Boosting Checkout Efficiency: Proven Strategies for Enhancing Shipping App Performance 🚀 Hey fellow #shopify folks! Checkout performance plays a pivotal role in driving sales for merchants, and we understand its significance. That's why we're committed to optimizing the checkout experience of your shipping app. Here are six best practices to improve your app's performance and ensure blazing-fast return shipping options (< 500ms) every time: 1️⃣ Store carrier retail rates internally Don't let your app's responsiveness be at the mercy of carrier backend performance. Store carrier retail rates internally to avoid delays and deliver a seamless checkout experience. 2️⃣ Cache carrier rates Create a caching layer to store dynamic or merchant-specific carrier rates. By leveraging caching, you'll reduce external calls and boost response times. We recommend following these steps: - Analyze the response data to external calls in your system and identify patterns across various use cases. - Store responses to similar requests within the memory database (such as Redis) to guarantee fast retrieval when new requests come in. - When requests hit the cache consider making an external request in the background to validate accuracy and update the cache with new information if required - Analyze your cache hit and miss ratio and frequency of response changes for the same requests. 3️⃣ Parallelize calls to external systems When external calls are unavoidable, maximize efficiency by making parallel calls to carriers. With optimized parallelization and timeout strategies, ensure fast response times without blocking checkouts. 4️⃣ Set timeouts for external systems Avoid checkout blockages caused by slow response times. Set internal timeouts to cancel requests to external systems that fail to respond promptly. Keep the flow smooth with a subset of rates returned. 5️⃣ Optimize hosting for lightning-fast service Don't let server latency impact your shipping app's response time. Assess hosting options and consider migrating closer to Shopify servers or utilizing optimized infrastructure. 6️⃣ Implement backup rates for fail-safe checkouts Ensure a seamless experience even when external partners experience timeouts. Create a backup system for your app, providing quick access to alternative rates. Our recommendations guarantee reliable checkouts. By implementing these best practices, you'll enhance the performance of your shipping app, delighting merchants, and boosting their conversion rates.

Exciting news as Shopify recently acquired Checkout Blocks, making it easier than ever for Plus merchants to customize and extend their checkouts capabilities. Think AI recommendations, custom content (banners, images, headlines), custom fields (gift messages, delivery notes), complex discount logic, email validation, personalized order status / thank you pages, etc. More info here: https://lnkd.in/eK75gnxg It is important to partner with a platform that is constantly working towards simplifying commerce. Focus less on maintenance and custom development, more on growing your business.

By now, most Shopify Plus merchants know that they need to upgrade their checkout before August. Many merchants see it as a boring compliance exercise, but if you invest energy into understanding the new checkout, there are some ways to help boost your stores AOV. Shopify had a partner webinar yesterday and covered the benefits to Checkout Extensibility: 1️⃣ You can now customize Shopify checkout with apps, so no coding experience required 2️⃣ Faster checkout experience will deliver a higher conversion rate 3️⃣ More customizations are allowed via custom functions (apps) or through the checkout APIs 4️⃣ Thank you and Order Status pages are now covered by Checkout Extensibility giving you control over more of the funnel A lot to like here, I think #4 might be the most slept-on for merchants. Crafting your thank you, order status and purchase confirmation pages can really help to increase purchases (upsells) and drive a higher AOV for your store.

#Shopifyinnovation2024 🚨 Shopify Merchants, Checkout.liquid Deprecation Alert! Starting from August 13, #Shopify will deprecate checkout.liquid in favor of the new #Checkout Extensibility—a more secure, higher-performance, and upgrade-safe solution for customizing checkouts using apps. Keep yourself posted with the following timeline & enhancement! Key Deadlines: - August 13, 2024: Upgrade Information, Shipping, and #Payment pages - August 28, 2025: Upgrade Thank You and Order Status pages, and update any apps using script tags and additional scripts - January 6, 2025: Revert to un-customized Shopify Checkout for non-update checkout Why to migrate to Checkout Extensibility? - Checkout Extensibility separates checkout code from personalization, enabling independent updates without code conflicts. - Making simple changes with the built-in editor and adding extensions to enhance functionality are simplified without coding. - The integration with Shop Pay also becomes seamless and supports a streamlined one-page checkout. What happens on missing deadlines? - #Customizations will be locked and uneditable, leaving shops that continue using the old code at risk. - Deactivation of payment gateways or switch providers will be disabled. - Accurate risk assessment becomes unreliable with unsandboxed code executing at checkout, so fraud indicators and recommendations in the admin will no longer be available for new orders. - Orders flagged as higher risk may lead to Shopify #payments payouts being delayed by up to 5 days post-transaction. Transition to Checkout Extensibility today to continue the seamless checkout process for your customer experience!! #wgentech #ecommerce #updates #shopifyexperts

🎉 Spotlight on Paazl! 🎉 We're thrilled to highlight the integration between Shopify and Paazl! With the Paazl Shopify app, you can easily create a multi-carrier checkout experience. The app is connected to the Paazl platform and will retrieve real-time possible shipping options, based on the customer's location and configured business rules (for example, package dimensions, total cart value, etc). The app has a built-in feature to transparently display all the different shipping options in your checkout. The options are sorted on different tabs for home delivery, pickup/locker, and stores. Key features of Paazl include transparently displaying delivery options for multiple carriers in the checkout, the ability to display pickup points in the checkout with real-time verification at the carrier, and calculating the best-suited delivery options based on specific business rules. With this integration, Shopify users can now seamlessly connect their store data with Paazl, leveraging its comprehensive multi-carrier checkout capabilities for enhanced shipping management. This partnership brings the power of efficient shipping management directly to Shopify users, aiding in driving business growth and customer satisfaction.

You can read about it here: https://lnkd.in/gr9RXqfH We know that a lot of you still have questions, especially around the transition away from checkout scripts.
