“Ecommerce is converging. People, data and profit all need to be connected in real time.”
Dan Loughlin CEO
A New Brand Connecting People, Data & Profit
As we move into a new era of ecommerce our brand is changing too. ‘Connecting People, Data & Profit’ reflects our commitment to grow a successful, expansive trading ecosystem with our merchants at its core.
The core pillars of the IRP Commerce Cloud Shopper - Trader - World create the right foundation for merchant profitability .
The New Trading Terminal
Trading is so central to the IRP ecosystem that we’ve renamed Insights Terminal to Trading Terminal. It’s not just a name change, it’s where merchant trading data comes alive. It’s a whole new level of visibility and control.
* Sales data is purely representational
Tradeview Bar
As an extension to Trading Terminal we’re bringing merchants a new Tradeview product that wraps around Shopper. View customer and product sales data directly within the shopping experience. It’s a breakthrough for real time data and analytics.
* Sales data is purely representational
Insights App
We’ve also enhanced Insights. The new app gives merchants a view of sales across the whole business in real time, whether that’s B2C, B2B, retail or the combined operation.
* Sales data is purely representational
IRP Marketing Cloud Upgrades
We’ve continued our investment. We’ve rebuilt our email marketing engine from the ground up. Marketing Cloud now brings merchants the power and revenue potential of intelligent event-driven marketing. Set templates, frequency, segmentation and rules for mailshot or remarketing emails and let them run automatically.
* Sales data is purely representational
“IRP Commerce Cloud now connects products, services and data for the first time. It is built for the ecommerce professional.”
Phil Macartney CCO
Shopper UX Improvements
We didn’t forget about Shopper, it’s packed full of new features like model page colour and size attribute selection styles, brand new Live Chat, saving payment cards to profile, seamless auto-scaling and much more.
* Sales data is purely representational

A new era of ecommerce trading has begun.
How do IRP Merchants move to Version 8?
The upgrade from Version 7 to Version 8 will not happen automatically as in previous releases. To begin the Version 8 transition process each merchant needs to sign up to the new IRP Merchant Agreement.
Merchants’ commercial terms and conditions are not changing. New contracts will clarify IRP platform entitlements, IRP World service entitlements and meet the latest GDPR legislation.
IRP continues to invest in our merchants’ success with a £3 million, 18-month investment in Version 8.
The Version 8 release process will begin on Monday October 25th for merchants who have transitioned to the new Merchant Agreement.
Philip Macartney is your contact for the merchant contractual transition process. An explanation of products, services and entitlements can be found here.
