Best Appifyfor Shopify appsBest Appifyfor Shopify appsStore Leads is a database of Shopify stores sold to anyone — your rivals included. BestAppify reads your own Shopify Partner API and shows the stores that installed your apps, free. One is a market directory; the other is your own pipeline.
Store Leads is a Shopify-store database sold by the search. Its homepage positions it as “the platform for ecommerce data” for lead generation, data enrichment, market research and alternative-investment feeds (storeleads.app). It tracks 3,225,094 Shopify stores alongside 14.2M stores across 417 platforms, updated weekly, with ~135,000 new stores added a week. Premium is “$75/mo” for 2,000 searches a month, Pro “$250/mo” opens unlimited searches and the API, Elite “$450/mo” exposes every store, Enterprise “$950/mo” raises the rate limit and adds a dedicated account manager. Great fit if the work is outbound at scale or sizing a market.
BestAppify reads your own Shopify Partner API. Connect once and we show the shops that installed your apps — the shop handle, when they installed, when they uninstalled, their current status, and the revenue each one has paid you — free, with no per-search meter and no one else's eyes on the rows. That is a strictly narrower dataset than Store Leads: it is the slice of the Shopify universe that is already your customer, which is exactly what Store Leads cannot structurally show for your apps, because a merchant installing your app is a private Partner event, not a public store attribute.
What the free card shows today. In /dashboard/installs, each row from app_shop_installs lists the merchant's shop handle, first_installed_at, uninstalled_at if they churned, the plan they are on, and the lifetime revenue they have paid you — read from your Partner API by your own token, not resold to anyone. Store Leads can list the store; it cannot tell you the merchant installed your app yesterday morning, because it reads the public storefront, not your Partner inbox.
Every Store Leads claim below comes from their public site, pricing page, API docs, changelog or reports, checked 4 November 2026. We have not used their product from the inside. They ship often, so if something here is out of date we'd rather hear about it and fix it — please tell us.

| Is the data sold to competitors too | No — it is your Partner data, read by your token, shown only to you | Yes — the same rows are sold to anyone who pays, including your rivals |

|---|---|---|
| Price to see the shop that installed your app yesterdayYou can see a store on Store Leads and even see that it has your app installed; you cannot see when it installed or when it uninstalled, because that data lives in your Partner account, not on the storefront. | Free — Partner API read via your own token | Not available — Store Leads does not have per-app Partner install events |
| Entry price | $0 (free tier, Partner connect included) | $75/mo (Premium, 2,000 searches/month) |

| The date each shop installed and uninstalled your app | Yes — first_installed_at, uninstalled_at, plan changes | No — public-storefront scraping cannot see Partner install events |
| How much each shop has paid you | Yes — Partner API revenue per shop per day | No — merchant-to-developer payments are not public |
| Public store attributes (products, theme, estimated traffic)If you need a storefront's theme or product count, Store Leads is built for that and we are not. | No — BestAppify does not crawl storefronts | Yes — tens of per-store fields, updated weekly |

If the job is prospecting Shopify merchants at scale, enriching a CRM with storefront attributes, sizing a market, or feeding an investor report with 3.2M Shopify stores and 14.2M across 417 platforms — Store Leads is the category leader and nothing BestAppify does on this page competes with that. Their $75/mo Premium with 2,000 searches a month is the cheapest entry into that dataset and their Pro at $250/mo opens unlimited searches and the API.
If the question is "which shops installed MY app, when, which ones churned and how much did each one pay me" — BestAppify reads that directly from your Shopify Partner API through your own token, free. We also give you daily App Store keyword ranks, rival listing-change history and review intelligence that Store Leads does not touch. Our data is strictly narrower than theirs, by design: it is yours, read by your token, shown only to you.
One token, read-only. We show the shops that installed your apps, when they installed, who churned and how much each one paid — no per-search meter, no one else sees the rows.
