Looking for a Payment Calculator

Topic summary

Need: A Shopify merchant selling high-ticket outdoor power equipment wants a per-product financing calculator on product pages. Their previous option appears unsupported and they seek an app or easier integration.

Suggestions offered:

  • Try Shopify App Store financing/calculator tools, with “Option Price Calculator” flagged as a more advanced choice. Also consider proposal/quote (RFQ) apps reworded for financing messaging.
  • Implement a custom solution via theme customizations using metafields, tags, or metaobjects (Shopify data structures for storing/displaying custom product data). Consultancy help was offered via email.
  • Another contributor advised either testing several ready-made apps or commissioning a fully custom Shopify app, recommending consultation with a Shopify professional.

Clarification from the requester: Looking for an automotive-style loan calculator that shows OEM-specific financing per product (OEM = Original Equipment Manufacturer). They provided a product example link and asked for concrete app recommendations or a referral to a developer.

Status: No specific tool chosen yet. Next steps are to trial shortlisted apps or engage a developer for a custom solution. Discussion remains open without a final resolution.

Good afternoon!

My company deals with large cost products in the outdoor power equipment space, and as such we deal with financing. I want a way to allow customers to see financing options for their products, and while I have found an option it appears to be no longer supported. I am curious if anyone knows of an App that maybe I am unable to track down that will allow me to assign financing options to certain products, or if anyone knows if there is an easier way to integrate a financing calculator into product pages?

Thank you in advance.

Hi @ARNS_David :waving_hand: There are several “calculator” apps in the app store

Possibly with https://apps.shopify.com/option-price-calculator being the most advanced

Though you may also want to look at propsal apps like “quote” “RFQ”|“RFQP”, or “submit proposal” type apps where you just rename everything for the proper messaging.

This can also be done with one time advanced theme customizations using metafields, tags, or even metaobjects depending on the business logic needed.

If you need this customization or consulting then contact me by my email for services.

ALWAYS please provide context, examples: store url, theme name, post url(s) , or any further detail in ALL correspondence.

Good Luck.

Hello @ARNS_David ,

I need more details to assist you. In general, you have two options: you can try a ready-made Shopify app (it would be useful to test a few) or develop a fully custom Shopify app. Anyway, consulting with a Shopify professional would be helpful for you.

Best regards,

Hey Paul!

Thanks for the detailed response. What we are realistically looking for is something similar to the automotive loan calculators you see for auto dealers. Ideally, something where we can assign in the backend specific pricing as OEM. So for something like this 96" Zero Turn (https://test.arns.ca/collections/inventory/products/38-hp-kohler-efi-w-96-turbo-force-rd-deck?_pos=1&_fid=a4c940ab7&_ss=c) we’d want to be able to show pricing available from the manufacturer. It’s a bit tricky, so if you have a recommendation - or are maybe able to point me to someone who can make that, that would be awesome.
