40–60% of your website traffic is already international.

Most brands convert less than half of it. Not because of shipping. Because of pricing.

Showing a buyer in Australia $100 USD plus "duties may apply" is not a checkout experience. It's a cart abandonment waiting to happen.

The brands winning internationally show one price, fully landed, in local currency, guaranteed, from the moment something hits the cart.

That's Commerce Intelligence. And it's what separates brands that grow globally from brands that just ship globally.

Our CEO Rathna Sharad recently joined the Supply Chain Digital Podcast to dig into where cross-border commerce is headed, and why the window to get ahead is narrowing fast.

A huge thank you to Amazon Business for sponsoring the episode and to Procurement Magazine and Supply Chain Digital for having Rathna on.

Q1 2026 YoY cross-border GMV grew 26% across our network through a Middle East shipping crisis, four days of IEEPA legal uncertainty, and the start of EU customs reform. The brands that kept growing weren't the biggest. They were the ones who saw it coming.

Your international traffic is probably converting at a fraction of your domestic rate. We can tell you what that's costing you, by country, for free.

Market Intelligence pulls your actual international data and shows you where shoppers drop off, which countries to prioritize, and what each gap is worth in revenue. Available to any Shopify merchant with the FlavorCloud app installed.

Your CSM handles everything:

A €45 EU order with three SKUs just got 22% to 33% more expensive, and platforms are now legally on the hook for the data and the duty.

July 1, 2026: €150 de minimis gone. New duty per HS code. New EU handling fee. New country-by-country fees on top.

We sat down with FlavorCloud CEO Rathna Sharad on what changed and why regional fulfillment is moving ahead of every prior forecast:

Most Shopify merchants know they're losing international revenue. They just can't pin down where it's going, why, or how much.

That's exactly what our new Market Intelligence report tells you. We use your existing store data to find the gaps in your cross-border funnel, then attach a dollar value to each one. No setup on your end, no extra tools, no cost.

If your international conversion rate is a fraction of your domestic and you've never figured out why, take a look.
