Shopify
Shopify is a proprietary, cloud-based commerce platform for building online and omnichannel stores used by businesses — including health and wellness sellers — to manage products, payments, orders, and storefronts.
Shopify provides hosted ecommerce, POS, payments, inventory, shipping, themes, app marketplace, and developer APIs to create and operate online stores and marketplaces. It is a general-purpose commerce platform marketed to SMBs and enterprises (Shopify Plus) and can be used to sell health products and services, though the platform is not inherently HIPAA-compliant for storing protected health information.
