Market Share Distribution Across Also Bought Shopify Apps

Essential Upsell & Cross Sell holds the largest share of also bought app installs at just 88.8% — meaning also bought is a fragmented market where many apps capture meaningful share rather than one app dominating. BOGOS: Free Gift Bundle Upsell rounds out the top 3 at 2.1%. Combined, the top 3 apps cover 94.8% of all also bought app share — leaving substantial share for the rest of the field. Notable mover: Essential Upsell & Cross Sell is gaining share fastest this month (+0.67pp). Also Bought CBB has lost the most share this month (-0.71pp) — the largest single decliner among the top also bought apps.

Also Bought is fragmented — even the top 3 apps capture only 94.8% between them and BOGOS: Free Gift Bundle Upsell at 2.1% still holds meaningful share, so for merchants there's no "safe default" leader, and pricing model and feature fit matter more than where an app sits in the share order.

Also Bought Shopify Apps — Market Share Trend Analysis

Essential Upsell & Cross Sell's share contracted from 91.0% (Oct 2025) to 88.8% (Oct 2026) — a -2.1pp drop for the leader, the kind of decline that often signals an emerging challenger eating into the install base. Across the top 5 plotted also bought apps, 3 grew share and 2 lost share — net upward movement at the top of the category.

Essential Upsell & Cross Sell's -2.1pp contraction usually means a specific use case is being won by a challenger — the share-trend chart is where this kind of leader-side erosion shows up before it's visible in single-month snapshots of the also bought category.

Also Bought Shopify Apps — Frequently Asked Questions

1. Which also bought app has the highest market share on Shopify?

Essential Upsell & Cross Sell ranks #1 by share among also bought apps at 88.8%, but the market is fragmented — multiple apps capture meaningful share. Compare the top 5 on features and pricing before deciding.

2. How is market share calculated for also bought Shopify apps?

Each app's weighted score is divided by the total weighted score across the keyword to give the share %. This reflects Shopify search behaviour: most installs come from the top of the results.

6. How many also bought apps does ShopDigest track on Shopify?

ShopDigest tracks 96 also bought apps on the Shopify App Store. Market share, rankings, and review data refresh weekly so you can track competitive shifts as they happen.

7. Why does the highest-share also bought app differ from the #1 ranked app?

Rank reflects an app's current position in the Shopify App Store under also bought (driven by Shopify's own algorithm), while market share on ShopDigest is estimated from review counts and other factors as a proxy for active installs. The two metrics move on independent dynamics, so the highest-share app and the #1-ranked app are not always the same — and a divergence between them is worth noting rather than assuming one will pull the other along. For also bought, Essential Upsell & Cross Sell leads on share; see the rankings tab for who currently holds #1 position.
