The 13 best Shopify apps in 2025


It can be dizzying for Shopify merchants to scroll through the thousands of available apps, and sometimes, you just want a recommendation. That’s why I turned to Shopify merchants to find out which apps they use.

Keep in mind that depending on what you’re selling—and who you’re selling it to—these apps might not be the right choices for you. These are the best tools according to the merchants I spoke to, but it’s definitely worth browsing the directory and perusing other lists, too, to see what else is out there.

The best Shopify apps

What is a Shopify app?

A Shopify app is an add-on that brings more functionality to Shopify. 

Sometimes, a Shopify app is found only on Shopify—it’s built for Shopify (and sometimes by Shopify). For example, Linkpop is a free Shopify app that lets you sell on Shopify from a link in bio page. Linkpop doesn’t exist outside of Shopify.

But in a lot of cases, Shopify apps are integrations with existing apps. For example, Mailchimp has a Shopify app, as does HubSpot. If you already use a specific app, check to see if it has a Shopify app—it probably does, and it means you can bring its functionality directly into Shopify.

Best Shopify app for shipping

ShipStation

ShipStation, our pick for the best Shopify app for shipping

As you can imagine, there are countless shipping apps on Shopify. If you already use a shipping app for your business and you’re just switching to Shopify, your existing solution almost certainly already has a Shopify app.

But if you’re shopping around for a new shipping app—one that plays really well with Shopify—ShipStation is a great option.

Justin Yampolsky, managing director of Muzeum (part of Global Bullion Suppliers), told me his favorite thing about ShipStation is how easy it is to use—it saves his team about two hours a day. 

It’s especially helpful if you have multiple stores. “It can integrate into one area where we can manage shipping details, and it easily syncs with different stores we have, along with eBay,” Justin told me. He also noted how intuitive it is to manage returns and create pre-paid shipping labels. And that’s just the tip of the shipping iceberg: ShipStation also lets you view stock levels, set inventory alerts, and allocate stock using real-time insight into the SKUs. 

ShipStation also integrates with Zapier, so you can connect it to all the other apps you use, too. Learn more about automating ShipStation, or get started with one of these pre-made workflows.

ShipStation pricing: From $9.99/month for up to 50 shipments

Best Shopify app for upselling and cross-selling

ReConvert Upsell & Cross Sell

ReConvert, our pick for the best Shopify app for upselling and cross-selling

Upselling and cross-selling are two tactics you can use to increase how much someone spends at your store when they already plan to buy something. And Shopify has an app to put them to work automatically.

Shopify Plus users can download ReConvert Upsell & Cross Sell, an app that adds upselling and cross-selling opportunities to your store. It especially focuses on post-checkout upsells and cross-sells to encourage customers to buy more right after a purchase.

James Wilkinson, the CEO and co-founder of Balance One Supplements, an online supplement store, uses this app to increase average order value (AOV). “With this app, we can generate a personalized thank you page, an excellent opportunity to showcase helpful product suggestions to newly purchased customers,” James says. With this app, the Balance One Supplements team can also tailor the recommendations to the customers’ shopping habits and add a reorder button so customers can stock up on their supplements.

“But ReConvert isn’t just about increasing sales in the immediate post-purchase period,” James adds. “There are countdown timers, which make the purchases seem urgent and enticing. Also, post-purchase surveys allow us to collect feedback from customers that can assist us in optimizing the products we offer and our marketing efforts.”

ReConvert pricing: Free for development stores; from $4.99/month for up to 49 orders

Best Shopify app for email marketing

Klaviyo

Klaviyo, our pick for the best Shopify app for email marketing

Email marketing is another big category on Shopify—search for it, and you’ll get about 1,000 hits, hundreds of which will get the job done. If you’re already using Mailchimp, Omnisend, Brevo, tinyEmail, ActiveCampaign, or really any other email marketing app, you should stick with it and connect it to Shopify. 

But if you’re just starting out with email marketing and looking for a good option for Shopify, Klaviyo is a great pick. Its standalone app is already eCommerce-focused, so it brings a lot of great functionality to Shopify.

Klaviyo allows you to customize email marketing campaigns for customer segments, leveraging real-time and historical data. It can create coupon codes, offers solid built-in campaign templates (many of which are eCommerce-specific), and has great tracking reports.

Ben Camerota of MVP Visuals, which sells custom displays, event booths, and signs, told me that “Klaviyo has been our most important Shopify app since we began using their service five years ago.” He continued: “Across three different eCommerce sites we operate, Klaviyo allows us to stay in touch with our clients via email and SMS in so many ways that are critical to our success: to send quotes, automate our art proof process, recover abandoned carts, and even request reviews.”

He also told me that the app has a great support community, which allows them to request feedback and learn from other experienced Klaviyo subscribers.

Plus, Klaviyo integrates with Zapier, so it works well with all the apps you use—not just Shopify. Learn more about how to automate Klaviyo, or get started with one of these pre-made workflows.

Klaviyo pricing:  Free for up to 250 contacts on email and 150 SMS/MMS credits; paid plans start at $15/month for SMS and $20/month for email.

Best Shopify app for shoppable videos

ReelUp

ReelUp, our pick for the best Shopify app for shoppable videos

Now that our favorite video apps (like TikTok and Instagram) have stores, it makes sense to use a video shopping format for that extra eye-catching factor.

ReelUp adapts the social video format for Shopify stores. It lets you upload any of your Instagram Reels or TikTok videos and turn them into shoppable videos on your store. The Instagram support is especially helpful for stores in countries where TikTok is banned or could be banned in the future.

The app can present your videos in many of the formats you see on your favorite social platforms, including stories and carousels. And it promises to have a minimal impact on page speed on desktop and mobile.

“ReelUp is one app we really love at Maximo Moto,” says Dawood Ahmad, lead content marketer at the motorcycle gear and clothing chain. “It has been so great at improving our stay time and conversion. It captures attention and facilitates the purchase experience. We can also put influencers’ content into this and harvest their credibility for our stores.”

ReelUp pricing: Free for up to 100 video views (4 seconds or more) a month and 10 uploads; from $39.99/month for 4,000 video views a month and 100 uploads

Best Shopify app for product reviews

Loox

Loox, our pick for the best Shopify app for product reviews

Social proof will always be integral to customer growth for eCommerce stores, and reviews are one of the best ways to offer that proof. 

Loox helps you incentivize customers to submit video and photo reviews. It then lets you customize where those reviews appear on your site, using widgets that layer seamlessly with your design template. Loox incentivizes reviews through email campaigns in order to offer customers discount codes and other extras.

Tom Golubovich uses Loox at the direct-to-film (DTF) printing service, Ninja Transfers. He told me: “Loox is a fantastic app for building brand trust and authority using neatly designed photos and reviews.” He also went out of his way to tell me that it works really well with all of Shopify’s other features, no matter what you’re trying to build.

“Our store is heavily packed with product visuals, recommendations, and reviews across so many different pages,” he said, “which is why we needed an app that seamlessly handles all of these additions and offers various widgets to optimize each and every page. We tested a few competitors, but we found Loox to fit our needs the best.”

Loox pricing: From $9.99/month for 100 monthly review request emails (no video reviews); from $34.99/month to add video reviews and all integrations.

Best Shopify app for landing pages

PageFly

PageFly, our pick for the best Shopify app for landing pages

Different types of page builders vibe with different people. While Shopify has its own page builder for you to use, you can also find more options on the app store if it’s lacking the features you want.

Many of the merchants who shared their opinions chose PageFly as one of their favorite apps—including Kate Ross, hair and beauty specialist at Irresistible Me, a hair extension and wig company. “For creating custom landing pages, this app is awesome. No coding needed, just drag and drop. We’ve used it to design promo pages and tweak our homepage without having to bug a developer,” Kate says.

Many of the reviews on the Shopify App Store also praise the app’s customer service, and the app team’s responsiveness to reviews backs up those claims. So, if you need extra help getting your page together or notice a bug, you can count on PageFly’s support to lend a hand.

PageFly pricing: Free for 1 published slot (equivalent to 1 page or section); from $24/month for 5 published slots and higher

Best Shopify app for data management

Matrixify

Matrixify, our pick for the best Shopify app for data management

Matrixify is a data management app for Shopify. It can import data from other eCommerce platforms, like WooCommerce, Big Commerce, and Lightspeed, as well as other databases like Excel and Google Sheets. This kind of bulk updating from other sources can save hours of manual work.

Mathias Mohlund, CEO and founder of Collectors Cage, which sells new and vintage bags and accessories, told me that Matrixify was huge for his team: “This powerful tool allowed us to streamline our data management on Shopify in ways we never thought possible. With Matrixify, we could bulk import and export data, make inventory updates, and handle stuff like order processing and customer management incredibly efficiently. We’ve saved hours of manual work.”

Mathias particularly appreciates Matrixify’s robust error-checking mechanism, which helped his team minimize “mistakes in data entries, ensuring accuracy and consistency across our online and offline channels.” He continued: “We also liked the ability to customize data fields and create tailored reports, which has given us deeper insights into our sales trends and customer preferences to help us make more informed business decisions.”

Matrixify: Free for 10 products, collections, customers, discounts, orders, payouts, pages, blog posts, and redirects; from $20/month for massively increased quantities of each.

Best Shopify app for loyalty programs

Yotpo Loyalty and Rewards

Yotpo, our pick for the best Shopify app for loyalty programs

Customer loyalty programs add a professional touch to your store and encourage customers to come back. While they can be tricky to code on your own, Shopify has apps to do the job for you.

Yotpo Loyalty and Rewards (a separate app from Yotpo Subscriptions) enables you to make your own loyalty program. It also has more than 20 pre-made programs you can use out of the box if you don’t want to fiddle around with them.

Klatch Coffee’s Justin Christopher shares how the company uses Yotpo Loyalty and Rewards for its Klatch Rewards: “This app allows us to award and track points for customers’ actions—like making purchases, following on social media, and more, and also handles customers’ redemption of their accumulated rewards points. One of the best features is the ability to offer a fully customized loyalty program with little, or even no, custom coding or developer cost—allowing us to spend our time on marketing and customer communications instead.”

This app covers just one part of Yotpo’s full retention marketing platform, which also includes email and SMS marketing, subscriptions, and reviews. And Yotpo works with Zapier so you can automate your retention marketing with automations. Here are some examples to get you started.

Yotpo Loyalty and Rewards pricing: Free with basic reward program features for stores with fewer than 100 monthly orders; $199/month and $0.20 per order after 500 orders/month for all reward program features

Best Shopify app for subscriptions

Conjured

Conjured, our pick for the best Shopify app for subscriptions

The surge of subscription-layered eCommerce stores has led to launch after launch of membership apps. Conjured is a great example: designed to add a membership program to your existing store, it lets you customize tiers and set up perks for your customers to access content, classes, and downloadable media.

Bryce Thomas of Obsessed Garage, a store specializing in garage and home products, told me that Conjured is what allowed them to monetize their digital platform and offer exclusive benefits to members of their Inside The Hex program. “This space is designed for those passionate about Obsessed Garage, providing behind-the-scenes insights into building the business, discovering new products, and more,” he told me. “Being integrated with Shopify makes managing memberships a breeze because they’re managed directly on the Shopify backend versus something like PayPal or Stripe.”

Using Conjured, Obsessed Garage can have customers buy a membership subscription as if it were a product on their store, and it doesn’t require any third-party gateways or payment processors. According to Bryce, “this increases conversions because of the ease of commitment and also allows memberships to be purchased at the same time as regular products.”

Conjured price: Free for Shopify Development Stores; from $19/month for unlimited members and membership revenue; from $69/month for lower transaction fees.

Best Shopify app for personalized shopping

Rebuy Personalization Engine

Rebuy, our pick for the best Shopify app for personalized shopping

Shopify has a built-in product recommendations feature where you can choose what other products to recommend on a product page. But this process can get tedious when you have a lot of products, and it only appears on product pages.

Rebuy Personalization Engine adds personalized recommendations across your store, including on product pages, in checkout, and in your search bar. It has some reselling and cross-selling features that overlap with Reconvert, but it’s available to users on all subscriptions and has a more holistic approach to personalization. Since Reconvert has a more niche offering for businesses with expensive Shopify plans and Rebuy appeals to a wider audience, they both can hold their own on this list.

Steve Hutt, owner of eCommerce Fastlane and former Shopify employee, considers Rebuy Engine his favorite app. “What I love most is how it remembers what customers buy and browse and then shows them products they’re actually interested in. It’s basically like having your best sales associate working around the clock, making perfect suggestions to every shopper,” Steve says.

“I also like how it increases order values,” Steve adds. “The smart cart feature suggests related items in such a smooth way that customers actually appreciate the recommendations. And I can’t say enough good things about their support team—Monica and Tom are incredibly helpful when you need them.”

Rebuy pricing: From $99/month for stores with up to 1,000 orders per month; 21-day free trial available

Best Shopify app for SEO

Smart SEO by Sherpas

Smart SEO, our pick for the best Shopify app for SEO

Before people buy from you, they need to find you. That’s why SEO remains one of the most important things for merchants as they build out their stores. If you already use an SEO tool, check to see if it has a Shopify app, but if you’re looking for an SEO app built for Shopify, Smart SEO is a great place to start.

Raivis Kaspars of ETNA DESIGN, which sells outdoor furniture and furnishings, uses Smart SEO to optimize his store. ETNA uses Smart SEO to quickly edit tags for multiple products, collections, and pages at once and to take advantage of customizable templates. “It identifies areas for improvement and allows us to easily fix them to improve the store’s search engine rankings,” he told me. “We’ve observed a consistent increase in customer visits since the app’s implementation.”

Smart SEO integrates with Google Search Console, uses AI to generate meta tags, helps you optimize everything from images to page speed, and can find broken links that could hurt your rankings.

Smart SEO price: Free for basic optimization; from $9.99/month for more features.

Best Shopify app for selling on Amazon

Buy with Prime

Buy with Prime, our pick for the best Shopify app for selling on Amazon

This one’s pretty self-explanatory: this app (built by Amazon) lets you easily add a Buy with Prime button on any product page. That can add some trustworthiness to your site, while also making it easier for folks to buy.

It smoothly integrates your product catalog, variations, tax, and promotions into Amazon, and the return process through Amazon’s fulfillment network removes a lot of headaches.

Jeffrey Frese of Eat My Face, which sells tallow-based moisturizers and sunblock, said, “Adding Buy with Prime to our Shopify store has been crucial for us as a new brand. It’s like an instant trust badge. Adding the button to our site has doubled our conversion rate, too.”

He continued: “Beyond just sales, it’s about establishing direct customer relationships. With Buy with Prime, we control these relationships, not Amazon. This is key for managing our brand and customer data. Plus, customers love and trust Prime, especially for its free two-day shipping, which boosts our credibility in the market.”

Buy with Prime price: Pay-as-you-go pricing (see here for details).

Best Shopify app for product detail editing

Bulk Product Edit by Hextom

Bulk Product Edit, our pick for the best Shopify app for editing product details

Hextom’s Bulk Product Edit app does exactly what its name implies: helps you quickly edit details for products in bulk—instead of one-by-one. It works with price details, but it also can change titles, descriptions, and SEO fields, along with any additional fields you add. For stores with a huge inventory, this is a game changer.

Jana Reid, founder and CEO of kids clothing and toy store Modern Rascals, recommended the app to me. “It solves a large number of operational pain points,” she told me, “considering we have a large store with around 6,500 SKUs.” Jana mentioned that they use it to activate discounts for hundreds of items at once and edit metadata like the materials, care instructions, or safety rating for a toy. And because you can automate it, you don’t have to be in front of your computer to do it for seasonal things, like Black Friday. “Hextom makes it happen easily,” Jana said.

Hextom Bulk Product Edit price: Free for unlimited bulk edit CSV import tasks, with 10 products per task and a 30-day backup; paid plans start at $9.99/month for more products and longer backups.
