73 practical use cases for your business

¥
USE CASE 1

Streamline payout reconciliation for accounting

Challenge
Matching bank deposits to Shopify payouts means opening each payout's details one by one to check its breakdown.
Approach
On the new payouts page, work down the list on the left and expand each breakdown on the right to review it.
Impact
You can move between payouts without leaving the page, so you keep your place even when reviewing many at once.
Tech note
The specific breakdown fields aren't documented. Check them on the live screen before writing reconciliation procedures.
USE CASE 2

Give store owners an at-a-glance view of cash flow

Challenge
Before paying for inventory or ads, owners want to know quickly when and how much money is coming in.
Approach
Review paid and pending payouts side by side in the date-based list. Use the same view on mobile.
Impact
Amounts received and amounts scheduled are clear at a glance, even on the go.
Tech note
Available on both web and mobile, but because of the gradual rollout, timing may vary by store.
USE CASE 3

Speed up first response to failed payouts

Challenge
When a payout fails, it takes time to trace which payout failed and why.
Approach
Set up a workflow: select the failed payout on the new payouts page, review its details in place, then take the needed action (such as checking bank account information).
Impact
Fewer steps to identify the cause of a failure, so you can start resolving payout delays sooner.
Tech note
Details shown for failed payouts aren't documented. Update support procedures after checking the actual failure display.
