Top 5 Must Have Shopify Apps
Whether you are a Shopify pro or you are just kicking things off. The apps below are all must-haves. Why? Because you will sell more products, having larger cart sizes with a higher conversion rate while building a database of epic customer reviews. There is also the bonus of allowing your customers to return an item if needed quickly.
In no specific order our top 5 are:
1. Judge.Me
In our opinion Judge.Me is the must-have app for every single Shopify store. It’s ability to generate ‘Verified’ product reviews is second to none. These product reviews are a crucial driver of sales and will dramatically increase your conversion rate the more you get. Check out our full blog on Judge.Me to learn more.
2. PushOwl
You know those little notifications you get from your internet browser that pop up usually in the top right? Those can be achieved by using an app called PushOwl. PushOwl is an extremely cost-effective way to build another audience that you can use to target specific messages at. When customers hit your site for the first time, PushOwl will ask them if they would like to receive notifications in the future from you. If they accept, you have now got another way to ensure your marketing message hits them. When we run campaigns for the brands, we look after we will always do an email, social posts and a PushOwl as part of our digital strategy. PushOwl creates sales we have seen this first hand. The best way to make this part of your strategy is to download and set up the app. Once you get past a certain amount of subscribers on the free plan, upgrade to the paid plan so you can customise your pop-ups to look top-notch. At $20 per month, the Pro plan is well worth the investment.
3. Privy
Privy is the king of pop up notifications for your website. It is ideal for when you have something specific you want to say or any action you want your customer to take. Collecting emails, offering a discount when a customer shows exit intent, having a pop up notifying the customer of the latest items in stock. The combinations and possibilities are endless. It can be a bit daunting at first, but the team at Privy are epic, and we would highly recommend taking a free call with one of their team to build out how the app would work best for you.
4. Return Magic
If you have a product that has the ability for customers to require a return, Return Magic is a must-have for your site. Returns can get messy, so making sure your customer has a clear pathway to lodge a return with specific instructions to return is vital. From your side, you also want to see what the return is and why. Return Magic has a range of features and can be customised to fit your requirements. It is also very cost-effective.
5. Discounted Upsells & Upsell Bundles by Booster Apps

We have tried a variety of different apps designed to Cross-Sell & Upsell customers. Two we are particularly fond of is the options from Booster Apps.
