Shopify Ecom FAQ

Not by default — the choice is yours, unless you use Shopify Payments or an admin sets a secure sign-in method as required for you.

Not automatically — you send it from a draft or a payment-pending order; Shopify's free invoice generator is standalone and never sees your orders.

Yes — but through App Store apps, not a sales connector Shopify publishes; Intuit's own connector for QuickBooks Online is free to install.

No — filing and remitting are yours by default. In the US the exceptions are paid Shopify Tax automated filing and Shop channel orders.

Only by asking — some stores show a Cancel items button for unshipped items in a window they set, but the store approves or declines it.

Yes — Shop is Shopify's own app, but stores in it are listed automatically once they meet Shopify's requirements, not reviewed one by one.

Yes — since June 2026 an eligible business can add Shop Pay to a non-Shopify checkout, but you only see it where the store added it.

Yes — COD is one of the manual payment methods Shopify documents, switched on in Settings > Payments; surcharges and OTP checks need an app.

No — codes from Shopify's free QR generator carry no expiry date and stay active until you delete the Quick Link behind them.

No — Shopify documents no product called a CRM and no deal pipeline; customer profiles, segments and automations are documented in the admin.

No — Shopify verifies no age natively; the 18-or-majority rule binds the account owner, and customer gating is an app or a Function.

Yes — Terms §14.3 allows suspension or termination for any reason, without notice unless law requires it; restricted access is not termination.
