Notes
Back to top- An initial Shopify App Store analysis for our internal needs happened almost 4 years ago. We are preparing interesting timebased charts. Stay tuned!
- In 2017 Shopify stated "average app revenue is $2,000 monthly per app" on https://www.shopify.com/partners. Based on this average number we calculate the total monthly revenue of all Shopify applications in the Shopify App Store.
-
Estimated monthly revenue per Shopify app developer is a sum of all developer's Shopify apps revenue. However we count only recurring charges, we don't count one-time charges.
We use our own formula © to calculate a Shopify app revenue:
(price from + price to)/2 * count of reviews * installs to reviews rate * (1 - Shopify commission)
.-
Where:
-
price from
,price to
,count of reviews
are unique per Shopify app. -
installs to reviews rate
is general and equals to2.61
. So there are 261 installs per 100 reviews on average. This number is calculated to fit the Shopify apps total monthly revenue. 2 -
Shopify commission
is20%
.
