How it works

A custom native app, powered by your Shopify Plus store

MobiLoud transforms your Shopify Plus store into custom iOS and Android apps. The app delivers a unique, truly native experience, customized for app users, pulling from the same underlying code as your site.

  1. 1

    Your store is square one

    Our team builds your app from the Shopify Plus store you already run, so your checkout, Functions, integrations and all other features automatically work in the app.

  2. 2

    We design a custom app

    MobiLoud designs your app around your brand, with native navigation, custom home and collection screens, app-only pages, push notifications and social sign-in.

  3. 3

    We publish it and keep it running

    We handle App Store and Google Play submission, then every update after launch. Your team keeps managing products, content and campaigns from your Shopify admin.

Designed like a flagship app, screen by screen

Your existing store powers a truly custom app. Our team builds custom native screens and app features, and your app can be as close to your site or as different as you want.

Custom native design

Your app gets native navigation and gestures, with every key screen designed around your brand.

  • Native tab bar and navigation
  • Custom home and collection screens
  • Product and cart screens built for the app
  • App-only pages and experiences
  • Branded welcome screens

Custom app features

Your app comes with the features that you expect from a native app, built and scoped to your needs.

  • Push notifications via OneSignal, or Klaviyo (on Enterprise)
  • Google, Apple and Facebook sign‑in
  • Persistent login
  • Deep links into any URL
  • Smart app banners
  • App analytics and ad campaign attribution
  • Custom native features and SDKs, scoped with your team

Your Shopify Plus stack, powering a custom app

Most app builders rebuild your store inside their platform, and the features that set your store apart get left behind. MobiLoud is different. We build on top of your existing store, so everything from your site seamlessly carries over to your mobile app.

Checkout Extensibility

Your branded checkout, extensions, payment methods, tax setup and subscription flows power checkout in the app, with nothing rebuilt.

Shopify Functions

Discounts, shipping rules, payment customizations and cart transforms apply in the app from the same code, with nothing to re-implement.

B2B on Plus

Company accounts, catalogs, price lists and payment terms come with your app, so wholesale buyers see their own pricing in it.

Expansion stores and Markets

Multiple storefronts, currencies and languages in one app, each with its own menu, push notifications and onboarding.

Launchpad and Flow

Scheduled drops and automations reach the app automatically, because they run on your store. Nothing to duplicate, and nothing to time twice.

Hydrogen and headless

A headless Plus build works too. Your app is powered by your web front end, whatever it is built on, and designed around your brand.

Theme code and metafields

Liquid, sections and metafield-driven layouts power your app, so every merchandising rule you set reaches it without a second CMS.

Every app on your stack

Your Shopify Plus apps, third-party integrations and custom features come with your app, so there is no second integration to build or maintain.

Works with tools like:

Klaviyo Yotpo Okendo ReCharge Loop Returns Gorgias Rebuy Smile.io

...And every other app on your storefront. See all integrations

The operating model

Your team keeps working exactly as they do now

The real cost of a mobile app isn't the build: it's the operational tax of having to manage a separate platform. MobiLoud removes all of that. Your team manages the app through your existing workflow, and we take care of the native side.

Your team

Continues working as you do today

  • Merchandising and theme releases, on the cadence you already run
  • Liquid, sections, metafields and your own front-end work
  • Every Shopify app you have installed, administered where it is now
  • App-only collections and promotions, built on your own stack

Our team

Handles the native updates and technical maintenance

  • The native iOS and Android build, QA and configuration
  • Submission and approval under your Apple and Google accounts
  • Every OS release, SDK deprecation and store-policy cycle
  • Certificate renewals and Checkout Extensibility updates
  • Push set up inside your own Klaviyo or OneSignal account
  • Launch playbook, install growth and, on Enterprise, monthly performance reviews

No second CMS. No second release cycle. No new headcount.

Push notifications

Get a direct line to your best customers

An app unlocks a channel your website cannot. Push notifications land on the lock screen in seconds, with no promotions tab, no spam filter and no ad auction to win.

Run push notifications for promotions, new product drops and launches, back-in-stock alerts, abandoned carts, loyalty reminders and more, bringing your highest-intent customers back again and again.

The proof

Real brands get meaningful results from their mobile apps

"We didn't have to build our app from scratch. Everything syncs seamlessly with Shopify, including real-time inventory updates and push notifications. With 85% of our audience on mobile, launching an app has drastically improved conversion rates and reduced the need for costly remarketing."
Ahmed Ayman eCommerce Director, Pharmazone
"MobiLoud keeps this whole thing simple and streamlined. No more juggling two different platforms, no more wasted time on maintenance. We can just focus on marketing and growing the business."
Eric Lowe Director of eCommerce, XCVI Fashion

Getting live

Launch in 2 to 4 weeks, with minimal lift from your team

We do the work. You bring the assets, and input where it's needed.

  1. Week 1

    Kickoff

    Onboarding call to align on configuration and launch plan, plus access to your store and developer accounts. Your security review starts in parallel if you need one.

  2. Weeks 1 to 2

    Build and integrate

    We build your app from your live storefront and design its navigation, home and collection screens. Every integration on your site comes with it, and you have a working test build by week two.

  3. Weeks 1 to 2

    Customize and test

    Design and navigation tuned to your brand, push wired into your Klaviyo or OneSignal account, analytics into GA4 and Firebase. QA across iOS and Android, then final approval from you.

  4. Weeks 2 to 4

    Launch

    Submitted to the App Store and Google Play. We manage both store reviews, typically one to two weeks, then the launch playbook goes live.

  • Data Processing Agreement and GDPR documentation
  • Insurance certificates on request
  • SLA and 24/7 support on Enterprise
  • Custom contracts, redlines and payment terms
  • Invoice or bank transfer, not card-only
  • Customer data stays in Shopify, not on our servers

We run expansion stores across several regions. Is that one app or several?

Your expansion stores can run in one app, or in several if you prefer. Multi-configuration puts each region, language or storefront into a single app with its own menu, push notifications, onboarding and language selector. Customers pick their region once and the app remembers. Separate apps per market are also possible where the brands are genuinely distinct.

Does B2B on Plus work inside the app?

B2B on Plus works inside the app. Company accounts, catalogs, price lists, payment terms and net ordering all come with it, because your app is powered by the same storefront that serves those buyers on the web. A logged-in B2B buyer sees their own pricing in the app.

We are headless on Hydrogen. Does that change anything?

Being headless on Hydrogen does not change anything. Your app is powered by your front end, whatever it is built on. Hydrogen on Oxygen, a custom Next.js front end, or standard Liquid all work the same way. It also means a replatform on the web side does not force an app rebuild or a resubmission.

What happens to our checkout customizations?

Your checkout customizations stay in place. Checkout Extensibility apps, custom branding, payment methods, tax configuration, Shopify Functions on discounts and shipping, and subscription flows all work in the app, because it is powered by your real checkout rather than a rebuilt copy of it.

Do you take a percentage of in-app revenue?

MobiLoud does not take a percentage of in-app revenue. Pricing is a flat monthly subscription with no revenue share and no per-transaction fee. What you pay does not move with what the app sells.

Who owns the app and the store listings?

Your business owns the app and the store listings. Apps are submitted under your own Apple Developer and Google Play Console accounts, so the listings, ratings, install base, analytics and customer data are yours. MobiLoud keeps the IP in the platform and the code that builds the app. If you ever move on, the listings and the users stay with you.

What does our dev team have to do after launch?

After launch, your dev team keeps shipping to the web store the way they do now. There is no app QA gate on your releases and no second codebase to maintain. When something needs to look or behave differently in the app, our JavaScript library tells your code whether a page is loading in the app, so your team writes it in the stack they already use.

We already have an app with another builder. Can we migrate?

You can migrate from another app builder, and it is common. The new app ships as an update to your existing listing, so its ratings and its install base can carry over rather than starting from zero. We plan the cutover so your users update into the new app instead of being asked to download a second one.

How does this get through our security and legal review?

MobiLoud gets through security and legal reviews routinely. A Data Processing Agreement, GDPR compliance documentation and insurance certificates are available on request, and we work through legal redlines. Customer data stays in Shopify and is not copied onto MobiLoud servers, because your app is powered by your storefront rather than a replica of it.
