Best free apps

[Selforigin]

Hello there, just wondering what are some of the best free/low-cost apps on Shopify? I don want them to be spammy apps, maybe something that can compare to John lewis, Fourseasons, Selfridges sites. I'd like to make my store as professional as possible.

Thanks a lot.

Hi Selforgin, with a quick search, I come across a variety of free apps (low cost) with thousand of reviews. To mention a few:

• BEST Currency Converter by Grizzly Apps SRL - 4.8 ⭐ (7158 reviews).
• Klaviyo: Marketing Automation by Klaviyo - 4.3of 5 stars ⭐ (1008 reviews).
• Printify: Print on Demand by Printify - 4.3 ⭐ (1462 reviews).

In addition, there are lots of newly released free apps that actually noteworthy for a look:

• On Time Delivery by Appsonrent.
• Zigpoll ‑ Survey & Form Popup by The Best Agency.
• Product Labels Pro by BSSCommerce (yes, it's our app).

For more, you can have a look at the Shopify app store here.

Speaking of which, I believe if you can specify your demand:

• What do you need the app for? e.g marketing, checkout, cart, delivery, etc.
• How much can you afford? e.g ranging from $50 - $150.

Then we could give you a better answer that satisfies your needs & wants.

Hey, 

There are lots of free apps.. I can suggest few, If you please mention your exact needs.

Also, You can try this one for any kinda niche store- https://apps.shopify.com/tada-pop-ups-game-emails   I am using it. You can use far longer with the free package. It's a gamified email popup app that asks the shopper to play a game to ‘win’ bigger discounts. Tada’s engaging pop-ups will allow you to collect more email addresses.

You can try Messent . It helps you to send sms marketing to your customers. You can organize your marketing campaig, analyze and receive report as well. And you don't have to pay cause it's free.

@Selforigin you could at least use a social proof addon, like free plan from "Social Proof popup maker". 

While on the subject, gamification comes in many different shapes and forms. From the reviews, the spinning wheel seems has the most popular vote, which begs the question, why? I wonder.

Hi @Selforigin,

For free apps, I would recommend Facebook Chatbox by Autoketing. It runs smoothly. 

For low-cost apps, Upsell Cross-sell Smart Tool is on the menu. Compare to the revenue it brings to my Shopify Store, I consider it as the best 4.99 bucks I've ever spent.

Hope you find this useful. Cheers!

The BeProfit - Profit Tracker is a free app that gives you a dashboard to track and analyze your store's profits and expenses (including production, shipping, marketing costs). With BeProfit - Profit Tracker you can easily understand your data at a glance and discover where to focus your effort in order to maximize your Shopify store's profit.

Give Upsell Wizard a try. Its got a Free Forever plan (which supports 200 add to carts per month) and can definitely help you increase average order value. 

You basically just setup which products you want to trigger funnel (series or list) of offers. When a customer adds a trigger product or collection to their cart, they are presented with the offers you setup. This can mean that, instead of adding a single product to their cart, a customer may add 2 or 3, possibly doubling or tripling the amount they spend with you.

If your store gets a lot of traffic, there are also paid plans that are much cheaper than the competition. Even on the free plan, though, there is no branding from the app so its completely transparent and will let you look professional.
