With over 40 million people, Canada has one of the largest eCommerce markets in the world, generating billions in online sales annually. The country primarily uses the Canadian Dollar (CAD) and supports English and French as official languages. Shopify merchants selling in Canada must provide local payment solutions that align with consumer preferences to maximize conversions and reduce cart abandonment.

Why Target Canada’s eCommerce Market?

Canadian shoppers prefer Interac, Visa Debit, Mastercard Debit, and digital wallets like Apple Pay and Google Pay for online transactions. Alternative payment methods such as PayBright (Affirm Canada), Klarna, and Sezzle are also gaining traction, allowing customers to pay in installments.
