Boring or Exciting? Shopify Editions Winter '25 Updates
Shopify Winter ’25 is here—and it’s different this time. They’ve released over 150 updates (yes, really), but instead of flashy new features, they’re calling it the “boring” update.
Why?
Because it’s focused on fixing what matters most bugs, speed, and optimisation.
Think of it like upgrading from a clunky old app to one that works—faster, smoother, and more reliable. It’s not just smart—it’s a game-changer. And trust us, there are some updates you’ll definitely want to know about.
Here Are the Standouts:
Smarter Customer Accounts
Your customers now have more control with self-serve accounts:
- Manage orders, returns, and subscriptions all in one place.
- Branded login pages for a polished, on-brand experience.
- Loyalty and subscription integrations to boost retention.
Why you’ll love it: Fewer support tickets, more happy customers.
Faster, More Flexible Checkout
Shopify has turbocharged checkout with 50% faster load times and new customisation options:
- Express Payment Options: Faster PayPal, Apple Pay, and Shop Pay.
- Checkout Blocks: Customise thank-you pages to upsell or promote loyalty rewards.
Why it matters: Less friction, fewer abandoned carts, and more sales.
Product Bundles to Boost AOV
Sell more with pre-packaged product sets:
- Built-in analytics to track top-performing bundles.
- Seamless integration with Shopify POS for in-store and online sales.
Why it’s exciting: Bigger baskets, better sales data, and multi-channel selling made easy.
