Global hardware storefront

Overview

Every Shopify retail merchant who taps a card reader, prints a receipt, or rings up a sale on a POS terminal is using Shopify hardware. Someone has to sell that hardware to the world, and Shopify chose SDG to build the store that does it.

The Shopify Hardware Store is the global storefront for Shopify's point-of-sale hardware, and it lives as part of Shopify.com.

The challenge

Of every agency Shopify could have chosen, including its own internal teams, it hired SDG to build a storefront that carries Shopify's name and meets Shopify's standards.

  • A storefront that is part of Shopify.com itself, held to Shopify's own bar for quality.
  • Global from day one: multi-language and multi-currency.
  • Selling physical hardware worldwide, with the catalog, availability, and checkout that requires.

The solution

SDG built the global Shopify Hardware storefront, engineered to Shopify's standards and integrated into Shopify.com.

  • A global storefront for Shopify's POS hardware line.
  • Multi-language and multi-currency selling for a worldwide audience.
  • Built to live natively within Shopify.com.

The outcome

The result speaks for itself: the company that builds the platform trusted SDG to build and run the store that sells its own hardware to the world.

There is no stronger endorsement of an engineering partner than being hired by Shopify.
