Buy Button channel
All reviews
Needs the ability to add more than just one product at a time at a time instead of having to create collections (since I like to add these buttons to the end of a blog so the combination of items will be different) Also wish there was a way to custom design the "View Product" button since there are some unnecessary things that show up when I click on view product (but I don't wanna have to change the product page just for that). View Product button literally pulls everything from your product page including custom codes. It just looks awful
Thank you for taking the time to write your review and for providing us with your feedback. I can certainly see why these suggested changes to the Buy Button app would be helpful and as such I have submitted this feedback to our development team for their consideration. Merchant feedback plays a large part in our decision making process when it comes to making improvements to the apps that Shopify offers, so we appreciate you letting us know your thoughts on what would help make the Buy Button app more useful. -Victor, Shopify Support
Loved the convenience of the buy button for my customer! It allowed easy access for the customer to buy the item we were emailing about.
It is great to use and very clean. I am trying to figure out how to create a buy button for our emails though.
Need variants, more customization in general (layout, etc). Certain features cannot be displayed (eg subscription apps).
Thank you for taking the time to leave your review and provide us with your feedback. I can certainly appreciate why it'd be beneficial to have greater customization options for the Buy Button, and for apps to be incorporated into its display. I will be sending you an email shortly where I'd be happy to hear any other feedback you have for the Buy Button, and to see if I can help in any other way. Please keep an eye out for my email and I look forward to hearing back from you. -Victor, Shopify Support
This is very special. You can sell anywhere as long as you can insert the code. You can use it on your articles, pages and even outside Shopify. You just have to be creative and it will serve you very well! - jingajuice.com.ph -
We use this app to add select products to our racing website (on different hosting service) and promote different products across that URL. It works pretty well, but product selection is limited by collections. So, I created special collections just for our buy button channel. The greatest feature of this app is the universal coding. It allows you to drop your buy button channel into any other hosting service or web page. It doesn't function and look exactly like your store might, but it's close enough to be relevant to your original store. We are also using an affiliate business' Shopify Buy Button coding to insert their products in our racing website.
I love, LOVE the ability to be able to sell through Buy Buttons. It really helps to give me the freedom to build how and where I'd like, while still using the power of the Shopify framework. The only downside I've found thus far is that it gets a little tricky when it comes to all of the integrations. Certain features (like the abandoned cart emails) don't seem to work when people purchase through the buy button, even though it records the abandoned cart in my dashboard. I also find that the use of the other Shopify apps isn't as seamless when using the buy buttons--which has made for a few headaches and a lot more work. I'm hoping things will get smoothed out and more features will be integrated as time goes on <3
We wanted to use it on our pages and blogs, but the button led the user to a new cart instead of the store's cart. Not useful. It's nothing to be "fixed" as in the developer's reply, it's the limitations of the whole app itself.
Thank you sharing this feedback on the Buy Button app. I'm sorry to hear about the troubles you're having with the cart pages, and I'd really like to look into your specific experience further. I've sent you an email so that we can discuss this in more detail. I look forward to hearing back from you! - Rae, Shopify Support
Thank you Shopify, Great app! I used this app and really helps to make more sales, I recommend it.
So far so good. I put the buy button on my website to make it easy for people to purchase as soon as they hit the home page, without having to go any further (because I only have one product right now). Worked like a charm.
Easy to use and to setup. Allows me to us just the part of Shopify that I need since I host my own online store. Just what I wanted!
Easy to use/customize. Has generated decent sales when we place on our partner sites that are not on the shopify platform. I would request more customization on where the cta button takes the user. It would be great if we could link to the actual product page instead of just listbox pop up of description, cart, or checkout. This is because we have deeper content for each product with meta fields, placed in tabbed containers on our customized product pages and the buy now button doesn't offer a straight link to the page. Otherwise it's really great.
It's a great concept but it doesn't link with the customers actual cart! this makes it useless. Please make it a live cart then it will be great!
Thanks for sharing this feedback! The Buy Button will add products to a separate cart than the the cart page created via your online store. This happens because your online store and the Buy Button are technically two separate sales channels. That said, we’re always working to improve the way our apps work, so I’ve followed up with you via email to log your feedback for our development team. - Lauren, Shopify Support
Allows me to sell products on other sites without a huge hassle -- a very elegant solution and our partner sites are loving it.
I have enabled the buy button on my products but I have to say I don't have any idea where they are or what sales channel they are attached to. I would like to understand better about these tools. I've been notified that some amount of sales are coming in through them so apparently it's doing something good.
Easy to install and use. The only thing i didn't appreciate is, that the prouduct you put in your cart are not synchronized with the cart on the website. Seems like Buy Button has it's own cart.
This app has really improved my conversion rate for targeted advertising, it makes it very simple for customers to quickly go through the buying process and the feedback I'm getting from them is very positive. I will continue to use it and I plan on adding it to more campaigns in the future.
I love that I can include this buy button app within my blog posts, so people don't have to click over and go to another page to make a purchase.
I used this app on an existing website for a non-profit. It was just what we needed and simple to add and implement.
It's an excellent tool to sell my products directly from my webpage. Much easier than the other solutions I have tried before.
