The shop app send harrasing emnails to my customers asking for reviews and this cannot be stopped. This app will disturb and harrass your customers for a long time asking repeatedly for reviews. This harrases and chases your customers away. Ive just had a complaint about this!

Hi there, thanks for taking the time to review our sales channel. I understand you have concerns about the review requests sent to your customers. In order to turn off the product review requests, you would currently need to opt out of the Shopping feature of the Shop sales channel. You can read more about the feature here - https://bit.ly/3UIa3Ko I'll certainly pass on your feedback to our developers in the meantime. If you'd like us to have a closer look at your query and your account in particular, please don't hesitate to reach out to us by starting a support request via this link so that we can authenticate you on the account: https://bit.ly/3NehLrk.

Shopify is using their control over thousands of stores to hijack customers and funnel them through shopify's ecosystem. If a customer is signed into "shopify", even if they don't have the shop app on their phone, Shopify bypasses the checkout options provided by you, the merchant and funnels your customers into their own ecosystem and payment offerings. It's just a matter of time before a class action lawsuit is served to Shopify.

Hi there, thanks for taking the time to review the Shop sales channel. I understand you're dissatisfied about your experience with our Shop sales channel. The Shop sales channel wouldn't be involved in the checkout experience as you describe it, that would more so relate to Shop Pay and whether the Buyer has an existing account. If they do, they are indeed presented with that method of checkout, but the other methods of checkout should still be available to the Buyer. If you want someone to take a closer look at your concerns relating to your checkout, and to see if there's a way to rectify the matter, please contact Shopify support directly after logging in via this link on the Shopify Help center - https://bit.ly/3hGDWwb so that the system can authenticate you and have someone investigate this for you right away. Best wishes, Brian, Shop Support

Please help me understand this. I thought that this was a way to bring new customers into the brand. But now I'm seeing that customers I paid for through Facebook ads have placed their first order through my site -- and a second order through Shop. How was Shop contacting my customer? How would this happen? Is Shop hijacking my customers and encouraging them to bypass my site entirely?

Hi there, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. The Shop app does aim to increase your brand's customer base through our curated collections and transparency with product reviews. It's also our objective to help build your existing customer relationships by allowing customers to track their orders and contact you easily if needed. There are emails sent to the customer from us so they are familiar with the app they have just used as well as for compliance. However, these emails would not be triggered by an order from Facebook. They may have already been using our Shop app for tracking. If that's the case, they may have re-visited your Shop store profile after their Facebook order synced to the app for tracking, and it encouraged another purchase. Any email sent is in place to help support your customers and encourage sales through your store, and its worth is continuously reviewed. If you feel an email has disrupted your orders in any way then please reach out to us with the email's details by starting a support ticket here: https://bit.ly/3NehLrk Thanks, Noreena Shop Support

Keeps saying my store is ineligible but was never told why. Something about a product not on my site. I've been on Shopify for a long time and status still hasn't changed. Apparently garbage.

I'm honestly surprised to see the negative reviews. It took me about ~20 minutes to set everything up (It was mainly tedious work), I created my collections and then published them to the Shop Channel. This app has brought me Many new customers. The only bad thing about this app is that you can only add 10 Collections to your shop and there is no way to increase this limit (There might be a way, but I just don't know).

Can't add products. None of my products come up when I try to search for them to add them. I've enabled all my products for the Shop sales channel, but they still aren't available to add.

The Shop Channel has been spamming your customers for review requests and you didn't even realize it! That's right. Even customers who don't purchase from this channel are sent a request to review IN ADDITION to any review automation tools you are using. This is probably resulting in annoyance for your customers and decreasing the effectiveness of your other review-gathering campaigns. Shopify doesn't let you opt-out of this Shop Channel review automation, so your only choice is to delete the app if you don't want to spam your customers.

We got a Chargeback by mistake, even the customer agreed. We documented everything, but still we have no idea how to reactivate Shops - and absolutely no help to do so.

My first bad review I've ever written. Had a DMCA many years ago which was resolved immediately.. and this outright banned our brand from using this core feature under "AUP"; quite shocking really with no leeway or grace period. Notably, we have probably one of the lowest complaint rates in our industry and run a squeaky clean account. I downgraded from our Shopify Plus plan over this, while being a loyal customer since 2015. Looking at alternative platforms instead. In the meantime, we have applied to Sezzle which seem much friendlier and are delighted to work with us. Shame.

I used this app for a while and then my account got deactivated as I had an issue with a product. I removed the product and followed all the instructions they told me. I tried tirelessly to get hold of someone to get me back on Shop and activate my account again. They ignored all emails and months have passed and my account is still inactive. Such a shame, as I actually liked the app. But honestly, if the customer service is this bad, its better to not continue with it.

I needed this app to help conduct business, after many frustrating weeks of trying to talk to many different representatives, my account is still suspended. I have gotten nowhere with customer support. this is not seamless, I do not recommend this app, you will lose business with how much time you spend on the phone trying to get support for this app.

So I am about to recieve £67,000 from shopify capital due to my 5 year history with Stripe....I stupidly STILL have to wait 90 days to use "Shop" as I've only just switched from Stripe to Shopify Payments (and passed all verification asked of me) to save myself 0.6% per transaction. Doesn't make sense at all, does one department from Shopify not speak to another no? I pay tri-annually for Shopify at a cost of around $7884 to save money in the long run, I am seriously debating doing this again or whether just pay monthly or even to downgrade my subscription from Advanced Shopify to Shopify. So Stripe say im good to go, Shopify does, Shopify payments does, but shop says I have to wait 90 days? There is a reason why you have a 2.8 star rating....upto you to sort it out.

This is a terrible channel with an absolutely RIDICULOUS metric they use to determine your stores' "value". Example: someone steals a credit card and places an order on your site, **something you have absolutely NO CONTROL over**, then a month later the card owner disputes the charge, you pay 10% charge back fee, lose the product, and to add insult to injury, The ridiculous Channel decide to suspend you Shop account because you have a 1% chargeback rate. I would be embarrassed to represent such a practice.

I set up app but it's not loading or letting me manage my products in the sales channel. "No products found" in All/approved/not approved. It says in Products - "You don’t have any products yet." but when I hit "manage products" It's says all have been enabled. It's been a couple of hours so surely this should populate by now. Also lastly, there is no easy help option to contact the app for how to rectify.

Unfortunately, the Shop app/channel does not deal with shipping options properly. We offer a local pickup option. For some reason, despite customers in our pickup region selecting physical shipping, the Shop app is defaulting to local pickup causing customer service escalations and lost sales (when we have to follow up to cover shipping costs if under free shipping). I feel that your own channel on your own platform shouldn't be the one causing problems for merchants and consumers.

Hi there, Thanks for taking the time to review the Shop sales channel. It's not ideal for you, but currently automobile parts are actually one of the prohibited product types, as outlined here - https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/online-sales-channels/shop/eligibility#prohibited-product-types In the meantime, your customers will continue to be able to take advantage of order tracking, viewing recent orders and seeing the available contact information for your business.
