Frequently asked questions

Can I use Shopify in my country?

Shopify is available to businesses in 175+ countries. Payment options depend on where your business is registered: Shopify Payments where it's available, and other payment providers everywhere else.

How is Shopify different from other platforms?

Shopify runs at global scale: millions of businesses in 175+ countries use it. Its checkout, resilience under traffic peaks, international selling and app ecosystem all benefit from that scale.

Will moving my store to Shopify affect my SEO rankings?

Not with a well-planned migration. We move your product, customer and order data, connect old URLs to new pages with 301 redirects and monitor indexing after launch.

Is Shopify suitable for small businesses?

Yes. Entrepreneurs making their first sale and some of the world's biggest brands use the same platform, so you don't need to switch as you grow.

Which Shopify plan is right for me?

It depends on your product count, sales volume, the countries you sell to and the integrations you need. We work out the right plan for your store together in the free audit.

Who should set up my Shopify store?

A partner who knows Shopify and your markets well. Shopiuzman is a Shopify Select Partner that has worked only with Shopify since day one.
