Shop

We’ve been using the Shop app as a merchant and have found it to be an excellent tool for connecting with our customers. The way it handles images is particularly good. Our product photos scale down perfectly so customers always get a clean, professional look.
We’ve also seen a real benefit from the seamless product review integration. Displaying customer feedback directly in the app has helped build brand trust and gives new shoppers the confidence to make a purchase.
Overall, we highly recommend the Shop app to any merchant looking for a user-friendly, visually polished, and trust-building platform for their store.

I rarely give a 1 star review but Shop has been ruining us. We have different shipping options, including "Build a Box" or "Request for shipping quote". These 2 options are free for obvious reasons - as they are just add-on service we provide to our customers. We do not offer "Free Shipping". However Shop was designed in a way that whenever there is the keyword "Free" found under shipping options, it will automatically show "Free Shipping" when customers click on any items in our store. Since the customization settings are way to basic & rigid, we cannot edit to change how this was shown nor hiding it so that customers will not have a false impression that we offer free shipping. Because of this design flaw by Shop / Shopify, we have been receiving order cancellations because customers believed we provide Free Shipping!! This does not only add on to our admin work, it is basically killing us as a small business when all we are trying was to build our brand and gain trust from customers. We have brought this issue to Technical Support. While the agent that helped me was phenomenal, he couldn't help solve the problem as it's beyond his capability as well. If it is not because of this issue, we have no beef with Shop / Shopify. Hope someone is actually reading this and would help us solve this critical issue that's costing our business immensely.

It is actually great to have our store listed on the Shopify marketplace, however it does not show if items are in stock or not. Most of our complaints come from customers who thought items they ordered were in stock - but actually were on backorder - or a pre-order. Shop app does not show that. Shoppers would have to know to ask the AI if it is in stock - or try to direct them to our real website so they can see real stock availability. You cannot edit your Shop store very much either. Just very very basic tweeks. Can't select products you want to appear on your home page. For the developers: The "IT'S BAD" button does not work to submit a review for this app - only the "IT'S GOOD" button works. I wonder why?

I am pleased, overall, with my experience as someone new to building a store and no technical background. I'm not thrilled with having to pay for additional subscription apps to make it functional, but most of the apps at least have a "small" shop level that will allow me (and others) to scale before killing us with fees.

The technical support is quite abysmal. God forbid you have some 1-star archived reviews with your partner app (with issues already resolved with customers), they will cause a nightmare that is near-impossible to fix, as Shop will still reflect a negative rating, even once those reviews are permanently deleted. A true nightmare for Shopify's paying merchants. Be warned...

SO Far OK. at first a little confusing to get going, still not sure I fully understand everything. I think interface could be improved. I wish there was better organic discovery within the shop app, and I wish there was a web portal for it where people could browse online and favorite shops because alot of people still do desktop shopping and browsing, rather than phone. That said i have had SOME sales from it like a handful, so it's better than nothing! :)

Absolutely raging. My customers addresses are being merged with other postcodes when entering shipping address on this app. I have lost £200 of product being sent to incorrect addresses and my customers are raging. As am I. What you going to do about it? This is bad.

Great app on it's own but comes with the caveat that when customers who have used shop pay before go to checkout in your store, it implements a forced re-direct from your normal checkout page to a shop pay page where EVERY OTHER payment option you have painstakingly implemented for your store is HIDDEN. Literally holding your checkout page to ransom. "As a workaround, a customer prefers to use a different payment method, they will need to check out using an incognito browser OR select the Checkout as a Guest option in the Shop Pay checkout. Additionally, clearing their browser's cookies and cache completely—ideally from "All Time"—might help as well." This was the official reply I received from Shopify if you can believe it, I still can't.

A very slick channel, easy to edit, customers enjoy using it and the ease of checking out.

Unfortunately if you use, say infinite options because your catalogue is super wide rather than deep, and the ridiculous 100 variant cap is quickly met, shop will not work. and of course to upset customers who didn't get what they thought that might, it's all merchants fault according to shopify.

As soon as shopify gives all it's merchants the options of making more than 100 veriants I'll launch shop again. until then, they'll just keep shooting themselves in the feet thinking all stores sell 3 variants of stuff.

I am deeply disappointed and frustrated with Shopify's lack of effective security measures against fraudulent transactions. Recently, a customer made a purchase from my Shopify store, received the product and service promptly, and then falsely reported the transaction as fraudulent to their bank. Shopify did not flag the transaction as suspicious, and the customer's bank did not block their card either, yet they ruled against me. As a result, not only did I have to return the purchase amount, but I was also charged a $15 investigation fee by the bank.

Shockingly, the same customer exploited this vulnerability again just two weeks later, repeating the same fraudulent behavior. Once again, Shopify provided no warning or protection, resulting in another financial loss for me and another unjustified $15 fee.

In total, due to Shopify's inadequate security and the bank's oversight, I lost $230 in just one month. My store has been running successfully for seven years, and now I feel completely unprotected and vulnerable. This situation encourages dishonest people to exploit hard-working business owners like myself. I urge Shopify to strengthen their security protocols and protect their merchants from this type of blatant fraud and abuse.
