Stopped working after a few weeks, after I'd spent hours populating it. No response at all from customer services. Uninstalled.
I’m so sorry. We’re normally known for our exceptional attention to detail, and we regret that we missed the mark. Your review is very concerning to us. We would appreciate if you would contact our customer support team by responding to the latest ticket.
Thank you for letting us know about this. Your feedback helps us get better. We are looking into this issue and hope to resolve it promptly and accurately.
This app has got worse and worse since more users are using it. This app relies on api calls to their own servers, which slows down your checkout. As of today, their server is down, with a 503 error showing in my shopify apps admin section, and a greyed out 'add to cart' button on my website cart page, meaning no-one can purchase from my store. Ive had to roll back my theme 6 months to get rid of their code as an uninstall does not fix this issue. The developers behind this take days to respond to tickets.
Be aware that installing this app means that your cart will be slower and that if any issues arise your cart button will not work. I guess this is the price you pay for using a free app!

I was using this app since the last year and it was working absolutely fine but after the recent update, it stopped working. Please help
Hi there,
We have followed up and resolved the ticket as per your request. The issue was due to some code conflict since the last installation but it has been resolved.
It would be great if you can update this review to be more accurate.
Thank you.
DO NOT USE THIS APP. THE APP SUDDENLY STARTED CALCULATING ALL THE DISCOUNTS WRONG AND WE GOT SOME CUSTOMERS BUYING WITH 90% AND 100$ DISCOUNT. i CONTACTED THE CHAT, THEY WERE ONLINE, THEY READ MY COMMENTS AND THEY DIDN'T REPLY.
Firstly, we would like to thank you for the feedback provided, it is truly valued and most important for the improvement of our apps. We are deeply sorry for the inconvenience caused by our app’s dysfunctionality. We hope our paths will cross again in the future since we are at your disposal for any queries you may have.
Sorry, have to vote down my inicial rating. This plugin destroyed my shoppify store and cannot be uninstalled completely. It interacted badly with another app. Support tried to help in the beginning but gave up. No reactions anymore. So one star for the app and one star for the support. Really dissapointed.

The app is hard to configure by yourself, most probably it won't work and they have special hack for every theme.. I am very disappointed by their lack of communication and their bad intent. As from the moment I saw I can't make it work on my custom turbo theme, I opened a request for an installation. THEY REMOVED COMPONENTS FROM MY SITE AND BROKE CART FUNCTIONALITY. They are rude and told me that they have specified in their FAQ that it doesn't work with ajax cart, so they decided to remove it and letting the cart icon non-functional without asking me if i'd like their app at this risk... I wsdon't ever work with Hulk apps and I hope you take this into consideration. DON'T RISK YOUR SALES FOR THIS. Take care of your store and don't give them access.. they'll modify whatever they have to in order for their app to work. This is not even close to being a profeksional!
Hi there,
Thanks for your feedback. However, we respectfully disagree.
Our SLA policy is to answer every ticket within 4 hours. We do a great job and for dealing with 1000s of customers weekly and provide a FREE service. Our numbers this month. :) - https://nimb.ws/Ufr0XE
In regards to the app hacking, that is not true. Most apps do inject code as it's the only way to add snippets and functionality. In many cases, not just with our apps, Sometimes themes aren't compatible out of the box due to customizations. This is entirely true for all of the apps in the marketplace.
We do our best to make the process least intrusive but in some cases it does require custom work and our support team is on standby.
I would appreciate you updating this review to reflect a more accurate assessment of our service and dedication to our customers and the Shopify Apps community.
Thanks,
Alen
I asked for a simple code tweak to fix an alignment issue this app was causing on my cart page. Support asked for way too many permissions for my liking. Why does your staff need access to my orders, customers, marketing and reports for a simple code tweak. I've requested much more detailed work from other apps and never had to give access to these sections. Worse yet, my ask for a simple explanation as to why access is needed was met with a very poor response "Our developer needs access as mentioned". Yes, ok. But why? I'm happy to change my review once a proper explanation can be made, until then I will be uninstalling, as per Shopify's advice. My simple advice to other merchants is beware.
Hi there,
We apologize for the confusion and miscommunication. You've been a user of ours since October. Recently, we introduced a major upgrade to our app that would have required an approval on app permissions and that's why one of our team members asked for full permissions. In fact, we've spoken to our team and have made sure we clarify needs or communicate properly with our clients to avoid these issues.
It would be great if you can update the review if you feel this suffices. Otherwise, I'd be happy to discuss this further personally. You can reach me at a at hulkcode dot come and I'm happy to discuss this miscommunication further.
Thank you.
I have applied this app to my store for my discounts however when my customers go to check out on apple pay the discount removes itself. The discount however works for all other payment methods.
I have emailed Volume & Tiered Discounts numerous times and had nothing back - really sad as everything else about this app works perfectly and its easy to use

User beware! I tried this app and it it APPEARS to work but does not.
The discount was present all the way through the checkout process but once the customer clicked the "Pay now" button the app would only sometimes apply the discount. Customers credit cards would be charged more than they were quoted.
I deactivated the app quickly but in the time it was being used, it had about a 50% success rate.
Unreliable. Do not recommend.

I am having customers who use Internet Explorer complain they cannot check out. I reached out to Shopify for help and they advised it was this app. I reached out to Hulk's support and they said "I would like to inform you that our application doesn't function well with IE browser as it doesn't supports the latest version of JQuery."
I have customers leaving without purchasing because they can't checkout. Just letting anyone who have customers using Internet Explorer to be cautious using HulkApps products.
I'm sorry you faced a lot of trouble. Thank you for identifying this issue and getting in touch with us. We're excited to share the news that our team is currently working on some of the improvements with browser versions and we'll be able to fix this issue latest by next week.
Happy to have you back if you choose to give it another try!
