I got scammed by a customer who raised a chargeback against his purchase straight after the product was received. I contested the chargeback, but unfortunately, the customer's bank sided with their customer. Shop disabled my store from being seen by customers for 1x raised chargeback in 6 years. This app surely has high expectations from its customers when the app lacks customisation and functionality. Goodbye SHOP! Update: I was going to deactivate so I could delete the channel but app wouldn't even let me click on the deactivate button.
Hi there, thanks for taking the time to review our sales channel. I understand you've some frustrations about your account having issues relating to the eligibility. In order to avail of features such as Shopping and Discovery in the app, we ask merchants to meet certain eligibility requirements. You will still be able to install and use the sales channel, and your customers can continue to track their orders, view recent orders and see the available contact information for your business. Chargeback rate under 1% is one of the requirements as listed here https://bit.ly/3A4GLgJ . The bank returns their decision in relation to chargebacks, and that is what we use towards the rate. We don't have any input in that decision. If you'd like us to investigate if there was an error in relation to your chargeback rate, or advice on it, 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. If you wish to discuss the nature of chargebacks in general, and try and get some advice on how best to avoid them, please reach out to Shopify support here - https://bit.ly/3EgQp0N Best wishes, Brian, Shop Support
This could be the best app these legends have made, though still early days. Let's see if it works overtime, and without me having to sell my soul to the data gods.
Super annoying that the Schedule Availability feature is not active on this Shopify developed app. All the other sales channels base availability on the inventory of the shop itself. But this app ignores the "Scheduled Availability" and ignores the stores inventory. Kinda Dumb!
Hi there, thanks for taking the time to review our sales channel. I understand you have some frustrations about the current functionality of the Shop sales channel. Future publishing - https://bit.ly/3ntkVzU, or scheduled availability is currently only available on the Online Store. It doesn't apply to any other sales channels yet, including the Shop sales channel. We will certainly pass your feedback to our developers for consideration. In the meantime, if you've any other concerns relating to the Shop sales channel, 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.

I did not install this App, and quite frankly, I'm absolutely not happy that Shopify thinks it can just push my store's contents through a marketplace of their choosing.
Hi there, thanks for taking the time to review our sales channel. I understand you've some concerns about the sales channel suddenly appearing in your admin and your products appearing within the Shop app. Just to confirm, the Shop app is not a marketplace. You can find more specifics in Shopify's Terms of Service, section 9.6.7 - https://bit.ly/40LPejx relating to how this works. As mentioned here - https://bit.ly/42RJl6k , if your store meets the eligibility requirements outlined in the Shop Merchant Guidelines, then your store and products will automatically be listed in the Shop app and the Shop sales channel will appear in your Shopify admin. The reason for the addition of the sales channel is to give you the power to control how your store appears within the app, or to remove your store from the app if you don't wish to feature in it. You should also have received an email notification of this change in the past week or two. If you wish, you can opt out of Sell with Shop by following this guide - https://bit.ly/40qHDqX . You can also opt out of Shop Search by referring to this guide - https://bit.ly/3Zu6fhc . If you have any other questions or concerns relating to this, 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.

I did not install this app. I saw it listed and wondered what the heck is Shop!? Why is this here when I did not install it?!!!

Customers being allowed to make purchases when products are out of stock and Shopify support are not willing to take any responsibility for it. It's a shame because usually Shopify do these things well but clearly this is not the case here. They are trying to create a marketplace without taking any responsibility for things that don't work within it. I have removed all my products from it and deleted the sales channel. I would recommend that you do the same.
Hi there, thanks for taking the time to review our sales channel. I understand you've experienced some frustrations in relation to an item selling when it was out of stock. The Shop app doesn't sell items if they are out of stock. It would follow the availability set by your Online Store's inventory.

This app lacks alot of features. You don't get notified when customers review their products and have no control over that. Your store can be disabled WAY too quickly with no control over that as well. My store had one product that promoted the entire store to be disabled with no way to fix it even though I was bringing in thousands of dollars. Really unhappy customer here.

I AM REMOVING FROM MY STORE NOW! PLAYING AROUND WITH IT AND IT REFUSES MY PAY IN 4 PAYMENTS. THIS APP ALSO TRACKS EVERY ORDER I HAVE COMING TO MY HOUSE FROM OTHER COMPANIES IN WHICH I DO NOT USE SHOP PAY. KIND OF CREEPY AND IT'S MESSING UP MY ENTIRE CHECK OUT PROCESS. I AM LEARNING THAT EVERY APP FROM SHOPIFY IS A JOKE!!!!! AND BLOCKS YOUR ACCOUNTS! NEVER USE THE INSTAGRAM & FACEBOOK APP THEY OFFER OR MAIL!

The Shop app has some good aspects to it, but in our case its absolutely useless as Shopify has decided to not allow shops who at any point has received IP claims to join. I understand the general idea of this and the intention to keep copies out from Shop, but as a side effect it also shuts out sellers who have been targeted by claims without legal basis like in our case. This policy also apparently does not have an expiry date, so it's enough you have one claim, no matter how old it is. By doing this Shopify basically takes the side of the claimant, no matter how unfounded and unjust the claim in itself would be. Like always the side effect with blanket policies like this one is that there will be a lot of non-deserving merchants affected by this, and there is nothing you as a seller can do about it. The only way to solve this would be to take the issue to actual court, which obviously is beyond the possibilities for many small merchants around the world like ourselves. I find this policy and it's enforcement so unjust that it would be impossible to rate this app with more stars. What makes this policy even more absurd is that it only applies to the actual shop which received the claim and not the company. So we have two instalments of our shop for different markets, and one can join Shop while the other can not. That means that if you really would be a business operating in bad faith you can simply just set up a new shop to circumvent this if needed be. The reason I give this channel two stars instead of one is that it actually offers some ok features and works fairly smooth - if you are accepted that is. You can of course use some of it's features even if you are not eligible to sell on Shop, but it's still a bit of a slap in the face for any merchant who actually would like to list their products but are not able to due to blanket policies like this which is enforced without exceptions. --------------- EDIT: 29.3. Shopify posted their standard answer to this, which helps nothing. We have discussed this issue extensively with both Shopify Shop support and legal, and like mentioned above the only solution would be to take this case to US court and have the claim removed that way. Shopify Shop support agrees that this is an unfair situation, but can do nothing except ask you to contact legal - and legal only replies that they do not offer legal advice. The optimal solution to this would be to offer merchants who feel unjustly treated some kind of a channel to dispute the claim within Shopify (other than going to court), and that way at least get access to the full Shop experience on a case-by-case basis.
Hi there, thanks for taking the time to review our sales channel. I understand you had some trouble with eligibility for our Shop sales channel. If you were deemed ineligible for certain features, you should still be able to install the channel. 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. If you want us to take a closer look at your ineligibility circumstances, and to see if there's a way to rectify the matter, please contact us directly after logging in via the following link so that we can authenticate you on the account: https://bit.ly/3NehLrk. Violations of Shopify's Acceptable Usage Policy would be one of the reasons listed here - as listed here https://bit.ly/3A4GLgJ . In relation to the actual claim, we just see the end result. Matters like that are handled by our Legal team, and we have no insights or input into them for security and privacy reasons. You should have been emailed in relation to the policy issue by the Legal team. If not, we can certainly request they reach out to you again if you get in touch with us via https://bit.ly/3NehLrk Either way, please do get in touch as we'd certainly like to take a closer look at your issue to see if there's any way it can be resolved.

How could you NOT use this useful app? This is yet another example of the innovative multi-channel growth, smooth user experience, and responsive support Shopify includes on its platform. Nice work.
It's fast to sync which is awesome but the price will use "compare at price" aka retail pricing instead of your actual price... this basically defeats any value from this connector if you're using Compare At Price.

We can't use Shop, but it now prints on all our shipping labels. Another boutique claimed we stole their photo, even though it was a vendor provided photo. We aren't allowed to appeal, but got dinged with copyright infringement in a he said she said. Stop advertising your services to my customers, and then not allow me to participate in said services. Especially since you never even heard our side or looked at our proof we had rights to use it too.

So many reasons why we dont like this app; we use a fulfilment warehouse and some items are fragile and need specific carriers which take longer to plan for a successful unbroken delivery, The Shop App dominates everything you have set up for your store and can ruin it overnight. Lead times are overruled; reviews are overruled when we already have a review site. Our customers are sent automation we have not authorised which must be a data breach. Last but not least Shop Pay purple dominates our website and puts itself as the first Express pay option long before any other payment method is shown. We have tried to speak to Shopify to get some of the functions turned off, it’s taken over an hour on the phone to Shopify and they haven't got a clue what Shop Pay is.

Doesn't allow alcohol sale. Useless for merchants even though shopify allows alcohol on website. How is this ok to you?

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.

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.

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.
Hi there, thanks for taking the time to review our sales channel. I understand you have concerns about your account having unknown issues relating to the eligibility. In order to avail of features such as Shopping and Discovery in the app, we ask merchants to meet certain eligibility requirements, and those are listed here - https://bit.ly/3A4GLgJ.

You will still be able to install and use the sales channel, and your customers can continue to track their orders, view recent orders and see the available contact information for your business.

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).
