What it is

Shopify's built-in payment processing. Merchants who use it pay processing and currency conversion fees, which make up most of merchant solutions revenue.

Why it matters to the stock. Payments is the largest revenue line. Each point of penetration adds fee revenue on the same GMV, so this is the main lever behind merchant solutions growth.
