Canada-based e-commerce giant, Shopify, has joined the Facebook-led Libra Association in a bid to “improve commerce.” Shopify has reportedly helped over one million business open stores online.
Via a blog post, the company revealed it became a new member of the Association and that it will work to “build a payment network that makes money easier to access and supports merchants and consumers everywhere.” The blog post in part reads:
“We’re excited to be part of the Libra Association and look forward to how the project may improve commerce everywhere.”
Shopify also stated that its mission is to “make commerce better for everyone” and that to achieve it, it spends time looking into how it can improve where money and banking “could be far better.”
