Cinematic editorial artwork showing a group of red-hooded figures representing Shopify partner agencies, each wearing small embroidered labels reading “platinum partner,” “premier partner,” and “plus partner.” A single white-hooded figure stands apart, symbolizing independent merchants rejecting the system. The headline text reads “/Partnership’s a Lie. HIERARCHY.” — exposing how Shopify’s Premier, Plus, and Platinum programs favor agencies and platform profit over merchants. Minimal black-and-red lighting, photo-realistic fabric texture, professional design, used as the hero image for an article titled Shopify Premier Partner vs Shopify Plus Partner vs Shopify Platinum Partner The Truth Behind the Badges.
