Shopify has added the ability to create and sell NFTs for sellers

E-commerce giant Shopify has partnered with GigLabs NFT, adding the ability for merchants to create non-fungible tokens and sell them directly to users.

About it reported Shopify CEO Tobias Lütke on Twitter. To deliver the new service, Shopify partnered with GigLabs NFT, a firm specializing in NFT development and trading tools based on the Flow blockchain. Shopify also states that collectible tokens can be generated from Ethereum, Polygon, and Near.

The NFT Beta program is only available to US Shopify Plus merchants. Customers wishing to integrate the GigLabs NFT app into their Shopify Plus accounts should contact GigLabs directly for more information. Users can purchase collectible merchant tokens using Shopify Payments and Shop Pay, using credit, debit cards, and cryptocurrencies for payment.

“Our efforts to grow the NFT ecosystem are focused on enabling merchants using the Shopify platform to directly sell their tokens to customers through our platform,” said Robleh Jama, director of product development at Shopify.

Shopify is no stranger to the cryptocurrency space. Last year, the platform began partnering with the CoinPayments payment system to accept payments in cryptocurrencies and accelerate international payments.
