How this leaderboard works
Every position is an auction: Shopify apps bid real money, starting at 5 €, in the category of their choice — and the highest bid takes its first place. No jury, no sponsored reviews. Clicks sent to each site are counted and public. The full rules.
How to choose your Shopify apps
Pick a Shopify app on four criteria: recent App Store reviews (the trend matters more than the overall rating), its impact on theme speed, support quality — test it during the free trial — and how cleanly it uninstalls, since some apps leave residual code in the theme. A few well-chosen apps always beat a pile of them.
On this leaderboard, the app makers themselves bid for visibility. Every profile links straight to the app, with public numbers: the bid, the clicks sent, the cost per click. One simple signal — who believes in their app enough to pay for its spot?
Frequently asked questions
How is this Shopify apps ranking built?
By auction: every maker bids real money, starting at 5 €, and the highest total bid takes first place. The leaderboard moves the second someone bids more — no app is untouchable.
Can any Shopify app be listed?
Yes: public App Store apps or private apps, in any language — all it takes is a handle, a link and a bid from 5 €. The profile visual is fetched automatically from the App Store listing.
How do I move my app up the ranking?
By bidding more: every payment adds to your current bid, and the highest total bid takes #1. Likes and ⚔️ duels add visibility without changing the rank.
Are there good free Shopify apps?
Yes: many serious apps (reviews, SEO, upsell…) have a free plan that's plenty to start with. Watch the plan limits — order, email or page quotas — and the price of the next tier: that's what you'll pay if things work out. The leaderboard mixes free and paid apps; the free trial is still the best judge.
