I'm a new user and have heard Shopify Collective mentioned a few times, but can't seem to find it in my account. Is it limited?

[emily-manley]

Hi @RevengeOfMyers! Thank you for your question.

To be eligible for Shopify Collective, your store must be based in the US, use USD, have Shopify Payments activated, and have made at least $50,000 in the past 12 months.

You can learn more in this article from the Shopify Help Center. 

[RevengeOfMyers]

Ah! Ok. Will I receive a notification when that happens?

[mariaacle]

Hey @RevengeOfMyers ! 

Feel free to review installation instructions in this Shopify Help Center article. If your business is eligible to get access you will receive an email and/or home card in your Shopify admin.

How is Shopify Shipping different from Flexport?

[Rob-B]

Hey there, Shopify Shipping is our built in shipping and fulfillment tool designed for merchants who ship orders themselves. As your orders come in, you can simply select those orders, then buy & print shipping labels directly in Shopify using our pre-negotiated rates with UPSP, UPS, DHL Express, Canada Post, and more.

Flexport on the other hand is a 3P solution that lets you track the movement of your goods across the entire supply chain, where you can book and track freight shipments, collaborate with your suppliers, and more.

For more info Shopify Shipping, you can check out this page on our website and in the Shopify Help Center

I think this post is missing some links. Here is the link to learn more about Shopify Shipping in the Help Center.

To add more to this, Shopify Shipping is really meant for merchants who want to manage, fulfill and ship orders themselves. Its a great option if you want to streamline shipping operations by just using Shopify's built-in capabilities to manage, fulfill and ship your orders. We have great rates with top carriers across Canada, US, UK, France, Spain, Italy, and Australia. 

Flexport is a more comprehensive supply chain management solution for merchants with more complex fulfillment requirements like product prep, freight services, inventory storage, etc.

Is Shopify Shipping going to be availabe for Germany before BFCM 2023?

[TitoA]

Shopify shipping is currently not available in Germany. Shopify Shipping is available to businesses that have eligible fulfillment locations. Eligible locations can be found in our help doc here

[mariaacle]

Hey @Kate1919 - to add to Tito's response, while we don't have any immediate plans to launch Shopify Shipping in your region this year, rest assured that it's top of mind. Our teams are fully aware of the importance of supporting Germany as a key region in the future.
