    FAQ

    Required — frequently asked questions.

    What is Required on Shopify?
    Required, officially listed on the Shopify App Store as Required: Cart page fields, is a Shopify app in the Cart customization category. With our app, you can easily add custom fields to your cart page, and optionally make them required. Customers won't be able to visit the checkout area unless they fill out the information you need. The captured information is saved with Shopify and available to you in the order page. It can also be exported, displayed in emails and order printouts etc. The app supports the newest theme format known as Online Store 2.0. It averages 5.00 out of 5 across 9 merchant reviews on the Shopify App Store.
    How much does Required cost?
    Required has a single paid plan at $5/month on the Shopify App Store.
    Is Required free?
    No, Required is a paid Shopify app. Plans start at $5/month on the Shopify App Store.
    When was Required launched?
    Required launched on August 18, 2017 — over 8 years on the Shopify App Store. In that time it has gathered 9 merchant reviews.
    Is Required Built for Shopify?
    Required does not currently carry Shopify's Built for Shopify badge. The badge is awarded to apps that meet Shopify's published standards for performance, ease of use, and merchant value — many high-quality apps operate without it.
    What are the best Required alternatives?
    Merchants commonly compare Required with Upsell.com, Essential Upsell & Cross Sell, EG Auto Add to Cart Free Gift, and Kaching CartDrawer Cart Upsell. Each alternative covers a similar use case but differs on pricing model, integration depth, and the specific themes merchants praise in reviews — see the alternatives section above for a side-by-side.

    Methodology

    Where the numbers come from.

    Ratings, review counts, pricing tiers, “Built for Shopify”, launch date, and category memberships come from the live Shopify App Store listing — refreshed daily by Ongoing.AI’s crawler. The review-count trajectory is the diff between today’s snapshot and snapshots from 7 and 28 days ago. Topic counts and sentiment come from the review corpus, topic-tagged with Claude. Install footprint is observed via Ongoing.AI’s tech-detection pass against actively-tracked Shopify storefronts. Catalog position is computed at snapshot time against every active app sharing the primary category. Snapshot generated .

    Find every brand running Required.

    Ongoing.AI tracks every Shopify brand’s app stack daily. Pull the full install list, filter by vertical or geography, and catch the moment merchants install — or churn off.
