How it sells itself

Most Shopify themes come with just 15 design sections, and if you're not satisfied or need more, you're left with complex page builders or costly developers. Pagekit solves this problem by offering a library of user-friendly, customizable sections. You can effortlessly add these to your store's theme and tweak them in the theme editor. Create features, testimonials, FAQs, trust badges, and more with ease!

SectionGuard stores your custom sections in the app, not in your theme code. Because they live outside the theme, a theme update or switch does not break or delete them. Build each section with HTML, CSS and JavaScript or from a prebuilt template, preview it live, and insert dynamic product, collection and shop data with tokens. The app never needs write access to your theme files.

Key points
  • Browse & Add sections to any page, or any theme. Edit from Shopifys theme editor
  • Upgrade your existing theme with new theme sections. No need to start over.
  • Keep or even improve page-speed. Some apps loads slow, replace with a section.
  • Built considering marketing needs. Built for performance and speed.
  • Dynamic fields: product data, images and text pulled live from your store
  • Schedule sections, keep versions and restore with one click
  • Place like any section in the theme editor — zero theme code
  • 35 ready-made templates with live preview and pre-filled sample content
