By the Poinz team · prices checked October 28, 2026 · Poinz is our app.
Most Shopify loyalty apps have a free plan, but the order limits and the price of the first paid plan differ a lot. This page puts them side by side.
How we compared
We read each app's pricing on its Shopify App Store listing on the date above. The table is sorted by how many orders one dollar buys on the first paid plan, highest first: more orders per dollar means a cheaper plan for the same store. Ties are sorted by the free plan's monthly order limit. We did not rate the apps.
