Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureHere's how it works: 1. When users first visit your store, a welcome bar displays your current promotion, like "buy 2, get 1 free," "spend $100 to get a free gift," or "spend $100 for free shipping." 2. As they add items to their cart, the bar updates, showing what else is needed to qualify for the reward. 3. When they reach the requirement, a final message confirms they qualify for the bonus or free shipping.
StackBar adds a free shipping progress bar and an announcement bar to your store. The free shipping bar shows shoppers how close they are to free shipping and updates live as the cart changes, with automatic currency conversion. The announcement bar rotates up to 5 scheduled messages with links. A true Online Store 2.0 app embed: no permissions, no customer data, under 8KB JS, no external requests.
