Total revenues increased 22% year over year to $1.4 billion, which beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 2.54%.
Quarter in Detail
Subscription Solutions revenues climbed 12% year over year to $376.3 million, driven by growth in monthly recurring revenues and the addition of new merchants.
Merchant Solutions revenues surged 26% year over year to $989.9 million, driven by strong Gross Merchandise Volume (GMV), which improved 11% year over year to $46.2 billion.
As of Sep 30, 2022, Monthly Recurring Revenues (MRR) were $107 million, up 8% from the year-ago quarter. The growth benefited from more merchants joining the platform and an increase in the number of retail locations using POS Pro.
Shopify Plus revenues were $35.1 million, representing 33% of MRR compared with 28% reported in the year-ago quarter.
Gross Payments Volume (GPV) grew to 25 billion, constituting 54% of GMV processed in the third quarter compared with $20.5 billion (49% of GMV) in the year-ago quarter.

Shopify Capital advanced $507.6 million in cash and loans to merchants in the United States, Canada, the U.K. and Australia in the reported quarter, up 29% year over year.
