MobiLoud vs Tapcart

A native iOS and Android app built on your Shopify store, with no rebuild.

Tapcart is a great app builder, but it requires you to design and manage your app separately from your website. MobiLoud builds on your existing site to deliver a fully customizable native app, with automatic sync, your entire web stack working in the app, and a team that handles everything.

  • Reuses your existing site, instead of replicating it
  • Every site update flows through to the app automatically
  • We handle the native side and partner to make the app successful

How MobiLoud compares to Tapcart

A side-by-side look at what you get with each platform.

Approach

Tapcart

Drag-and-drop app builder. You design and manage your app in their editor.

MobiLoud

Builds on your existing site. Automatic sync, and every tool, app, and customization on your site carries over.

Store rebuild

Tapcart

You recreate your store layout in their block editor, separate from your website.

MobiLoud

No rebuild needed. Your app is built on your existing codebase, with full flexibility to customize the experience.

Ongoing maintenance

Tapcart

Changes to your website and app are managed separately.

MobiLoud

Update your site once. Your app syncs automatically.

Integrations

Tapcart

80+ supported integrations via their platform.

MobiLoud

Unlimited. Every tool on your website works in your app automatically.

Custom features

Tapcart

Custom Blocks (React-based) for advanced customization. AI add-on available at $250/mo.

MobiLoud

All custom features from your website carry over with no extra development.

Service model

Tapcart

Primarily self-service. Dedicated account manager on Enterprise plan.

MobiLoud

Fully managed by our team. Dedicated success manager, Slack support, and weekly meetings included on the Enterprise plan.

Native iOS and Android apps, built on the same stack as your website

For brands that don't want to staff a mobile team or rebuild their store inside an app builder. Our platform layers native on top of your existing site. Our team builds, ships, and runs the app.

Everything on your site works in your app

Your checkout, your loyalty, your reviews, your customisations, your third-party tools, all in the app on day one because the app reads from your live site.

Your website synced to your mobile app

Update your site, your app updates

Your team manages your website as they always have. Every update flows to the app automatically. No second codebase to maintain.

MobiLoud customer success team

Your mobile team, on subscription

Dedicated success manager, weekly meetings during launch, native-side fixes with no hourly cap. The work is ours, the app is yours.

A custom app in the App Store and Google Play

A different category from app builders or custom dev

App builders force you to rebuild your store inside their platform. Custom native means a separate codebase and a 2-3 person mobile team to staff at $500K-$1M+/year. MobiLoud is a custom mobile app built on your existing site, with our team running the native side.

Full Tech Stack Compatibility

Your entire tech stack, already compatible

Because your app is powered by your live website, every third-party tool and custom integration you already use works automatically. No rebuilding, no compatibility issues.

App builders like Tapcart require you to design and manage your app in a separate editor, apart from your website. MobiLoud takes a different approach: we build on your existing site, so every integration, customization, and feature you already have works in the app automatically. You can also customize the app experience independently, with app-specific pages, layouts, and features, all built on the same codebase.

Tapcart charges a 1.75-2.5% success fee on in-app sales on top of their monthly subscription. As your app revenue grows, that fee compounds. MobiLoud's subscription does not take a percentage of your app sales. You're paying for a team that builds, launches, and maintains your app, not a platform you manage yourself. See our pricing page for current plan structure.

No. MobiLoud builds on your existing site, so there's nothing to recreate. All your custom code, integrations, and design carry over automatically. You can also add app-specific customizations, like a dedicated app homepage or simplified navigation, using standard web development. Unlike Tapcart, where you recreate your store in their editor.

It's a simple process. We build your new app from your existing website, no content migration, no data transfer, no rebuilding. The new app is submitted as an update to your existing App Store and Google Play listings, so you keep your reviews and download history. Your current app stays live until the new one is approved. The whole process takes 6-8 weeks.

6-8 weeks from sign-up to launch. Our team handles everything: app development, custom graphics, app store submissions, and approval monitoring. You don't need to do any technical work.

Yes. Because your app is powered by your live website, every tool and integration you already use works automatically. There's no compatibility list to check and no integrations to configure separately.

On the Enterprise plan, you get a dedicated Customer Success Manager, Slack and phone support, weekly meetings during launch, and ongoing strategy guidance. We monitor performance, handle all platform and OS updates, and help you optimize push notifications and engagement flows.

You can cancel anytime with 30 days written notice if you're not on a contract. If your app is rejected by Apple or Google due to a MobiLoud platform-specific issue, we will refund subscription fees paid. Setup fees are non-refundable.
