The 24 Top Shopify Apps To Increase Sales For E-Commerce Stores, 2021 Edition

With over 6,000 apps available on the Shopify app store, it can be extremely overwhelming when trying to find the best ones for your ecommerce business.

The right app can help save you time while also driving more sales, so it’s key that you find ones that are optimal for you.

In this detailed guide, I’ll go over:

  • Why Shopify apps are so important 
  • The 24 most essential Shopify apps you need to install today
  • How to implement each app
  • How to increase your sales
  • The cost of each application
  • and a lot more

Let’s jump in.

The Importance of Shopify Apps

Shopify apps, if used correctly, have the potential to monumentally impact the performance of your ecommerce business.

Luckily for you, most Shopify apps are easy to set up and very affordable compared to the revenue they can generate.

Here are some of the key benefits they provide:

  • Save time so you can focus on more important tasks
  • Grow store traffic
  • Expand customer base
  • Add referral systems
  • Optimize conversions
  • Improve user experience

All of these key features fulfill the ultimate goal of increasing your store’s revenue and profit down the line

While using Shopify apps to grow your ecommerce sales is possible, it requires proper implementation and execution.

This is why I’ll show you the key features each app has and how to implement them properly into your store.

Furthermore, I’ll avoid showing multiple apps that provide identical functionality.

I noticed that most top Shopify apps guides list several apps that all do the same thing. This makes it even more confusing for people as now they’re unsure of which app to ultimately choose.

It’s much more important to actually pick an application that can potentially improve your business and actually start using it.

That being said, let’s get started.

The 24 Best Shopify Apps You Need To Use Today

I’ve been running ecommerce stores and using Shopify since 2017 and have tested hundreds, if not thousands, of different apps.

The list you’ll find below is a curated set of Shopify apps that have helped me scale dozens of different stores to 6-figures in sales.

Regardless of your store’s niche and current goals, each of these applications can be of value to you if utilized properly.  

1) Rebuy Personalization Engine

(Increase Average Order Value & Revenue)

rebuy personalization engine

Rebuy is one of my favorite applications because of the upsell and cross-sell capabilities it offers. 

Upselling and cross-selling are both strategies that help increase your store’s conversion rate and average order value.

To explain further, upselling and cross-selling are when you recommend additional products that your customers are likely to want.

Rebuy uses AI and machine learning to analyze your store’s data and customer purchase behavior. It then takes this data to create automatic and dynamic upsells, cross-sells, and order follow-ups.

This means that each customer will have unique product recommendations based on their behavior. 

Key Features

  • Real-time personalization and recommendations
  • Add product recommendations at key decisions points: home page, thank you page, cart, checkout, etc.
  • Offers a unique user experience to each customer based on their shopping patterns
  • Create and email links to pre-populated carts with auto-applied discount codes

Implementation

Rebuy is extremely easy to install and begins working immediately. Simply add the app to your Shopify store and go through the setup process by adding the cross-selling and upselling integrations to your website.

Then, Rebuy will automatically begin collecting data and optimizing your store for each unique customer.

I recommend giving Rebuy a few days to a week to collect data before expecting any drastic results.

Pricing

Rebuy has three pricing options:

  • Starter (Free) – Up to 50 orders per month
  • Professional ($4.49/month + $0.09/order) – Up to 10,500 orders per month
  • Enterprise ($949/month) – Unlimited monthly orders

The Professional and Enterprise plans come with a 21-day free trial. This allows you to test the application out before committing to a monthly plan.

I highly recommend you take advantage of the free trial and see what Rebuy can do for your online store.

2) Recharge Subscriptions

(Increase Customer Lifetime Value)

recharge subscriptions

Recharge is an application that allows you to set up automatic subscriptions for your products.

For example: if you are selling protein powder, you can allow customers to automatically purchase and receive the product every 4 weeks.  

Key Features

  • Integrates with the Klaviyo email marketing app I’ll discuss later on 
  • Creates brand loyalty
  • Let customers skip and reschedule deliveries
  • Let customers change products
  • Track performance and analytics

Implementation

Recharge allows you to set up your subscription program in just a few minutes. This is one of the best apps to increase the lifetime value (LTV) of each of your customers.

If you have an ecommerce store with a high customer return rate, this app can optimize the experience for previous customers and guarantee their future purchases.

Pricing

Recharge has two different pricing plans:

  • Standard (1% + $0.10/order) – Free to install
  • Pro (1% + $0.19/order) – $300/month

The main difference between them is that the Pro plan offers advanced analytics, custom checkout domains, and customizable shopper portals.

3) Justuno

(Increase Conversion Rate and Revenue)

justuno pop ups bundle upsell

Justuno provides an email pop-up, offer countdowns, exit offers, and upsell recommendations. 

It’s a very sophisticated and intelligent application that personalizes customer experiences at different touchpoints. With the ability to run split tests, you can truly take advantage of user data to make informed decisions.

Key Features

  • Display pop-ups on different areas of your website: full-screen overlay, center pop-up, top or bottom banner, and corner slide out
  • Split (A/B) testing to find optimal offers and pop-ups
  • Easy-to-use timers that create a sense of urgency for shoppers
  • Advanced targeting rules: time on the website, items in cart, amount $ in cart, etc.

Implementation

Justuno is an application that provides a big payoff if you spend enough time going through trial and error. 

By optimizing your pop-ups and offers, you can significantly improve your conversion rate and revenue.

Pricing

Justuno offers four different pricing options:

  • Free Plan (14 days) – Up to 5,000 visitor sessions
  • Pro Plan 1 ($29/month) – Up to 10,000 monthly visitor sessions
  • Pro Plan 2 ($49/month) – Up to 25,000 monthly visitor sessions
  • Pro Plan 3 ($99/month) – Up to 50,000 monthly visitor sessions

Each plan offers the same features, so the only difference is how much traffic your website is getting.

Furthermore, there are additional plans available for websites with over 50,000 monthly visitor sessions. 

4) Dexter: Price A/B Testing

(Increase Revenue and Conversion Rate)

dexter price split testing

Dexter is an A/B price testing tool that allows you to test different prices for your products. 

This allows you to find the optimal price point for each of your products, which leads to a higher overall profit margin.

By testing and finding the perfect price for each of your products, you can drastically increase your store’s performance without having to touch your ads at all.

Key Features

  • The price tested product will show the same URL – this means you don’t have to change your links on Shopify, Facebook ads, or Google ads
  • Compatible with Klaviyo
  • Begin testing with just one-click
  • Easy-to-understand performance metrics – monitor revenue per 100 visitors to see which price is performing better

Implementation

After installing the application, all you have to do is:

  1. Select a product
  2. Decide the price difference you want to test
  3. Choose the percentage of visitors sent to the test price

Then, I recommend giving the tool a few days to collect a large enough sample size to determine the best price for your product. You can also continue testing different prices until you find one with the highest ROI.

Pricing

Dexter is free to install and doesn’t have any limits on the number or duration of price tests. The app charges based on the number of visits to price tests.

5) Bundle Bear

(Increase Average Order Value and Revenue)

bundle bear volume discounts and bundles

Bundle Bear is an incredibly powerful application that allows you to create volume discounts, product bundles, and tiered pricing.

For example, let’s say you have an online ecommerce store selling multivitamins. With Bundle Bear, you can give customers the option to purchase 2 for 5% off, 3 for 10% off, 4 for 15% off, etc.

Here’s an example of what this can look like in your store:

Through volume discounting, you can increase your store’s average order value, which is one of the most important profitability metrics for ecommerce businesses. 

Key Features

  • Easy-to-create product bundles on product pages
  • Offer mix and match product bundles with unique discounts
  • Display discounted prices on product and checkout pages
  • Doesn’t require any theme or code editing
  • Advanced reporting and analytics

Implementation

Average order value is often overlooked by new ecommerce business owners. 

Think about it like this. 

If you were to increase your AOV and keep your ad spend and the number of conversions per day the same, your store’s revenue and overall profit would have to increase.

So, I recommend creating volume discounts for your most popular products first. Then, you can try adding mix and match bundles with products that are regularly purchased together.

Pricing

Bundle Bear costs $19.99/month and gives you the ability to create unlimited bundles. It also comes with a 14-day free trial so you can see if the application is right for you.

6) Oberlo

(Find Products and Fulfill Orders)

Oberlo is the perfect application for ecommerce entrepreneurs who need help finding products and fulfilling orders.

The app has an entire marketplace of verified products and suppliers to choose from. Furthermore, you can easily add the product to your Shopify store and directly ship the products to your customers from the supplier.

Key Features

  • Find products for any niche
  • Oberlo suppliers can ship the products directly to your customer
  • Test new products without having to purchase inventory upfront

Implementation

Oberlo is an application that is popular among dropshippers. Dropshipping is a form of ecommerce that relies on the supplier shipping the product directly to the customer. This means that the dropshipper doesn’t need to purchase inventory or ship products.

I recommend using this application if you’re creating a new ecommerce store or looking for more product ideas.

Pricing

Oberlo comes with two different pricing plans:

  • Explorer (Free) – Add up to 500 products to your store
  • Boss ($29.90/month) – Add up to 30,000 products to your store

Each plan also offers unlimited monthly orders and access to the Oberlo Chrome extension. 

On top of being able to add more products to your store, the Boss plan also offers bulk orders, shipment tracking, multiple staff accounts, and an affiliate program.

7) Replay Site Recorder & Surveys

(Optimize User Experience and Pinpoint Key Issues)

replay site recorder and surveys

Replay is a Shopify application that provides live recordings showing you how users interacted with your store. 

By analyzing replays, you can fully understand how people navigate and browse through your website. This can help pinpoint key issues you might’ve not noticed before.

Key Features

  • Record full user sessions from start to finish
  • Analytics and insights to easily optimize your store
  • Post-purchase surveys sent to shoppers that allow further feedback

Implementation

You can gain a lot of insight by watching a replay of a user session. Through the replay, you can detect where users get stuck the most during their view time.

Then, you can optimize each of these touchpoints to drastically improve your store’s conversion rate.

Pricing

Replay offers two different price plans:

  • Free – 100 unique visitors per month
  • Growth ($29/month) – 10,000 unique visitors per month

The Growth plan also comes with a free 7-day trial, custom events, custom rules, and live chat support. 

Furthermore, if you choose to record more than 10,000 unique visitors per month, it costs $10 for every additional 5,000 unique visitors.

8) Better Reports

Implementation

With the unlimited customizability of Better Reports, there are dozens of ways you can utilize this tool to help your business.

  • Track best-selling products
  • Track performance of marketing campaigns
  • Track sales per discount code
  • Track most and least profitable products
  • Track inventory levels
  • Track performance of Facebook and Google ads

Pricing

Since Better Reports utilizes the data in your Shopify account, the pricing depends on which Shopify plan you have.

  • Shopify – $39.90/month
  • Advanced Shopify – $149.90/month

9) Klaviyo

(Email Marketing to Increase Revenue and Drive Traffic)

klaviyo email marketing and SMS

Klaviyo is an email marketing application that allows you to set up automated email sequences and campaigns. 

If you’ve never tried email marketing for your ecommerce store, now’s the time to take advantage.

Through email marketing, you can substantially increase your revenue and conversion rate.

Key Features

  • Prebuilt forms, templates, and automations
  • Send personalized/targeted emails
  • SMS marketing automation
  • One-click integration
  • ROI-based reporting
  • Unlimited A/B split testing

Implementation

In terms of implementation, I have multiple different automatic emails (sequences/flows) that get sent at various times.

These include:

  • Customer Acquisition Flow – a series of welcome emails for users that entered their email in the newsletter pop-up
  • Cart Recovery Flow – a series of emails that get sent out over 5 days for users who added a product to their cart, but left the store without checking out
  • New Customer Nurture Flow – a series of emails that get sent out as soon as a customer orders a product

On top of the email flows, you can send out massive campaigns to all of your subscribers to promote Holiday or temporary store sales.

Pricing

Klaviyo’s pricing depends on how many users you have on your email list:

  • Free – Up to 250 email contacts and 50 SMS contacts
  • Email (starts at $20/month) – Up to 500 email contacts and upgrade as you grow
  • SMS (starts at $5/month) – Up to 150 SMS contacts and upgrade as you grow

10) Loox

(Build Social Proof and Trust with Customers)

loox product reviews

Loox is a product reviews app that allows customers to post a review of a product they purchased. Customers can also upload a picture along with their reviews.

Having good product reviews in your online store increases trust with new customers, which in turn leads to more conversions.

Key Features

  • Sends automatic and customizable request emails to previous customers asking them to review their product
  • Beautiful design that brings life to your product and category pages
  • Easy setup and doesn’t slow your website down

Implementation

Loox, or any other product review app, is a must-have on your Shopify store. Product reviews are highly important in the ecommerce space because people inherently gravitate towards products other users already like.

Think about when you’re shopping online at Amazon. Chances are, you will only buy a product that has 4 stars or above.

Product reviews are even more important for new customers who aren’t familiar with your brand. Just a few product reviews can instantly build the amount of trust needed to capture the conversion.

Pricing

Each of the four different price plans comes with a 14-day free trial:

  • Beginner ($9.99/month) – 100 monthly review request emails
  • Essential ($29.99/month) – 300 monthly review request emails, Loox widgets, custom questions
  • Growth ($34.99/month) – 6,000 monthly review request emails, video reviews, google shopping, full customization

Each more expensive plan comes with all of the features in the previous plans as well.

11) Bulk Product Edit

(Save Time by Automatically Making Large Store Changes)

bulk product edit and CSV import

Bulk Product Edit gives you the ability to quite literally bulk edit your products.

For example, let’s say you wanted to increase the price of all the products in your ‘Hoodies’ collection by 10%. Bulk Product Edit allows you to automatically do this with a click of a few buttons.

Key Features

  • Ability to filter products to edit by collection, type, vendor, tags, title, description, and much more
  • Preview the products that are going to be edited before actually starting the edit
  • Edit using CSV or Excel files
  • Ability to undo bulk edits in case of any errors
  • Schedule edits to be run at later times
  • No downtime on your store when the app is editing

Implementation

This product is a complete lifesaver for ecommerce stores with over 100 products. Back in the day, I remember having to manually edit over 300 products because a variant was misspelled. 

After discovering this app, I’ve been able to save hours of time and weight off my shoulders.

Pricing

Bulk Product Edit comes with four different pricing options:

  • Demo (Free) – 10 products per task
  • Basic ($9.99/month) – 500 products per task
  • Professional ($19.99/month) – 5,000 products per task
  • Advanced ($49.00/month) – 50,000 products per task

Each plan allows you to make unlimited bulk edits and CSV import tasks per month. The main difference is how many products you’re allowed to edit per task. 

12) Image Optimizer

(Increase Website Load Time and User Experience)

image optimizer and compression

Image Optimizer is a compression tool that reduces the file size of all the images on your website without sacrificing image quality.

  • Ability to convert PNG to smaller JPG files
  • Provides image backups and restores
  • Automatically scans for new images and optimizes them

Implementation

This is another must-have application for all Shopify store owners. Slow page speeds will significantly hurt your store’s ability to get customers.

In fact, 53% of mobile site visitors will leave a page if it takes longer than 3 seconds to load.

Furthermore, just a 1-second delay in load time reduces customer satisfaction by 16%.

Luckily for you, Image Optimizer is one of the easiest apps to set up. All you have to do is install the app into Shopify, run the program once, and then it will automatically scan for new images and optimize them in the future.

Pricing

Image Optimizer offers four different plans depending on how many images you want to compress:

  • Free – Up to 50 images
  • Basic ($4.99/month) – 1,000 images per month
  • Advanced ($9.99/month) – 2,000 images per month
  • Premium ($19.99/month) – 5,000 images per month

The only difference between each plan is how many images you can compress every month. All the other features are the exact same.
