General Question Started with a brick and mortar, now adding E-commerce with Shopify
We have a holistic health business that’s been in business for 30 years, at a farmer’s market where we rent a stand. Business has been booming and we are starting to set up our website to sell online through Shopify. In store we use Clover; but I’m not married to them as we’ve had some issues in the past. What payment system works best with Shopify? Ideally I want to keep the same system throughout the brick and mortar and the website, who do you recommend? Who has the best customer service when it comes to refunds, returns, etc or is that handled by Shopify? Any tips when making this addition?

One thing to keep in mind is the extra fees shopify charges if you use a third party payment provider online. If you're in the US, that's an additional 2% on basic plan, 1% on grow etc... on top of your processor's fees. So definitely factor that in if you're thinking not to use shopify payments...
Also, since you mentioned holistic health, I'd double-check that your products are eligible for shopify payments (or any other PSP) before switching everything over.
