Sometimes, it’s the boring things that make software truly great. That’s why we shipped search and sort for your connections list in Shopify Collective. So if you’re scaling to hundreds or thousands of selling partnerships it’s now faster and easier to navigate.

In a dream world, retailers want to offer all supplier rates AND maintain a unified language to describe them. By selecting rate-matching they can get both: live-fetched rates with a custom name. (4/6)

When suppliers use ‘Calculated at Checkout’ on price lists, Collective live-fetches rates based on the Supplier’s store shipping profiles, and shows them in the retailer checkout. No configuration needed! (3/6)

🧵Starting 2025 with a bang, we shipped a gargantuan checkout upgrade for retailers sourcing through Shopify Collective.

Now customers can choose from multiple shipping rates at checkout, with date estimates fetched live from Collective suppliers.

Why did we build this? (1/6)

📃 With Policies, Retailers can customize return and listing update processes for different supplier groups. This flexibility streamlines workflows while accommodating the diverse needs of various supplier partnerships.

🔄Auto updated listings simplify steps such as importing, publishing and updating product content, so retailers never miss out on fresh products and content.

📦Return Automation allows retailers to define how they want to handle returns with their suppliers - with key steps like label transfer automated. It even works with 3P apps like Loop Returns, Aftership Returns - with more coming soon.
