The no-code ecommerce app builder for founders and brands. Ship a native shopping app for Android and iOS with product catalog, cart, secure checkout, payments and push notifications. Free plan, no code, publish to both stores.
An ecommerce app is a native mobile shopping app for Android and iOS that lets customers browse products, add items to a cart, and check out securely from their phone. Unlike a mobile website, an ecommerce app gives you push notifications, offline browsing, native payments and a home-screen icon that reads as a real brand.

Free plan, no code, publish to Google Play and Apple App Store. First app live inside 24 hours.

Mumbai · India“We stopped fighting Instagram algorithms and shipped a shopping app in ten days. App revenue overtook Instagram DMs by month two.”
Miami · USA“Our regulars used to text us for restocks. Now they open the app, tap add-to-cart, and we ship same-day. Push notifications sold out the Spring drop in three hours.”
Berlin · Germany“Subscribers customise their box the night before. Riders open the driver app, orders are batched, deliveries done by lunch. No more phone calls.”
Transparency about the ceiling. If you need any of these, we will tell you before you sign up.
We serve stores up to ~50K SKUs and ~10K orders/day comfortably. Beyond that (Shopify Plus territory), a custom stack fits better.
We don’t do X12 EDI, cXML or Peppol wholesale-integration protocols. Suited to D2C and B2C, not B2B procurement.
We’re a mobile app builder, not a full POS. If you need in-store card readers, cash drawers or barcode scanners, integrate a POS separately.
Product search handles up to ~50K SKUs with category+filter+tag. For faceted search across millions of SKUs, layer Algolia externally.
We support fiat gateways (Stripe, Razorpay, PayPal, COD, etc). Crypto and stablecoin payments aren’t included in the default flow.
Native syncs with Shopify and WooCommerce, plus REST API for CRMs. Full SAP / Oracle / Netsuite ERP integrations need custom work.
“Our Shopify traffic converts 2x better through the app than the mobile web store. Push notifications closed carts we would have lost.”
“Built our fashion app in eleven days, published to Play + App Store in another five. My developer quote was $18K and eight weeks.”
“The AI store generator saved us three weeks. It got the category tree, filters and even variant options right on the first pass.”
Free plan, no credit card, no code. Get a full shopping app with catalog, cart, payments and analytics in one workspace.
An ecommerce app is a native mobile shopping app for Android and iOS that lets customers browse products, add to a cart and check out securely from their phone. Unlike a mobile website, an ecommerce app gets push notifications, offline browsing, native payments and a home-screen brand icon.
Yes. Appy Pie ships a permanent free plan. Paid plans start at $16 per month and add native publishing, higher product limits, priority support and custom domain.
No. The builder is 100% no-code. Drag and drop new sections, upload products via CSV or Shopify sync, and configure payments through a guided setup. Zero coding required.
Most stores go from signup to a live preview inside 30 minutes. First store submission to Google Play and Apple App Store typically completes in 24 to 72 hours.
Stripe, Razorpay, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayU, Instamojo, Paytm, plus Cash on Delivery (COD) and offline invoicing. Regional gateways vary by country.
Yes. Native two-way sync with Shopify and WooCommerce, plus a REST API and Zapier for custom stacks. Product edits sync live in both directions.
Yes. Appy Pie generates signed APK/AAB for Google Play and signed IPA + provisioning profile for Apple App Store. Guided store-submission flow handles listing, screenshots and description.
Product catalog browsing works offline via local caching. Cart, checkout and order submission require an internet connection. Push notifications resume on next connection.
An app gets push notifications (95%+ open rate vs 21% email), offline browsing, native payments (Apple Pay, Google Pay), home-screen icon and native app-store discovery. Websites are cheaper to build but convert 2-3x lower on repeat visits.
Export your product catalog, customer list and order history as CSV at any time. We recommend Shopify Plus or a custom stack once you hit ~50K SKUs or ~10K orders/day.
