love this app - opened up a whole new avenue of business for us! We needed a place to sell products we couldn't post publicly due to medical restrictions

Great for two reasons:
1) The app works and is very easy to implement. Does exactly what is needed.
2) The "pay what feels good" pricing method is great and they are actually open to reasonable pricing suggestions. We suggested another price, still reasonable, with our explanation why we felt it was fair. Very quickly, we could come to an agreement about a monthly price that suits both sides.

Would recommend this app. Great app, great support.

DO NOT USE. We tested this app with a select group of VIP Pros for two months but ultimately decided against it due to the steep pricing structure. After canceling our subscription, our website immediately experienced significant issues. It took our IT team three full days attempting to remove all the leftover CSS. Eventually, the damage was so extensive that we had no choice but to duplicate our theme entirely.

Hello! It looks like Locksmith was removed from your apps list before Locksmith’s code removal process was run. I’m really sorry for this experience, and I can definitely understand how frustrating this must have been. We really appreciate you letting us know how things went.

Locksmith does have a code removal process. However, after Locksmith is removed from the apps list, it no longer has permission to access your theme, which prevents it from removing its own code.

For anyone reading this who finds themselves in this situation: to remove all of Locksmith's code from your theme, reinstall Locksmith and then run the uninstall process from the Locksmith app’s “Help” page, or disable the app from the app’s settings page. You'll then be able to safely remove Locksmith from your apps list. Our comprehensive guide on this is here: https://www.locksmith.guide/basics/removing-locksmith

Regarding Locksmith’s pricing: Locksmith uses a Pay What Feels Good pricing policy. The price you see in the app is a suggested price based on your Shopify plan, but we're always open to a conversation about this and to work with you to find a price that feels good for both of us. You can read more about that here: https://lightward.com/pricing

We’re here to help! If you’re having any issue or are unsure how any of this works, please reach out to our support email address. We’re always happy to help: team@uselocksmith.com

We’re here to help if anything else comes up. 



All the best!

Locksmith is exactly what we needed for our wholesale store. They have recently added functions that are even more helpful, so I appreciate them always working to offer the best options. We get a lot from the low cost it is given at.The customer service is excellent, and a shout out to Erica for always giving me clear information on what she is doing and instructions for what I need to do.

Exceptional customer service and a brilliant product. Very beneficial for business and offers more opportunities for secret collections, VIP access, and other variations we hadn't even thought of to make our storefront engaging, elevated, and unique. 10/10! Huge ups to Tristan!

I would recommend this app. The app developer work with you to figure out if/how this app can work for your store or not. Keep in mind you may need a few days to get it dialed 100%, but the devs will work to deliver you a working solution.

Darn Locksmith for being too good! Due to Shopify''s fee structure on sales, I subscribed to a higher plan than I probably needed. Which meant that I was placed into a higher tier than I'd hoped for Locksmith. The dilemma is, I couldn't bring myself to reach out to ask for a lower price due to how well their plug-in works!
You see, I offer custom products that I only want people to be able to add to their carts (since I despise invoicing as I also have an expansive catalog) AFTER I send them back a proof of what I'd be making for them. Locksmith gives me the peace of mind of protecting my custom products from ordering ahead of a request which is invaluable. It also works with Shopify's app which of all the plug-ins I've had to subscribe to, is the only one.
Alls this to say, if you need to restrict products, I HIGHLY recommend Locksmith as it's been invaluable to my sanity and business model!
