All CartDNA payment apps are fully compatible with every Shopify subscription plan.
Whether you’re using the Shopify Starter, Basic, Shopify, Advanced, or Shopify Plus plan, CartDNA apps are designed to function seamlessly across all tiers of Shopify subscriptions.
As an official Shopify Payment App Partner, CartDNA is fully approved and recognized by Shopify. This means every payment application we develop is vetted to ensure it aligns with Shopify’s platform standards, APIs, and checkout architecture—ensuring merchants across all plan levels can use our apps without compatibility issues.
This compatibility is especially important for growing businesses. For example, if you begin with the Basic Shopify plan and later upgrade to Shopify Advanced or Plus, you won’t need to make any changes to your CartDNA payment apps. The functionality remains consistent and fully operational across your business journey—giving you the flexibility to scale without worrying about payment integration disruptions.
Additionally, Shopify’s payment app system operates uniformly across all plans. This means the core structure that allows integration with third-party payment applications—including those by CartDNA—is consistent regardless of your subscription tier. As a result, you can benefit from the same alternative payment methods, processing capabilities, and configuration tools whether you’re running a small store or managing an enterprise-scale operation.
Some merchants mistakenly assume that access to custom payment methods or third-party gateways is limited to Shopify Plus. While Shopify Plus does offer some exclusive features (such as Shopify Scripts or Launchpad), it’s important to clarify that payment app compatibility is not one of those limitations. CartDNA’s apps are built using Shopify’s official Payment Apps API, which is available across all Shopify plans—not just Plus.
This universal compatibility ensures that merchants at any stage of their eCommerce journey can benefit from:
Access to global and local Alternative Payment Methods (APMs).
Smooth checkout integration through Shopify’s native checkout flow.
Real-time transaction handling and webhook-based status updates.
Access to global and local Alternative Payment Methods (APMs).
Custom configuration options available inside the Shopify admin panel.
Ongoing support and app updates fully aligned with Shopify requirements.
For merchants using lower-tier plans like Starter or Basic, this also means you don’t need to upgrade to a more expensive plan just to enable a specific CartDNA-powered payment method. You can still integrate supported APMs and begin accepting payments without limitations from your Shopify plan.
In summary, CartDNA payment apps are built with Shopify’s entire merchant base in mind—from first-time sellers to seasoned global brands. As long as you’re using the Shopify platform, you can rely on our apps to connect your store to the payment methods you need, regardless of your subscription level.
If you ever have questions about compatibility with your specific Shopify plan, CartDNA’s support team is always ready to assist and verify your setup.
