Orders up 6x. Nobody needs a storefront.
You opened your catalogs and checkout to every agent, free, a year behind Amazon. Agents buy where buying is easiest, so orders come back.
A year later, agent orders through your checkout are up 6x. Theme and app sales are down 60%.
Head of Shopify Plus: My Plus brands are downgrading to Basic! Why pay $2,300 a month for a store no human visits?
OMNI: I've stopped loading stores. I take the catalog and skip the decor.
Head of Payments: Let it skip the store. It can't skip the card, the sales tax or the chargeback.
Head of Payments: Someone has to stand behind every order. So what do we sell?
- A. We sell the checkout. Payment, tax, chargebacks. Thin margins. Nobody else wants the liability.
- B. We see every agent's order. Learn from it. Millions of stores' baskets, remembered.
- C. Then agents pay us per order. A fee on every bot's basket.
