What ReConvert Does (and Where It Falls Short)
ReConvert is a Shopify app that customizes the thank-you (order confirmation) page and checkout experience with widgets designed to drive additional purchases. After a customer completes their order, they see a customized thank-you page with product recommendations, one-click upsell offers, discount codes for their next purchase, birthday collectors, order tracking, and reorder buttons. The idea is that customers are most receptive to additional offers immediately after purchasing.
While this approach has merit, ReConvert has significant limitations:
1. Revenue-Sharing Pricing Eats Into Profits
ReConvert charges a monthly fee ($4.99–$14.99) plus a percentage of the additional revenue it generates (up to 0.75%). This revenue-sharing model means the more successful the app is, the more you pay. A store generating $50,000/month in ReConvert-attributed revenue pays up to $375/month in revenue share alone — on top of the subscription fee. With EasyApps’ flat pricing model, you keep 100% of the additional revenue generated by your conversion tools.
2. Post-Purchase Reaches a Small Audience
The fundamental limitation of post-purchase optimization is audience size. Only customers who complete a purchase see the thank-you page. If your store has a 3% conversion rate, 97% of visitors never see ReConvert’s offers. Pre-purchase tools like upsell popups, free shipping bars, and rewards bars reach ALL visitors — including the 97% who haven’t purchased yet. This wider reach means pre-purchase optimization typically generates more total revenue than post-purchase upselling.
3. Limited Pre-Purchase Features
While ReConvert has expanded to include some checkout upsell features, its core strength remains the thank-you page. It doesn’t offer pre-purchase tools like gamified email popups, free shipping progress bars, automatic free gift rewards, countdown timers, or announcement bars. This means you need additional apps to handle pre-purchase conversion optimization, increasing your total app costs and management complexity.
4. Thank-You Page Engagement is Declining
As customers become accustomed to order confirmation emails arriving instantly, many close the thank-you page quickly without engaging with upsell offers. The attention window on the thank-you page is shrinking, making ReConvert’s primary touchpoint less valuable over time. Pre-purchase touchpoints (product pages, cart pages, site-wide bars) have longer engagement windows because the customer is actively shopping.
5. Complex Setup for Marginal Returns
ReConvert’s thank-you page builder includes a drag-and-drop editor with multiple widget types. Configuring an effective thank-you page requires understanding which widgets to use, how to segment offers by product type, and how to design an experience that converts without overwhelming the customer. This setup time could be better spent optimizing pre-purchase touchpoints that reach a much larger audience.

Why the EasyApps Suite Is a Better Alternative to ReConvert
1. You Keep 100% of Additional Revenue
ReConvert’s revenue-sharing model takes up to 0.75% of every dollar the app helps generate. This might seem small, but it compounds: a store generating $500,000/year through ReConvert-attributed upsells pays $3,750 in revenue share alone. EasyApps uses flat pricing with free plans available. Every dollar your conversion tools generate goes directly to your bottom line.
2. Pre-Purchase Optimization Has a Larger Impact
ReConvert only reaches the ~3% of visitors who complete a purchase. EasyApps’ pre-purchase tools reach 100% of visitors. A free shipping bar that increases AOV by 15% across all orders has a dramatically larger total impact than a thank-you page that generates a 5% re-purchase rate among existing buyers. The math strongly favors pre-purchase optimization for total revenue impact.
3. Multiple AOV Levers Working Simultaneously
EasyApps doesn’t rely on a single touchpoint. EA Upsell & Cross-Sell recommends products. EA Free Shipping Bar motivates spending to a threshold. EA Rewards Bar incentivizes with free gifts. EA Countdown Timer creates urgency. These four tools working together across the entire shopping journey drive more AOV increase than ReConvert’s single thank-you page touchpoint.
4. Email Capture Fuels Long-Term Revenue
EA Spin Wheel captures emails at 8–15% opt-in rates from ALL visitors — including the 97% who don’t purchase. Those email addresses fuel abandoned cart recovery, post-purchase cross-sell campaigns, and re-engagement sequences that drive repeat purchases over months and years. ReConvert’s birthday collection feature captures far fewer data points from a far smaller audience.
5. Simpler, More Predictable Costs
With EasyApps, you know exactly what you’re paying: $0/month on free plans, or a flat monthly fee for premium features. There are no surprise charges based on revenue performance, no percentage-based fees that grow as your store scales, and no cap overages. This predictability makes budgeting straightforward and ensures your conversion optimization ROI is always clearly positive.
Pre-Purchase vs Post-Purchase: Which Drives More Revenue?
Let’s run the numbers for a typical Shopify store with 10,000 monthly visitors and a 3% conversion rate:
| Metric | EasyApps (Pre-Purchase) | ReConvert (Post-Purchase) |
|---|---|---|
| Visitors Reached | 10,000 (all visitors) | 300 (purchasers only) |
| AOV Impact | +15–25% on all 300 orders | +5–10% re-purchase from ~15 buyers |
| Emails Captured | 800–1,500 (8–15% of visitors) | ~50 birthdays |
| Monthly Revenue Impact | $2,250–$3,750 additional | $300–$750 additional |
| Monthly Cost | $0 (free plans) | $10–$20 (sub + revenue share) |
The pre-purchase approach generates 3–5x more additional revenue because it reaches 33x more people. Even accounting for the different conversion mechanisms, the audience size advantage is decisive.

How to Switch from ReConvert to EasyApps (Step-by-Step)
Step 1: Identify What ReConvert Actually Does for You
Check ReConvert’s analytics to see what revenue it’s actually generating. Many merchants discover the attributed revenue is lower than expected once they examine the data carefully. Note which thank-you page widgets are active and their performance.
Step 2: Install Pre-Purchase EasyApps
Install the core trio: EA Upsell & Cross-Sell, EA Free Shipping Bar, and EA Auto Free Gift & Rewards Bar. These three apps create a multi-layered AOV optimization strategy that reaches all visitors before checkout.
Step 3: Add Email Capture
Install EA Email Popup & Spin Wheel to capture emails from the 97% of visitors who don’t purchase. This creates a long-term revenue channel that ReConvert’s thank-you page approach can’t replicate.
Step 4: Compare Revenue Impact
Run EasyApps for 2–4 weeks while keeping ReConvert active. Compare total additional revenue from both approaches. Most merchants find the pre-purchase tools generate more total revenue because they reach a vastly larger audience.
Step 5: Remove ReConvert
Once the data confirms the pre-purchase approach is generating more revenue, disable ReConvert. Your thank-you page returns to Shopify’s default (which works fine), and you stop paying the revenue share fee.
Pro Tip: When evaluating ReConvert’s revenue attribution, be skeptical of “attributed revenue” numbers. ReConvert may attribute revenue to thank-you page offers that the customer would have made anyway (repeat purchases, for example). True incrementality is often lower than the dashboard suggests. EasyApps’ pre-purchase AOV increase is more directly measurable — compare your average order value before and after implementation.
Who Should Still Use ReConvert?
- Stores with high repeat purchase rates: If 30%+ of your customers make repeat purchases within 30 days, ReConvert’s thank-you page reorder features and next-purchase discounts may have genuine value.
- Subscription-based businesses: If your core model is subscriptions, ReConvert’s ability to promote subscription sign-ups on the thank-you page can be effective for converting one-time buyers into subscribers.
- Stores wanting both pre- and post-purchase: Running EasyApps for pre-purchase optimization AND ReConvert for post-purchase could maximize revenue across all touchpoints, though this adds cost and complexity.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is ReConvert worth it for Shopify stores in 2026?
ReConvert charges $4.99–$14.99/month plus up to 0.75% of attributed revenue. The revenue-sharing model means costs grow as the app performs. EasyApps offers flat pricing and free plans, keeping 100% of additional revenue in your pocket.
What is the best ReConvert alternative for Shopify in 2026?
The EasyApps suite is the best ReConvert alternative. Pre-purchase tools (EA Upsell, EA Free Shipping Bar, EA Rewards Bar) reach all visitors and typically generate more total revenue than ReConvert’s post-purchase approach.
Is pre-purchase or post-purchase upselling better?
Pre-purchase optimization typically generates more total revenue because it reaches 100% of visitors. Post-purchase reaches only the ~3% who complete a purchase. EasyApps focuses on pre-purchase tools that maximize AOV before checkout.
Does EasyApps offer thank-you page optimization like ReConvert?
No. EasyApps focuses on pre-purchase conversion optimization. The philosophy is that increasing cart value before checkout (reaching all visitors) delivers more revenue than upselling on the thank-you page (reaching only purchasers).
How much can I save switching from ReConvert to EasyApps?
For a store generating $10,000/month in ReConvert-attributed revenue, the revenue share alone costs $75/month — plus the subscription. EasyApps’ flat pricing (free plans available) eliminates these costs entirely.
