Alcove Launches Seamless Shopify Platform Integration

Alcove’s mission is to bridge the carbon market’s most difficult data gaps. Alcove brings powerful carbon specificity and guardrails out of the box to build trust, transparency, and speed for stakeholders across the value chain.

Showcasing the high integrity data behind your carbon credits has never been easier. That is why we are excited to announce the launch of the Alcove app for Shopify.

Alcove Launches Seamless Shopify Platform Integration 

Shopify’s team is at the forefront of sustainability and commerce – offering essential features across payments, marketing, and customer engagement tools, and catalyzing the best climate teams in the carbon removal industry.

For several months, we have been in close collaboration with the Shopify sustainability team and project developers to build and launch Alcove’s application for Shopify, purpose-built for the management and sale of carbon credits. Through the new Alcove app, carbon credit project developers now have the ability to seamlessly manage, promote, and transact the sales of their credits through the broadest and most powerful channels.  

Alcove built this integration to empower project developers using Alcove’s backend carbon-specific infrastructure to leverage Shopify’s leading commerce platform. The Shopify integration will enable Alcove users to:   

  • Turn carbon removal purchases into a straightforward ecommerce experience
  • Build fully customized storefront experiences and new sales channels to increase carbon credit sales and diversify revenue streams with new buyers, enterprises and SMBs alike
  • Own your relationship with buyers without forfeiting money and data to a marketplace
  • Power Shopify’s commerce workflows and automation with a taxonomy optimized for carbon 
  • Streamline transactions, including forward purchases for forecasted inventory, through automated payments processing

Unmatched Management + Commercialization Capabilities

Project developers using the Alcove inventory management platform are able to seamlessly integrate the full capabilities of Shopify to:

  • Forecast and allocate carbon credits accurately
  • Fulfill and automate upcoming delivery obligations 
  • Incorporate carbon credit production data, including sensors, meters, and lifecycle analysis to credit operations
  • Automate the alignment of inventory across stages of the sales funnel
  • Model complex purchases and multi-phase transactions to simplify timelines and track meaningful metrics

This is the first fully integrated, carbon-specific application for the Shopify platform, enabling carbon credit project developers to seamlessly manage and sell credits generated by any type of carbon removal or avoidance project. We could not be more excited to launch this and help project developers sell carbon credits to diverse buyer segments that best align with their business.   

Access to the app

The integration is directly configurable in Alcove’s app for paid subscribers to Alcove. You can contact us to get access to the platform. Additional details about Alcove’s Shopify app can be found at https://apps.shopify.com/alcove.
