Over 150 updates. One bold vision. Welcome to the future of ecommerce.
Twice a year, Shopify launches its Editions. Massive updates designed to help merchants grow, sell, and manage better. And this summer’s drop? It’s a game-changer.
The Summer ’25 Edition is packed with over 150 new features and improvements. From a revolutionary design foundation to better checkout tools, global selling upgrades, and advanced developer resources. Shopify is putting more power in your hands than ever before.
Whether you're a solo store owner or scaling across markets, here’s everything you need to know and why we at Order Printer Pro are excited about what’s next.
What Are Shopify Editions?
Let’s start at the top. Shopify Editions are biannual product updates that roll out platform-wide improvements across design, checkout, POS, marketing, shipping, and more. It’s Shopify’s way of saying, “Here’s what’s new, and here’s how we’re helping you do more.”
Each Edition is themed. Winter ’25 focused on core functionality. Summer ’25? It’s all about creativity, speed, and customization.
Horizon: The Future of Theme Design
One of the most exciting things about this Edition is Horizon, a brand-new theme framework that puts design power back in your hands.
Horizon makes it easier to build and customize your storefront without needing a developer.
You can now:
- Use AI to generate custom theme blocks
- Edit your store layout in real-time
- Choose from 10 new, professionally designed themes that look amazing and are built to convert
The best part? It’s made for everyone. Whether you’re launching your first store or giving your brand a fresh look, Horizon makes design feel less like a chore and more like play.
Smarter Checkout, Global Reach
Summer ’25 also brings serious upgrades to the checkout experience:
- Buy Now, Pay Later expands to Canada
- Split shipping rates for more flexible fulfillment
- Checkout in Roblox (yes, seriously)
- Carbon-neutral delivery options
- Better fraud protection, faster load times
For global merchants, there’s even more good news:
- Shopify Payments now supports 16 more countries
- Accept regional favorites like Klarna, MobilePay, and Apple Pay
- Built-in duties and currency handling make cross-border selling simpler than ever
Shopify POS Gets a Makeover
If you sell in person, Shopify POS v10 is here to make your life easier:
- Lightning-fast navigation
- Smarter search with typo tolerance
- Mixed fulfillment and global retail tools
- Better SMS opt-ins, payment flows, and discount settings
New Tools for Better Operations
Behind the scenes, Shopify’s new admin tools are designed to speed you up:
- Refunds to store credit
- Edit subscription orders
- Advanced analytics on mobile
- Pick list printing directly in Shopify
- Barcode scanning to transfer stock
- Flat-rate shipping for multi-location orders
This makes order prep, fulfillment, and reporting smoother, whether you’re managing one store or a dozen.
B2B Selling Gets an Upgrade
Selling wholesale on Shopify? It’s about to get better:
- Multiple B2B markets with unique catalogs and themes
- “View as” feature to preview buyer experiences
- ERP integrations and Shopify Collective improvements
- Stronger tax controls and app support
It’s easier than ever to scale your wholesale operations and tailor every interaction.
