Sentiment · FY2026 Q2
Revenue surged 34% to $3.2 billion with GMV surpassing $101 billion for the second consecutive quarter, driven by AI-native operations, expanding Shopify Payments penetration, and accelerating enterprise momentum. Free cash flow delivered a 15% margin at $476 million while operating leverage improved through headcount discipline. International growth continued outpacing North America as the UCP protocol positioned Shopify for the emerging agentic commerce wave, and Q2 guidance targeted high 20s revenue growth.
