Beat the supermarket to the next bag
When your customers run low on food or litter, your app is on their home screen and they're signed in, so ordering from you is quicker than a supermarket run or a marketplace search.
Custom mobile apps for online pet stores
MobiLoud builds native iOS and Android apps on your live store, with everything from your site working in your app from day one.
2,000+ apps published since 2013
Your full site, as an app
Most no-code app builders can't do what your store does. They rebuild your shop from their own blocks and templates, so all the unique features on your site don't work in the app.
MobiLoud builds your app on your live store instead, so everything works in the app from the start, from subscriptions and delivery options to loyalty points.
Autoship from Recharge, Ordergroove or your own system, with skips, swaps and date changes in the app.
Profiles for each pet, with breed, age and diet, if your site stores them.
Prescription food and pet pharmacy orders, with the approval steps set up on your store.
Collections for dogs, cats, birds and small pets, by life stage and diet, as you've set them up.
Points from LoyaltyLion, Smile.io or your own program, collected on every order in the app.
Next-day and local delivery, store pickup and free-delivery thresholds, as they work at your checkout.
Reviews and photos from Yotpo, Trustpilot or Judge.me, pets included.
Buy-more-save deals, bulk sizes and bundles for multi-pet homes, set up once in your store.

Engagement Time
"I've always wanted an app, but just never found a solution that was either credible enough that we wanted to put our name to it, or cost-effective. For us, we're big enough that we need this app to work, but we also can't afford to build a custom app."
MobiLoud vs the alternatives
Traditional app builders build from templates, giving you a watered-down copy of your store. MobiLoud lets you launch a custom app, without the cost and complexity of a full custom build.

How an app keeps pet parents close
Your app puts your store a tap away when the food runs low, flea season starts or a new puppy comes home. And push lets you match every message to your customers' pets.
When your customers run low on food or litter, your app is on their home screen and they're signed in, so ordering from you is quicker than a supermarket run or a marketplace search.
A dog, two cats and a rabbit make a long shopping list. Whatever your site offers multi-pet homes, from shop-by-pet collections to bundles and multi-buy deals, works in the app too, so the whole list goes in one order.
Flea and tick season, winter coats, holiday treats and adoption days all have their moment. Push puts the right products in front of the right pet owners when it arrives.
Tag customers by species, breed or diet, and you can send cat owners cat offers and new puppy owners their first essentials. Birthday treats and loyalty points keep the relationship going between orders.
The operating model
New products, prices and promotions go live on your site, and the app picks them up straight away. Your team works with the tools you know, and we take care of the native side.

Getting live
We build the app, test it and take it through both store reviews. You share brand assets, check the preview and give the go-ahead.
Week 1
A first call covers your store, your autoship and loyalty setup and the launch plan. Then you give us access to your store and developer accounts.
Weeks 1 to 2
Working from your live store, we add tab menus, navigation and push, and check autoship, pet profiles and checkout in the app. A preview reaches your phone in week two.
Weeks 1-2
Design is matched to your brand, push is connected to your account and analytics go to GA4 and Firebase. Then we test on iPhone and Android before your sign-off.
Weeks 2 to 4
We submit both apps from your developer accounts and see them through review, which usually takes one to two weeks. Then the launch plan goes live.
We can deliver everything your legal, security and finance teams will ask for:
Have any more questions we didn't answer? Book a 30-minute call or send us a message to clear it all up.
Book a callYes. Autoship and subscriptions from Recharge, Ordergroove or your own system are managed through your site, so customers can skip, swap or reschedule a delivery in the app with the same account.
Yes. Your approval steps, vet checks and prescription orders are part of your site, so they work in the app the way they work on the web.
Yes. Tag each customer in OneSignal with their pet's species, breed or diet using MobiLoud's JavaScript API, then send push to just the dog owners, the cat owners or anyone on a prescription diet.
Your app doesn't need to win over every shopper. It needs to make buying from you as easy as buying from them, for the customers who already prefer your store. In your app they stay signed in, with your range, your autoship and the loyalty points they've earned a tap away, and no other store's products next to yours. Push then brings them back with your own offers, instead of waiting for them to search.
Yes. Trade accounts, trade pricing and quick reorder pages on your site work in the app too.
Yes. We build your new app on your live store and publish it under your own developer accounts, so your existing listing, its reviews and its users can carry over, and customers update to the new app instead of downloading a second one.
To announce seasonal essentials like flea and tick treatments, send offers to just the dog or cat owners, run stock-up deals on food and litter, and share new products and loyalty rewards. Every message can include a product image and open straight to the right page. Push is sent from your own OneSignal account, or from Klaviyo on the Enterprise plan.
Yes. It's a native iOS and Android app in the App Store and Google Play, published under your own developer accounts. It's built on your live site and adds a native layer: tab bar and navigation, push notifications, persistent login, social sign-in and deep links. MobiLoud has published more than 2,000 apps since 2013.
Yes, for customers with your app installed. Universal links on iOS and app links on Android open the right product or category in the app from an email or a text, and everyone else sees your mobile site. We give your web team two small setup files to add to your site.
MobiLoud works with Shopify and Shopify Plus, Magento and Adobe Commerce, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, Shopware, PrestaShop, Oracle NetSuite and custom platforms. PetShop.co.uk's app is built on NetSuite.
Most stores are live in both app stores 2 to 4 weeks after kickoff: setup in week one, build and testing in weeks one and two, followed by app store submission and review.
We help you plan the launch: an install banner on your mobile site, an email to your customer list, social posts and a QR code on package inserts. An app-only offer, like extra loyalty points on the first app order, gives customers a reason to install.
The Business plan is $1,499 a month, or $1,274 a month billed annually, plus a one-time app development and submission fee, with up to 10,000 monthly active users included. Enterprise is custom-priced. Neither plan takes a share of revenue, so what you pay does not change with what the app sells.
You do. The app lives in your own Apple Developer and Google Play Console accounts, with its listings, ratings, installs, analytics and customer data. MobiLoud keeps the IP in the platform that builds the app, and if you ever move on, your listings and users stay with you.
