Giftpin vs catalog-only
registry apps
Many Shopify registry apps only let customers add your own products. That's simple, but it's not how people register. Here's what changes when the registry can hold everything.
Side by side
| Catalog-only registry apps | Giftpin | |
|---|---|---|
| Gifts from other stores | Usually not: your catalog only | Yes, pasted from almost any online shop |
| Your products when a gift comes from elsewhere | The couple leaves to register somewhere else | Your closest match suggested beside it |
| Credit for Shop Pay, Apple Pay and Google Pay orders | Varies | Yes, every gift credited to the right item |
| Duplicate-gift protection for gifts bought elsewhere | Not applicable | Held while a guest buys |
| Registry pages on your own domain | Varies | Yes |
| Accounts for registrants and guests | Often required | Not needed |
"Catalog-only" describes registry apps that only let registrants add the store's own products. Features differ from app to app, so check each listing.
Questions merchants ask
What should I look for in a Shopify registry app?
Whether couples can add gifts from other stores, whether express checkouts like Shop Pay are credited to the right registry, how duplicate gifts are prevented, and whether the pricing takes a cut of your sales.
Doesn't letting registrants add other stores' products lose me sales?
Registrants who can't add everything tend to build a second registry elsewhere and send guests there. Giftpin keeps the whole list on your store and suggests your matching product beside each outside gift.
What does Giftpin cost?
Free covers unlimited registries, items and guests. Giftpin Pro is $9.99 a month with a 14-day free trial. Neither plan takes a cut of your product sales.
