    About Shopify

    Shopify is a commerce platform for starting and running an online business. You build a store with an AI builder or a theme, take payments through Shopify Checkout, and manage orders, inventory and customers from one admin.

    Shopify Point of Sale connects in-person sales with the online store. You can also sell through social media and marketplaces, and sell to other countries with Shopify Markets.

    The Shopify App Store adds extra features, such as booking apps, and Shopify offers a free trial.

    Pricing: Shopify is a monthly subscription with Basic, Grow, Advanced and Plus plans, and yearly billing lowers the monthly price. Card payment rates and a fee on third-party gateways apply on top, and they fall on higher plans. There is a short free trial, then a low introductory price for the first few months. See their Australian pricing page for current plans.

    Why it suits tourism businesses

    Tourism businesses use Shopify to sell merchandise, gift vouchers, local produce and packaged products online. A winery, attraction or tour business with a shop can take payments at the counter and online, with stock in one place.

    Shopify itself is built to sell products and does not manage tour availability. The App Store lists third-party booking apps, including apps aimed at tours and events, so check that one covers your booking needs before you commit.
