Over one million merchants on Shopify, the independent builder platform for cross-border e-commerce, once again set a new record over the Black Friday and Cyber Monday weekend. Merchants in more than 175 countries generated sales of more than $290 million, up from $180 million last year.
Shopify said that more than 25.5 million consumers shopped from Shopify merchants from the start of Black Friday to the end of Cyber Monday in the US, indicating that more shoppers are now bypassing third-party retailers to find brands directly. Black Friday continued to dominate, with peak sales of more than $1.5 million per minute at 3:01 p.m. ET.
