IN🤖 OpenAI now takes 4% of every sale from Shopify merchants. Here’s how ChatGPT is turning into a major sales channel — and taking its cut.
Starting Jan 26, 2026, Shopify merchants will pay a 4% fee on sales completed via ChatGPT Instant Checkout — on top of Shopify processing fees.
AI is moving beyond recommendations — now it controls transactions, positioning ChatGPT as a fully monetized distribution channel.
Merchants must ask: do incremental sales justify the fee, or is this a risk to margins?
Would you opt into AI-driven checkout?
