Shopify's stated share of US ecommerce
Version 1. 6 rows, 14 columns. Next update February 11, 2027.
By Martin DejnickiUpdated Data through December 31, 2025
Short answer
The dataset quotes Shopify's stated share of US ecommerce for each sales year from 2019 to 2025, from its investor decks and results releases. The figures are about 10% (2021), 10% (2022), over 10% (2023), over 12% (2024) and over 14% (2025); the 2019 row is a rank, not a percentage. Shopify does not publish its US GMV, so no one can recompute the percentages.
Shopify claims over 14% of US ecommerce sales
Shopify's stated share of US ecommerce, percent, by year of the sales it is based on, 2021 to 2025
- Over means more than: Shopify prints ">10%", ">12%" and ">14%", so the steps between years are not measured changes.
- The market size comes from eMarketer for 2021, the US Census Bureau for 2022 and 2023, and Census data plus Shopify's internal estimates for 2024 and 2025.
- Shopify's 2019 claim is a rank (second-largest US ecommerce retailer) with no percentage, and it gives no figure for 2020.

About this dataset
The dataset quotes Shopify's stated share of US ecommerce for each sales year from 2019 to 2025, from its investor decks and results releases. The figures are about 10% (2021), 10% (2022), over 10% (2023), over 12% (2024) and over 14% (2025); the 2019 row is a rank, not a percentage. Shopify does not publish its US GMV, so no one can recompute the percentages. Each row also quotes the footnote that names where the size of the US market comes from (eMarketer, then the US Census Bureau, then Census data plus internal estimates) and what the numerator is (US GMV excluding point of sale). There is no statement for 2020.

Variables
The CSV header uses the column name.
| Column name | Label | Type | Unit | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| rowKey | Row key | string | Stable key of the row (the GMV year as text); matches provenance rowKey. | |
| year | GMV year | number | year | The year of Shopify's US sales on which the statement is based, as the footnote names it ("Shopify's 2024 US GMV"); for 2019 the sentence ends 'based on 2019 sales'. It is not the year in which the statement was made (see statedOn). |
| claimType | Type of claim | string | 'share' for a percentage of the US ecommerce market; 'rank' for the 2019 statement that Shopify's US merchants ranked second-largest, which contains no percentage. | |
| sharePct | Stated share of US ecommerce | number | % | The percentage exactly as printed in the statement of record, without its symbol (10 for '10%', '~10%', 'Over 10%' and '>10%'; 12 for '>12%'). Read it together with qualifier: 'over' means more than this figure, so it is a lower bound. Null for the 2019 rank claim. Whole numbers only; the one figure with a decimal (10.3% for 2021) is in the row note. |
| qualifier | Qualifier printed with the figure | string | 'approximately' when the figure is printed with '~'; 'over' when it is printed with '>' or 'Over'; 'none' when it is a plain percentage; null for the rank claim. | |
| claimAsStated | Claim, as printed | string | The claim as the statement of record prints it. Deck slides keep the figure, the label and the 'expect further penetration' clause in separate text boxes, so the pieces are joined with ' [...] '; results-release cells keep ' | ' between the figure and its label. | |
| marketSource | Market size source, as printed | string | What the footnote of the statement of record says the size of the US ecommerce market is taken from ('eMarketer, October 2021'; 'US Census Bureau'; 'a combination of US Census Bureau data (Quarterly Retail E-Commerce Sales, not adjusted) and internal estimates'). Null for the rank claim, which has no footnote. | |
| gmvBasisAsStated | Numerator, as printed | string | The sentence of the footnote that says what Shopify's side of the ratio is: Shopify's GMV in the United States for the year, excluding merchant sales made through POS. Shopify does not publish that US GMV figure. Null for the rank claim. | |
| methodFootnoteAsStated | Method footnote, as printed | string | The whole footnote of the statement of record (market size source and numerator), verbatim; ' [...] ' marks text printed between the pieces on the slide (a page number, a footnote marker). Null for the rank claim. | |
| statedIn | Statement of record is in | string | Document and place that contain the statement of record: the latest statement Shopify filed with the SEC for that GMV year; where there is none, the latest quarterly Investor Overview deck (a slide number is given for decks). | |
| statedOn | Statement of record dated | date | Date of the statement of record: the date printed on the deck's first slide, the dateline of the results release, or the signature date of the Form 6-K that filed the 2019 Year In Review. | |
| firstStatedIn | First statement found | string | The earliest statement for that GMV year among the documents found. Earlier documents may exist (see the caveats on decks not found). | |
| otherStatementsAsPrinted | Other statements for the GMV year, as printed | string | Every other statement found for the same GMV year, oldest first: the document and slide, then the claim as printed. Entries are separated by ' || '. The footnotes of these statements are in the provenance (field otherStatementsAsPrinted). Null where there is none. | |
| note | Row notes | string | Comparability notes: changes of wording or of the market size source between statements, the chart value for 2021, and what the 2019 rank claim does and does not say. |

Methodology
Caveats: Shopify's stated share of US ecommerce
- What the figure is. Shopify's footnote says: "Shopify market share represents sales by Shopify merchants based on Shopify’s 2025 US GMV (excluding merchant sales made through POS)." The market size comes from the source the footnote names (eMarketer, then the US Census Bureau, then Census data with internal estimates). "GMV does not represent revenue earned by us." None of the 74 SEC filings and exhibits read, and none of the decks, gives Shopify's US GMV, so the percentages cannot be recomputed. Shopify does not say whether its GMV is adjusted to the scope of the market figure.
- Rounding and direction. Percentages are whole numbers printed with a symbol: "~" (about), "Over" or ">" (more than), or none. "Over 10%", ">12%" and ">14%" are lower bounds, so the step from 10% (2022) to over 12% (2024) to over 14% (2025) is not a measured change. The one figure with a decimal, 10.3% for 2021, is a chart label in the slide image of the Q2 2022 deck and is given in the 2021 row note only.
- The market-size source changes, so the years are not like for like. For 2021, and for 2022 in the Q4 2022 deck, it is eMarketer. From the Q1 2023 deck it is the US Census Bureau. In the Q4 2024 and Q4 2025 results releases it is "a combination of US Census Bureau data (Quarterly Retail E-Commerce Sales, not adjusted) and internal estimates". The decks for Q1 to Q3 2025 say Census data "for 2024" without internal estimates. Shopify does not say how large the estimates are or why its releases and decks word the market differently.
- The column year is the year of the GMV on which the share is based, not the year of the statement. A year's share first appears in the next February's results material, except 2021 (Q2 2022 deck) and 2023 (Q1 2024 deck). The statement of record is the latest statement Shopify filed with the SEC for that year (the Q4 2024 and Q4 2025 results releases). For the other years it is the latest quarterly Investor Overview deck, which Shopify publishes on its investor site and does not file with the SEC. All 17 statements are recorded in the provenance.
- Gaps. There is no statement for 2020, and the 2019 row is a rank, not a percentage. Decks not found: Q4 2023, Q3 2024, Q1 2026, Q2 2026 and every deck before Q2 2022. They may exist, so a claim may be older than the first statement shown, and the 2025 figure may have been restated in a 2026 deck. The Q1 and Q2 2026 results releases and Forms 10-Q contain no US share statement.
- Other market-share statements are not US ecommerce share and are not in the table. The Investor Day 2023 presentation says "~6% of ecommerce in Western Europe" and "less than 1% market share of global retail sales". The 2022 results releases compare Shopify's growth with the US retail market and give no share. Third-party estimates of Shopify's share are not Shopify statements and are not used.

First release. Seventeen statements (14 investor decks, 2 SEC-filed results releases and 1 year-in-review rank claim) read for six years of sales. Other SEC documents and year-in-review letters were scanned for further statements. A 2021 chart value was read from a slide image and appears in a note only.
