Demo website for apps

Shopify Apps

Topic summary

A developer created an appaza-preloader app and wants to set up a demo website to showcase it without initial costs.

Suggested Solution:

  • Use Shopify’s free trial to create a test store
  • Install and demonstrate the app on that test site

Cost Concerns:

  • Appears to reference a potential pricing model: $1 for the first month, then $25/month afterward
  • Uncertain whether they need to pay after a brief trial period (possibly 3 days)

Assuming you have your app developed locally, you can use shopify free trial to setup a test store and try it on that site.
