BEWARE! While this app might function well, the developers are out for a money grab. Don't be lured by the FREE trial. We deleted the app TWICE, only to learn that it was still active and we were being charged for it for over 2 years, while not utilizing it on our site. On top of it, they increased the monthly charge from $49 to $99 without any notice!

Granted, we should have caught this earlier, but the way app charges are billed through Shopify, they are often buried amongst other charges, such as shipping and marketplace charges.

Once we realized there was a consistent charge, we asked the developers for a billing statement, which they initially refused to provide, and then only sent a screen shot of the last 6 months. We explained to them that the app was not being used on the site and the test bundle we created was not published, but they refused to partner with us and would not consider any refund.

There are SO MANY bundle apps out there, so it would seem like customer service and partnership would be a standout quality for a company that is supposed to support businesses of all sizes.

Very disappointed by lack of professionalism and care.

We’ve been using this app for over a year, and it used to work very well — the features were solid and the customer support was responsive.

However, over time, the support quality has declined significantly. It's getting SOOOO EXPENSIVE. Recently, response times have become extremely slow, which is very concerning for a tool that directly impacts site performance.

Today, the app even caused our cart to crash, which affected our entire day’s sales. This is unacceptable for a production environment.

We’ve since uninstalled the app and will not be using it again.

If you're running a serious e-commerce business, I would strongly recommend caution before relying on this app.

1) Found bugs that were causing serious issues with our store. Customer service (Samuel 5/5 stars for effort) fixed the issues eventually.

2) Pricing was $49pcm, and within a couple of weeks of using it we were nudging the next payment 'level', which would have been $199pcm.

3) Today (19th Feb 26) got an email to say our pricing was to increase (in the next 2 weeks) to $99pcm, with the new level at $249 (or $299 I think)

No thanks. Pure GREED.

Incredibly buggy app, promising the world in future updates but offering little value in the here and now. Ongoing development on app features broke our cart over a weekend forcing uninstall.

Thank you for your review. We attempted to reach out to you via email to help resolve the order test and explain how it works. Unfortunately, we haven’t heard back from you.

We’ve followed up once more and look forward to hearing from you.

Amplify (Bundles) caused repeated pricing and cart failures on our high-volume store. Bundle prices took 4–15 seconds to load, then often reverted to full price in cart; the cart also buffered or failed to load. Hotjar recordings confirm the issues. During this period our conversion rate fell ~40% with no other site changes. Support was circular and slow: two unhelpful chats, a sales call that couldn’t help, then an email asking me to restate everything instead of reviewing history. We switched to Fast Bundle, whose team fixed customisations instantly. Not recommended.

Changed our shipping options to give free overnight shipping for free to anywhere in the world and free ground shipping as well which we do NOT offer. We lost a lot of money due to this. It also decided to make random products and post them without my knowledge. Terrible app, I never touched anything to do with shipping just wanted to test out the looks of it and then uninstalled after I found it didn't suit our store. Had it for about an hour and it caused so much havoc.

Thank you for your review. We apologize for any inconvenience caused. It seems you've enabled the "Spend X Get Y" feature along with the free shipping option during the app's onboarding process. To offer further assistance, we've reached out to you directly via email.

I left a 5 stars reviews in the past, because their customer service is excellent and the app is very easy to use. When it comes to charges, though, they are not so excellent. I would be happy to pay whatever the charge if they bring me business, but as a matter of facts thay have charged me for something has nothing to do with their business. For example, I set with them a Minimum spend amount of £50 to get free shipping. I have a product (one single product, not a bundle) that costs £52, so they have charged me because they consider every amount over £50, even though that sale doesn't depend at all from their work but it's the price of my product. And also, it happened that one customer bought one single product (clearly it's not a bundle, nor an upsell nor a cross sell) and when I asked explanation they told me that the customer bought it from their cart. Well, I deactivated the app.

Thank you for sharing this review. We’re sorry to hear that you changed your mind about the app. However, we have provided the facts of this case several times, and unfortunately, you chose to ignore them.

Here’s what happened: PickyStory is a full platform for bundles and upsell experiences. Our intelligent cart (PickyCart) was enabled in your store and recommended a product to your customer, which was then purchased. This product was added from the recommendation box rather than your organic pages. We never attribute organic additions to the cart, as it’s obviously not value that we created. The recommended products are generated through our own algorithm and help you sell more products in the store. In this case, the product was a new sale that occurred from the recommendation box, which is why it was attributed to PickyStory.

We reached out to you to arrange a call so we can provide a solution and help you fully set up the app.

I actually really liked this app at first. However I noticed in my orders that they were being tagged with "Pickystory" even though the bundle wasn't being purchased. So basically, if someone adds to their cart with the bundle, then removes everything in the cart except 1 or 2 items, Pickystory counts that as their revenue, and I just don't see that as fair. Super happy to pay them when the actual bundle is bought, but this method just sucks because it's charging you without the sale of the bundle. I'll be looking for another option.

Further attempts to reach a fair solution to this company's greedy and irrational billing practices have proven impossible. This company has no sense of integrity or customer service. They will milk you for every dollar they can for as long as you can. When you stop using it, make sure you remove it completely as an app from your store because they'll keep billing you even if you're not using it at all! 0 stars. Avoid this company!

Thank you for your review. PickyStory only attributes revenue that was generated by or directly influenced by a PickyStory tool or scenario. We have reviewed your case and confirmed that the line items were attributed correctly, as they originated from a PickyStory bundle addition.

We have reached out to you directly to resolve this issue and to ensure that we provide complete information about this case.

We generated close to $900 revenue but also paid $900 per month - which resulted in a major loss. This was not known to us and the team has refused to issue any refund.The experience has been extremely disappointing. Product has a lot of bugs in terms of look and feel, and internally some basics are not put in place.

Increased price of app by 5x! We have been using this app for a couple of years just for the combo product feature - really disappointed they increased our monthly price from $30 to $169! Have now found another app called Simple Bundle which is only $24 a month and does the same thing.
