BlueCart vs Hextom Free Shipping Bar: current availability

Shopify says that Hextom Free Shipping Bar is not currently available in its App Store. You cannot use its old plan and feature listing to make a new app choice. This page keeps the former comparison URL so that merchants can check the current status and find available choices.

Checked September 26, 2026. Check the Hextom listing again before you decide. Its status can change.

Disclosure: Activory develops BlueCart. Hextom is a separate company. The availability statement comes from Shopify's Hextom listing. The current BlueCart facts below come from its Shopify App Store listing.

Can you install Hextom Free Shipping Bar?

The official Hextom listing currently says that the app is not available on the Shopify App Store. It gives a link to Hextom for support. The listing no longer shows a current price, plan, trial, or feature list. We cannot recommend it as a new install or compare its old plans with a current plan.

This status does not tell us whether an existing installation still works or why Shopify made the app unavailable. Ask Hextom about support for an existing store. Do not remove a working app before you have tested its replacement.

What if you already use Hextom?

Record what your current bar does before you change it. Check the cart page and cart drawer, mobile layout, shipping threshold, target markets, currency messages, and any page or customer rules. Save your settings and test the same tasks in a replacement app. Contact Hextom support through its listing if you need help with the existing app.

A progress bar is a message about a reward. Make sure the Shopify shipping, discount, or gift rule still provides that reward after any app change.

Which available apps can you check?

Merchant task	App to inspect	Current listing fact
Show several reward steps with a progress bar or checklist and cart upsells	BlueCart	$4/month with a 7-day trial. Its listing names tiered reward progress, cart upsells, market and customer rules, and currency handling.
Start with a free shipping bar and a free plan	Essential Free Shipping Bar	Its free plan lists up to 1,000 monthly booster views for top bars and product pages. Cart page boosters and product upsells are listed on its $14.99/month Essential plan.
Show several stacked goals or use a listed gift-with-purchase feature	Progressify	$5/month with a 5-day trial. Its listing names up to three stacked goals, gift with purchase, and product upsells.

These are listing claims checked on September 26, 2026. We did not test the competing apps in a merchant store. Check the official plan and trial again before you install.

BlueCart can show progress toward a free-gift threshold. It does not create the gift offer or add the gift product to the cart. Configure that action separately. If the app must create the gift action, test that full task in an app that lists it.

What should you check before a change?

1. Write down the reward and the rule that makes it active in Shopify.
2. Check where the bar must appear: product page, top bar, cart page, or cart drawer.
3. Check the plan that gives you the required placement and upsell controls.
4. Test every market, currency, and customer rule that your current store uses.
5. Check a full cart path on mobile and desktop before you turn off the old bar.
