How it sells itself

Closeby makes it easy to create a store locator that perfectly matches your brand. It's how online customers become in-store sales for Shopify businesses with physical locations.

Customers often leave when they can't tell whether a product is available nearby. Localify solves this by displaying real-time inventory for every location directly on the product page, helping shoppers make faster decisions. No coding is required. Simply enable the app block from Shopify and show store availability in minutes.

Key points
  • Easy to set up: Add a beautiful locator to your store as a page or section.
  • Extensive customizations: Select from design options to best express your brand.
  • Beautiful UX: Mobile-friendly, feature-rich and easy to use for customers.
  • Integrated: Sync with Google Sheets and Google Analytics for teams
  • Real-time inventory by location on every product page
  • Lightweight widget that adapts automatically to any Shopify theme
  • Unlimited locations with no limits on stores or products
  • No-code setup directly from your Shopify admin

Store counts come from Shoplist’s crawl of Shopify storefronts, which detects the apps each store runs; they are as of Oct 13, 2026. Reviews, ratings, plans, features and integrations come from each app’s Shopify App Store listing. 28-day figures are labeled when estimated, and a figure that is missing or estimated never decides who leads.
