Any suggestions for a user-friendly try before you buy app?

Topic summary

Request for a user-friendly “try before you buy” (TBYB) app for a Shopify store, preferring a native Shopify option over external setups.

TBYB model: customers receive items to try and pay later, or return without upfront charge.

Suggestions and links:

  • General: Use apps offering free trials to test fit.
  • Growave: an all‑in‑one marketing suite (loyalty, wishlist, reviews, shoppable Instagram, social login) with a free trial; not specifically a TBYB solution.
  • Tryon: a Shopify app positioned for TBYB (link provided).
  • TryNow: a Shopify app claiming native integration with Shopify checkout after two years of collaboration (link provided).

Additional note: Another participant asked whether a TBYB plugin was found, indicating continued interest and no clear solution yet.

Outcome/status:

  • No confirmation from the original poster; no consensus reached. Discussion remains open.
  • Actionable next steps: Evaluate Tryon and TryNow via their Shopify app listings and use free trials to assess suitability for the store’s TBYB needs.
