Shopify authorized an additional $3 billion in share repurchases, bringing its total buyback authorization to $5 billion.

The e-commerce company said Tuesday the move reflects its confidence in its business and opportunity ahead.

As of June 1, Shopify has repurchased about $1.45 billion under its current authorization. The company said it will continue to execute the program using pre-arranged algorithmic trading guidelines with no set quarterly or annual minimums.
