As someone who has dedicated the last few years of his life building a dev / design shop around Shopify, seeing these kind of numbers makes me very happy.
Looks like we placed our bet on the right horse.
imho xal / Tobi should get far more recognition for what he built. Shopify is really quite remarkable and in a league of its own.
Curious if they'll ever beat Amazon / Alibaba volume.
- mh8h 10y agoAmazon sold 426 items per second Christmas 2013. Their average order value in 2012 was around $47. Assuming the average value to be the same, it works out to around $1.2m per minute.
- cstejerean 10y agoIf the average order value is $47, for the average item value to also be $47 it would imply the average order size is one item. That seems highly unlikely.
