NIS America

NIS America, a Fyresite client, is a subsidiary of Nippon Ichi Software, Inc, and has been selling the best of gaming since December of 2003. On their Shopify store, customers can buy games for multiple platforms, merch, anime, and place preorders.

NIS America takes advantage of one of Shopify’s best features – Shop Pay. Whether a customer is buying a preorder or an in-stock game, they have the option to use Shop Pay’s pay in installments feature. They can apply without any impact to their credit score, and pay it off with no hidden fees. This gives customers a secure way to buy the games they love with a better budget; especially helpful for games and preorders that have limited quantity or are only available for a short time.

Mastermind Toys

“Play Comes First,” is what this Shopify toy store believes. Mastermind Toys is one of Canada’s premiere toy retailers. They are a one stop shop for anything kid related, selling books, toys, and apparel for kids ages 0-13. Their toys are available through their Shopify store and in multiple brick and mortar locations.

Using their Shopify store, customers can easily take advantage of their offerings. Whether they’re looking for local events or want to shop their sales, their menu navigation makes it a breeze to find whatever they are looking for. Customers can also set up wishlists and location preferences from the main navigation.

Melissa and Doug

Timeless Toys. Endless Possibilities. That’s the motto of this well-known children’s toy store. Founded by Melissa and Doug, parents of six children, they wanted to create toys that were sustainable, imaginative, and kid powered, not screen powered. These beliefs have made them household names since they were founded in 1988.

They take advantage of many Shopify features. On top of their robust eCommerce features, they also have a rewards program that offers 1 point for every dollar spent. They also have additional ways for members to earn points. Need help finding the perfect gift? They have a quiz that will not only give you gift options, but give you 200 play perk points to do so!

Pooltables

Stripes or solids? That’s the only difficult question to ask when you buy a pool table from Pooltables.com. The largest independent retailer of pool tables in the US, their Shopify store is on the next level.

While the focus of this store is selling pool tables and related accessories, there are also a number of resources to make sure customers are matched with the best product. For example, if you want to know the best size table and cues you should get based on room size, follow this handy guide.

American Girl

American Girl dolls have been an iconic addition to toy chests everywhere since their inception in 1986. With a range of dolls that bring historical stories to life, American Girl needed an eCommerce store that not only allowed them to sell their products, but tell their stories. That’s what they got with their Shopify store.

American Girl doesn’t only sell their line of dolls, clothing, and accessories. They also have an option for customers to design and build their own custom doll. This is a great example of a custom product builder, one of Fyresite’s favorite ways to boost Shopify sales.

Whether you’re a new gamer just dipping your toes into the pool, or you’re an experienced gamer looking for an upgrade, Apex Gaming PCs has something for you.

They also think green. Apex Gaming PCs is aiming to achieve full carbon neutrality by 2027, and become one of the first carbon-neutral gaming PC manufacturers in the process. To reach this goal, they use biodegradable packaging and repurpose the foam that comes with PC cases.
