All Shopify Plans Now Include 10X More Storage
We're always working hard at improving Shopify to make it the best ecommerce solution possible. We work on feature releases, server upgrades and other technical details so that you can focus on running your online store.
Shopify already includes unlimited bandwidth on all plans. Today we're happy to announce that we've also increased file storage amounts by a factor of 10X. Both new and existing customers on the Basic plan now get 1GB (vs 100MB), Professional 5GB (vs 500MB), and Business 10 GB (vs 1GB) of file storage. The storage limit increase means you can store more product pictures, documents, videos, and other files you use in your online store. Enjoy the free upgrade!

We Are The Internet - Join Us in Fighting SOPA / PIPA
Across the web, large and small sites are joining together to voice their objections to the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and the Protect IP Act (PIPA). Wikipedia and Reddit are going dark while many others are posting messages of opposition.
At Shopify we strongly believe that SOPA and PIPA will negatively impact innovation across the Internet. That is why we have posted a message linking to this post in the admin dashboard of all our Shopify stores. Over 15,000 store owners use Shopify to run their business and these bills will impact all of them, whether inside or outside the U.S.
