didn't even use app but it still charged me.
Dear Brooke, We understand how frustrating unexpected charges can feel, and we’re really sorry for the confusion here. From our records, the charge is only activated when the app is installed and a plan is approved on your store. So could you please double-check with your team to see if the app might have been installed or approved earlier? We’d really like to take a closer look and help resolve this for you. Please check our email in your mailbox [email protected] so we can investigate your specific case and assist you further. Sincerely, Zee - BOGOS Customer Support Lead

I have initially, chosen the BOGOS bundle app, due to it is visual strong appearance and the high number of 5 star reviews. Upon install, the free trial, which if i remember correctly was 15 days, ran out while i as still experimenting with the app as my experimental stage took longer than needed due to high frequency of needing to go back and forth to support team to fix things. One major draw back is that you have to keep on going back to dev team to adjust simple UX matters such as font size or glitch with add to cart button/text color as the app does not offer this. It feels as if you did not purchase a bundle app, instead you have purchased a subscription with support team. The second major item, is that i had to keep going back and forth with dev team to remind them to resolve some issues. For example, once i request bundle title font size adjustment, they fix it, then if it still needs adjustment had to go back to them to adjust font size again, this cycle could take 2 days. If it happens you do this near the weekend, then I have to wait 2 days until the weekend is over as they are off on weekends. Simple matters such as having a redirecting link bundle booster page (as my website is in 2 languages) had to go to support team to fix, which took several days, as the bundle does not accommodate language URL redirection out of the box. I had to wait for something like 7 days with live bundle booster page taking my English and arabic users to an arabic bundle page as you have to insert the full URL not only the later part of the URL for redirection. When I subscribed, I selected the Basic plan as it covers my needs, but after installation i discovered this plan is not available for my store and i had to go with Grow plan, paying more without BOGOS fully disclosing that if your shopify store is on the Grow plan, then you need the BOGOS Grow plan, which exceeds my current needs. Some customers complained from the mix and match bundle being unintuitive especially for mobile users, so they opt to contact us on WhatsApp as oppose to finishing the sale online. I have installed a session recording/replay app to watch online customer sessions, and found out that the app is indeed not intuitive and easily makes customers fall out of bundle. In a nutshell, the app is feature rich, technically strong with amazing support team, but not user friendly, and not for businesses that rely on small teams to manage even if your technically strong. I am about to uninstall it and move on to try some other bundle apps. In summary, the bundle presentation creates decision friction, lets customers bypass the bundle offer path (for mix and match), makes customer experience feels patched together rather than smooth upselling and intentional. I am disappointed, that i have to be back in the market looking for a more suitable app!!!!! I normally do not like to leave negative reviews, but i thought this might be helpful to give you store owners some light about what will happen behind the scenes and maybe encourage BOGOS to enhance their app by adding font, padding and other simple customizations out of the box, and revisit their mix and match bundles flow intuitivity. Good lucks!
Dear Hazem, Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed experience, we truly understand your frustration. Your feedback about customization limitations, turnaround time, bundle UX, and language redirection is very valuable. It helps us see where we need to do better - not just technically, but also in making the experience more intuitive and efficient for merchants with smaller teams. We will continue strengthening our team and improving the app so that we can better support cases like yours in the future. We’d really love to stay in touch and continue supporting you if you’re open to it. Please keep in touch with us by email - we’re always here to help and would be happy to welcome you back anytime. Sincerely, Zee - BOGOS Customer Support Lead

FYI - even though it says NOTHING about this in the app store, you actually have to pay $99/mo if you have Shopify plus - there is no "$29/mo" option. Super deceptive, I deleted the app immediately. Do better at vetting your Apps Shopify, we don't like feeling scammed.
Dear Silver Honey Products Admin, Thank you for your feedback, and I’m sorry for any confusion. For Shopify Plus stores, the $99/month plan is required, which includes additional features for higher-volume stores. I apologize for the lack of clarity in the app store listing, and we’ve worked on it to improve. I also followed up via email but haven’t received a response yet. If you have any questions or need assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I’d be happy to help. Sincerely, Zee - BOGOS Customer Support Lead

You can't even view it on draft before you publish. Didn't like the customer service either.

DO NOT USE THIS APP - avoid at all cost- read full review, it will save you thousands of dollars. I had an extremely disappointing experience with this app and its support team. After uninstalling the app, I discovered that a cloned product remained active on my store, allowing customers to purchase an offer that should have been automatically disabled upon app removal. This resulted in financial loss as some customers took advantage of that and orders hundreds of the product for FREE!( up to 3000 USD!) When I reached out for support, instead of acknowledging the issue, they repeatedly sent policy articles and denied responsibility. I followed all their instructions to DISABLE the offer before removing the app, and even redownloaded it to verify—confirming that the offer was indeed deactivated. Despite providing clear proof, including video evidence, their team refused to take accountability or offer a refund for the losses caused by their system. If you're looking for an app that values transparency, reliability, and customer support, I strongly recommend looking elsewhere. This company has shown a complete lack of authenticity and accountability, leaving merchants to deal with the consequences of their technical failures. Would give zero stars if I could. Avoid at all costs
Hi VivaRays, The situation occurred due to the failure to follow the removal instructions provided via multiple channels, including in-app, email, and live chat. BOGOS has consistently communicated the importance of disabling offers before uninstalling the app. Our app can not control orders or products once uninstalled, as we lose all permissions to affect store data. The financial loss was not caused by BOGOS but by failing to follow the removal process. We understand the frustration, but our policies and system behavior are transparent, and we provide ample guidance to prevent such issues.

This is pathetic app, the moment I dowloaded and saved it to my theme my website crashed. The checkout drawer stopped working . Don't go with their rating.. Pathetic app. Beware before installing.

Hi Hungry Koala team, I'm sorry for the unhappy experience you have encountered! We have checked carefully from our side and taken immediate action to discover the issue caused by 2 missing events in your theme rather than coming from our app. However, our technical team is willing to help you with the problem within the theme as much as we can. We have sent an email to your mailbox and are looking forward to your response! Regards, Richard.

App doesnt work well. If their support team fixes up one thing, there is always something else that breaks. I haven't been able to use this app for what it was meant to do even though I have been paying $39 every month for the past few months. Whenever I set up a new offer there is always an issue: fraudulent orders being created, quantities not adjusted correctly are some of the issues experienced. Their previous version worked better, this new version not designed or tested properly. I cannot be testing the app for them.
Hi Importatoy, I'm sorry for the unhappy experience that you encountered while using our app! Our support agent, David would like to arrange a call meeting to solve all the things you have encountered at once. However, we have not received your response on that yet. Our team is looking forward to your response soon! Just let me know your idea via our live chat system.

The App allow customers to place 0 value orders of our gifts for campaign. The loss we had suffered from this app far exceed the app cost. We do not recommend this app to anyone.
Hi EcoFlow, I'm really sorry for the inconvenience. Our customer success manager has sent you an email to resolve the problem and clarify the Fraud order protection feature that we have. Could you help us check your mailbox? Regards, The BOGOS Team.

Installed this app 7 hours ago. Have been in touch with the support ever since. I am facing three different issues. I have been assured that the issues are solved, but they simply are not. So I reached out to them again. They again assured me its fixed. But they are not. Struggling with this back and forth now for several hours. From an app that charges 50 euros per month i expect that it works straight away.
We apologize for not meeting your expectation during our session yesterday, William Walker. The request took us multiple attempts to complete as there was an issue with the Cart message not being rendered in sync with the script of your Cart drawer. Thanks to your kind cooperation in pointing out the problem, we were able to catch the bug and resolve it soon after. We have also included more information and details in our support email #138713 for your convenience. Could you help us check your mailbox? We really look forward to your response!

It worked well for about two weeks. After that, something broke and all of the items in the special offer, you could add to your cart for free. after escalating it to their support, they started working on it - next morning they said its fixed, after I checked it was not fixed. I escalated it again, AGAIN after 1 day, they said now its fixed, only to find out today its not fixed. they are not even checking after their fixes. yes. their support is friendly, and quick to reply, but this situation is making me move away
Hi Admin, I'm truly sorry for the unhappy experience you have encountered with our app. Our team has already resolved that and checked all other product pages and they are working properly now. If you need any further assistance, feel free to let us know and we would be more than willing to support you!

Great support. Setting up was easy. No bugs so far, we just set it up in a matter of minutes and lets see how it goes from here. UPDATE after 2 weeks: After using the APP for 2 weeks, we encountered the first serious bug, people were able to add the gifts to their cart without reaching any treshhold. After looking at negative reviews, I see the problem is fairly common. However, after reporting the BUG, they supposedly fixed it, but after checking it was not fixed. Then again I reported it, then again after 24hours I get notified that its fixed.... but again... just to find out, that its still not fixed. either they do not even check after they "fix" things.... or they dont know how to fix it. This is getting ridiculous. At this point, we lost trust in their devs and will most definitely move away to a different app.
Thank you very much 4Endurance Italia, We were thrilled to get such positive comments! Thanks to your efforts, we are now even more motivated to improve our services in the next days :D Please get in touch with us via Live Chat or email at [email protected] if you need assistance.

Stay away from this app. This app caused a major issue in our store. We used this app to create an offer - a small gift with purchase during a seasonal sale then had the offer scheduled to turn off after the sale was over. Months later, we figured out that people using Shop Pay got our high-priced items for free! Even though the offer was expired on the app. The products that people were getting were not free gifts, just regular SKUs. This error caused by Free Gift App was a loss of $2,500. This is not including all of the time that we are spending auditing the orders, being on the phone with support, and removing this code from our store. I reached out to their support team to request a reimbursement, and they completely denied my request even though they admitted it was their fault. (I wish I could attach screenshots of the conversation to this review as proof) Not only did the app zero out the cost of a regular SKU/variant that had nothing to do with a free gift but it also only works on the Online Store sales channel. Their support rep told me after the fact that they recommend posting products on the Online store only not other sales channels. Yet that is not listed anywhere on their website, instructions, or user guides. This is a problem because we have multiple sales channels like Shop, FB, IG stores etc... I bet that a lot of other stores do too. I can not believe that Shopify supports and recommends this app to store owners.
Dear Bebonia, We are truly sorry for this inconvenience! Our app prevents this case by setting all the gifts’ fulfillment services as manual. However, those orders were still auto fulfilled by a 3rd-party system of your store. This was beyond our reach so we are not able to affect that. In this case, our suggestion is to duplicate the product and use the duplicated one as gift only. So the gift won’t be available on other sale channels. We are truly sorry again for this unhappy experience! It does relate to the 3rd-party system so it is not possible for us to take full control of it. If you need any further assistance, just let me know and we will try our best to support you!

Just delete this app, useless. It will make your cart page very very slow. Even reduce the sales. After their coding team "Optimized" the speed of our cart page. All the products variant drop down does not work anymore. And I do not know what their coding guy did. The facebook pixel does not even work anymore. All my facebook ads saying there is no event been verified. All the tracking are also effected. We are spending thousands dollars on fb everyday. They literally caused us thousand dollars lost since yesterday they installed the code. Do not use this app unless you want to lose money. I have tried to contact their support many times. They have never get back to me.

This app requires the developers to add liquid code manually. I had 2 days of back and forth communication with Robert who said that even though they were on holiday, they would get it done, unfortunately he just ghosted me for 3 days, which caused us to scramble last minute to find another app at the last minute. I see others have had good service experiences but unfortunately our experience with this app was frustrating and disappointing. (I wouldn't have left a review, but Robert has sent 2 automated emails in the last few days to ask for one -so here it is).
Hi, I’m really sorry for your unhappy experience. We have been back from our Lunar New Year holiday and able to install the code for you quickly! We have been trying to contact you through ticket #93118. Could you kindly check your mailbox and let us know your thought? Thank you so much!

Horrible experience. They completely messed up my cart and when i add products to the cart, it doesn't update. Reached out to support and they said they backed up my theme, but they backed up my theme incorrectly. All the changes made were also in my "backup" theme. I had to manually revert all of the code they made and guess what, it all started to work again. I spent 3 hours trying to fix all of this and all customer support said during this time was that it wasn't their fault. Well I just fixed it by reverting all their code, so yes, it was their fault.
Hi there, I'm sorry for the unhappy experience you are having. We've been trying to connect you via the ticket number 90925. Could you please check it and let us know your thoughts? Thank you so much!

Worst experience ever. Installed the app but didn't work. Asked for help and there was no response until a review was given and they responded. Did some customisation work on my theme without backup and broke some codes, resulting in carousel, menu and cart issues which affected our store conversions for a week. These issues were not brought to light until Secomapp highlighted to me, claiming that they stumbled upon these issues but they're gonna fix it out of goodwill if the neg review is removed. Review was removed but errors are still not fixed. Secomapp suggest I get a dev to fix the errors. Out of desperation, we have no choice but to back date the theme that's two versions before since Secomapp didn't back up the last theme version. There's also no clear instructions on uninstallation despite asking for it on 12 Nov. Horrible experience. Use this app at your own risk.
10:08 PM Hi admin, We're sorry for the unhappy experience you have encountered. We had backed up your theme on our local before we installed the app on Nov 12. Could you please check the emails we sent so that we can investigate the root cause and fix the issue for you? Thanks,

Really not good. The app creates a free variant on our website that is visible on our website, we tried to hide it many times but there is nothing to do. People can hack it and add free products to their orders. We have contacted the app many times without any chance to make it work, we paid developers to work on it but there is nothing to do...
So sorry for your unhappy experience. But as our last email, you just required us to leave it for your developer to handle the app and then things just got out of our control. We have just sent a quick follow-up mail, please reply to it and we can have a chance to back you up carefully. Thanks!
