let’s delve into the latest innovations that are reshaping the merchant experience.

Enhanced Product Varieties

Shopify has elevated the previous 99-variant limit per product through its new GraphQL product API. Merchants and developers can now craft up to 2000 variants per product, providing customers with a broader array of options. This advancement facilitates the creation of more sophisticated product catalogs, currently available for developer preview, with a wider release anticipated.

Unified Listings

Merchants now have the capability to amalgamate product variations into a singular, comprehensive listing using the Combined Listing App. Each variant retains its unique attributes, encompassing image carousel, URL, and publishing controls. This streamlined approach fosters a seamless customer shopping experience, enriching product visibility and customization.

New Subscription Tool

Unlock the potential of recurring revenue streams with the introduction of Shopify’s free native Subscription app. Say goodbye to reliance on third-party apps; now, merchants can effortlessly set up and manage subscriptions directly from the Shopify admin. Customers can easily modify or skip subscription orders from their account on your store, eliminating the need for additional integrations.

Checkout Customization Flexibility

Familiar to Shopify Plus merchants, Checkout Extensibility transforms the checkout process. Departing from the outdated checkout.liquid, this advancement presents a forward-thinking approach, expanding Shopify’s capabilities beyond the core checkout page. Formerly confined to enhancing solely the core checkout page, merchants and developers can now implement customizations across additional site sections, offering heightened flexibility in tailoring the checkout experience.

Tailored Pages

The extensive customization options previously available solely for the checkout page now extend to the “Thank You” and Order Status pages. Merchants have the ability to personalize various elements, such as appearance, color schemes, headers, footers, and container styles. Propelled by apps, these enhancements guarantee future compatibility and scalability for developers.

Enhanced Customer Account Customization

Comparable customization functionalities are now within reach for the Customer Account page, empowering the creation of enriched customer experiences.

AI-Powered Advancements with Shopify Magic

Building on the success of Shopify Magic’s AI-powered product descriptions introduced in 2023, Winter ’24 brings expanded AI capabilities. Merchants can now leverage AI for image manipulation, enhanced autowrite, and upgraded search functionalities, enhancing the overall shopping experience.

Effortless Image Editing with AI

Shopify’s expanded Magic image manipulation capabilities streamline basic image editing tasks. With just a few clicks or keywords, you can generate, match, or remove backgrounds, enhancing product visuals and potentially boosting sales.

AI-powered Semantic Search

Semantic Search offers a more comprehensive and relevant search experience by understanding shopper intent, improving product discovery.

Accelerated Store Page Creation

Shopify Magic’s AI-based product description tool now extends to other sections of the Shopify Admin, making page creation effortless.

All-in-One POS Terminal

Shopify introduces an all-in-one countertop POS Terminal with Wi-Fi and Ethernet connectivity. It features customizable branding and enhanced customer interaction.

Enhanced B2B Functionality

Winter ’24 brings exciting upgrades to B2B capabilities, including sales rep support, headless B2B integration, and tailored discounts, elevating the B2B experience for Shopify Plus stores.
