LiveShoply vs SoldLive: the SoldLive alternative for Shopify

LiveShoply adds itself to your store as a Shopify app embed and app blocks, so there's no theme code to edit and nothing is left behind if you uninstall. You place the live and replays section, shoppable video carousels and playlists from the theme editor, like any other section.

The floating mini-player that appears when you go live can be styled in the theme editor too: left or right position, horizontal and vertical margins, separate desktop and mobile widths, corner radius, border color and thickness, an overlay message, and whether it shows on desktop, mobile or both. The widget loads after your page content, so it doesn't hold up how fast your store appears.

The storefront widget, emails and admin are available in 11 languages (English, Turkish, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Portuguese, Polish, Japanese and Swedish), and the widget follows your store's language automatically. To see how SoldLive handles this, check the languages and theme integration on its App Store listing.

Whichever live shopping app you pick, these questions will save you from surprises later:

1. How will my bill grow? Streaming hours, viewer minutes and per-viewer charges behave very differently as your audience grows. Model your next six months, not just your first show.
2. How easy is it to go live? If going live requires a laptop, OBS or a separate app, you'll run fewer shows. Phone-browser streaming removes most of the friction.
3. What happens after the show? Check that replays become shoppable automatically and that you can turn moments into short videos for product pages.
4. Which engagement tools are on my plan? Polls, giveaways and live-only discounts are what keep viewers watching — make sure they aren't locked behind an upgrade.
5. Do I own my audience? Confirm you can export the shoppers who signed up for reminders, or sync them to your email platform.
6. Will it slow my store down? Look for an app embed that loads after your page and only streams video when it's opened.

All prices, limits and features for SoldLive come from its public Shopify App Store listing, checked on October 17, 2026. Where a feature isn't mentioned on the listing we mark it "Not listed" rather than assuming it's missing. LiveShoply details come from our own pricing page and feature list.

Cost scenarios use typical show patterns for small and growing stores and add roughly 15% for replay viewing. Your real usage will depend on your audience. If you spot something out of date, email hello@liveshoply.app and we'll correct it.
