Checkout and Ecommerce
We want to share our latest thinking regarding Checkout’s approach to ecommerce, including Enstore and our plans for integration with Shopify.
Enstore - A Free Hosted Webstore for Basic Needs
We view Enstore, in many ways, as a feature of Checkout. As such, we do not have plans to charge for Enstore. It has been and will continue to be free with no strings attached.
While many of you are happily using Enstore to sell your wares online, we also know some of you have been patiently waiting for additional functionality that is key to your business. We will be releasing an update in the coming weeks that addresses performance, enhanced syncing (with Checkout) and some additional minor fixes. But, to be clear, we view Enstore as a turnkey webstore for etailers with straightforward, simple needs. While we will continue to support and tweak Enstore, as needed, we don’t anticipate adding significant functionality.
Shopify – An Integrated Solution For Those Who Need More Robust Functionality
We recognize that while Enstore may be more than adequate for many businesses, it may not be the perfect fit for yours. As a result, we have been developing integration with Shopify, a best in class, full-featured webstore. You can read more about Shopify here. We expect to release this integration in early Fall.
We will be in touch again soon with an Enstore update, and news on our Shopify integration. Stay tuned. If you have questions, please email or call us at 800-322-6962.
