Q2 is in, and it was a monster quarter.
→ $116B in merchant sales, up 32% YoY
→ $3.6B revenue, up 34% YoY
→ $654M free cash flow, 18% margin
Five quarters running, GMV has grown more than 30%.
The bigger story is underneath the numbers: every shift AI is creating happens to play to @Shopify's strengths.

Well, that was a banger. Thank you to all the partners who traveled to Toronto for @Shopify DotDev (from 68 countries!). Best ecosystem in tech. Hands down.

This. Just. Happened.
Twitch's biggest streamer, @KaiCenat, opened a subscriber-only drop from @TONEexclusive, the brand he cofounded, in real time to 430,000+ fans.
All they had to do was scan the QR code or hit the link. It's that easy.

“If I had my Shopify notifications on, it would just be chiming all day right now.”
@Seanfrank 🤜🤛
The best time to start a consumer brand, per @Seanfrank:
1. January 2012 at the dawn of Facebook ads
2. Now
Why now?
“It’s moated from AI. I would hate to be trying to sell software right now.”
“People are going to buy stuff forever. You have birthdays. You have Christmas.”
Ridge just had its best Q2 ever, even with inflation and the Iran war.
Frank says this contrasts with the Ukraine war in 2022, when there was a noticeable dip in e-commerce.
“If I had my Shopify notifications on, it would just be chiming all day right now.”
“It’s definitely a vibecession.”

This is not just a @Shopify story. This is what entrepreneurship looks like at scale in the AI era: $ 101B in merchant sales in one quarter. 13x growth in AI-powered orders.
The tools are here. The channels are here. There has never been a better time to start a business.
Shopify just reported on Q1. The numbers speak for themselves.
→ $101B in merchant sales, second consecutive quarter over $100B, up 35% YoY
→ $3.2B revenue, up 34% YoY
→ $476M free cash flow, 15% margin
That’s what a clear strategy, well executed, looks like.
For Q2 and beyond, here’s what really matters. AI will accelerate entrepreneurship more than any other job.
