Shopware enters payments partnership with BlueSnap
Shopware, an open-source eCommerce provider, has forged a partnership with global payment orchestration platform BlueSnap to steer its North American expansion. The alliance will see BlueSnap delivering transaction processing, payment methods, and integrations for merchants across US and Canada. Shopware customers will have access to BlueSnap features such as credit card processing, payment links, Vaulted Shopper storage, and support for Google Pay and Apple Pay. Shopware US general manager Jason Nyhus said: 'Fast, secure, and easy-to-use payment options are highly anticipated in the North American market. Online shoppers are hungry for such methods to be the status quo, and a partnership with BlueSnap is yet another ingredient in our recipe for merchant success." Shopware provides customisable B2B and B2C eCommerce solutions with a headless, API-first architecture based on open-source technology. BlueSnap CEO Henry Helgeson stated: 'A reliable and easy payment experience is part and parcel of customer loyalty. With an expansive network of financial institutions and portfolio of innovative billing, invoicing, and payments tools, we are well-positioned to help Shopware achieve its North American expansion goals.'

New Shopware Plugin ‘StPiPrefetch' Optimizes Online Shop Loading Speeds
Free plugin now available in the Shopware Store – Faster loading through intelligent preloading of content SCHöPPINGEN, GERMANY, March 26, 2025 / / -- Online retailers face the constant challenge of providing customers with a fast and seamless shopping experience. Slow loading times can lead to frustration and abandoned carts. With StPiPrefetch, a new free plugin for Shopware 6, store owners can now improve their page performance through intelligent preloading. StPiPrefetch leverages the experimental Speculation Rules API available in Chromium-based browsers like Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge. This enables shop pages – including search suggestions, search results, and custom links – to be preloaded in the background before the user even clicks on them. The result: faster navigation, shorter waiting times, and a noticeably better user experience. The plugin allows store owners to configure which content should be preloaded and under what conditions. This includes device targeting (e.g., desktop-only) and the level of preloading eagerness – ranging from conservative to immediate. With flexible options and intuitive settings in the Shopware admin area, even non-technical users can optimize their shop performance with ease. Key features of StPiPrefetch: Intelligent preloading of search suggestions as users type. Pre-rendering of search result pages to ensure faster access. Support for custom selectors to preload additional pages or elements. Device-specific settings (Desktop or All Devices). Adjustable eagerness modes: Conservative, Moderate, or Immediate. Easy integration through the Shopware admin – no coding required. StPiPrefetch is 100% free and available now in the official Shopware Store. Installation and setup can be completed in just a few minutes. The plugin is designed to enhance the performance of any Shopware 6 store, particularly in environments where speed and usability are key factors in customer retention. Browser Support: As of now, the Speculation Rules API is only supported in Chrome and Microsoft Edge. Other browsers, such as Firefox and Safari, do not support this technology. However, StPiPrefetch is built with flexibility in mind, allowing store owners to test and enable preloading where it's most effective. 'Page speed is one of the most important factors in e-commerce,' says Stefan Pilz, developer of the plugin. 'StPiPrefetch gives Shopware users an easy way to implement performance improvements without needing deep technical know-how.' Availability: The plugin can be downloaded now from the Shopware Store. A detailed setup manual is also available to help users get started quickly. Stefan Pilz Stefan Pilz Ltd. +49 1590 6787569 X LinkedIn YouTube Legal Disclaimer:
