Who We Are

CartKrate started in early 2025 when three Shopify merchants got tired of wasting money on apps that slowed their stores, conflicted with each other, or just didn't deliver the promised ROI.

We built the directory we wished existed: real data, no affiliate spam, zero vendor bias. Every price is updated nightly via API. Every conflict warning comes from actual merchant reports on Reddit, support forums, and our own testing.

By February 2026, we're tracking 1,200+ apps across Shopify, WooCommerce, and BigCommerce, with 3,200+ merchants relying on our weekly Insider briefs.

Our Data Sources

Live API Pulls

Shopify App Store, WooCommerce Plugin Repo, BigCommerce Marketplace - nightly sync

Social Sentiment

1,200+ Reddit threads, YouTube comments, support tickets analyzed weekly

Academic Research

Core Web Vitals studies, JavaScript performance papers, e-commerce benchmarks

Our Lab Testing

Real stores, real traffic, real load tests - no simulations

Citation Standards

Every number, every claim, every warning on CartKrate is backed by:

  • Inline citations with source URLs
  • Date stamps (updated nightly or weekly depending on data type)
  • Multiple source verification for conflict warnings
  • PHD-grade fact-checking before publishing blog posts

By accessing CartKrate.com, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you disagree, please do not use our site.

2. Use of Data

All app data, prices, ratings, and conflict scores are provided "as is" for informational purposes.

5. Limitation of Liability

CartKrate is not responsible for decisions you make based on our data. We provide tools and information; you make the final call. If an app damages your store, that's between you and the vendor.

6. Changes to Terms

We may update these terms occasionally. Continued use after changes means acceptance.
