Shopify updates are here just in time to make the most of your platform this summer! Here are a few highlights of the 2022 Summer Updates, full list of updates can be found here.
Find New Customers
Shop Cash Rewards
https://shop.app/
The Shop Pay app just got better! If you aren't already using the Shopify Shop Pay app you should definitely check it out; it's like a market place for Shopify stores that you can browse, like Etsy. Once a customer is on the shop app, they will be given the option of quick checkout every time they use a Shopify store website/checkout. This means that as a customer as soon as you enter your email in the checkout you are texted a confirmation code, once entered all your saved information is automatically entered (shipping, credit card etc) for a faster shopping experience.
With Shop Cash Rewards you can find new customers that are already using the app. Shopify will be giving away a bunch of Shop cash rewards to buyers and as a store you can create offers using Shop Cash Boosts. Feature may not be available in every region.

Pre - Orders
New apps make it easier than ever to create preorder and 'try before you buy' orders.
New Design: Apps and Sales Channels
You may notice the dashboard and admin area looks a bit different when you login to Shopify. The main difference in terms of function is the Apps Launcher and Pinning.
Apps Launcher
Instead of having the Apps and Sales Channels listed in your dashboard menu, they are now shown in a drop down menu from the top of the page. Select the app that you want to use from this list and it will launch the app.
Pinning Apps
While the app is open you can pin the app to the dashboard menu for quick access to the apps that you use the most.
