FAQ
- What must be transferred with a Shopify store?Confirm the store ownership transfer, domain, theme licence, brand assets, product content, apps, supplier accounts and analytics access. Third-party payment accounts may require separate changes rather than moving automatically with the store.
- How should you verify a Shopify store's profit?Reconcile Shopify orders to payment settlements, refunds, chargebacks, shipping, advertising, app fees and product costs. Analyse contribution margin by product and channel instead of relying on the dashboard's gross sales figure.
- Which Shopify app dependencies deserve attention?Export the installed-app list with monthly charges, permissions and business purpose. Identify custom integrations, developer ownership and alternatives for any app controlling subscriptions, fulfilment, pricing, reviews or customer service.
- What should you check in Shopify Payments before closing?Review payout history, disputes, chargebacks, rolling reserves and account holds. Confirm with Shopify how legal-business and banking details will change, because transferring store ownership does not settle every payment obligation.
- How do you assess a Shopify store's customer base?Compare first-time and returning customers, cohort repeat rates, refunds and order profitability. Verify that privacy records and CASL consents support the intended post-sale marketing, not merely that email addresses exist.
- How should you evaluate cross-border sales in a Canadian Shopify business?Break sales, shipping costs, returns, duties and taxes down by destination. Confirm Canadian GST/HST settings and marketplace responsibilities, then identify countries where delivery times or compliance costs undermine reported margins.
