Shopney’s Multi-Store feature allows you to combine multiple Shopify stores into a single mobile app. Each store keeps its own products, inventory, and content, but your customers experience it all in one unified app.

They can choose which country or store they want to browse when they open your app, creating a smooth, localized shopping experience while letting you manage each store separately.

This feature is especially valuable for international or multi-brand businesses that want to:

  • Expand globally while maintaining localized experiences

  • Strengthen brand consistency across different markets

  • Give users an easy way to choose their preferred country or store

  • Publish a single mobile app on the App Store and Google Play instead of multiple separate ones

Now that you know what Multi-Store does and how it helps your business grow across markets, let’s go through how it looks on the mobile app and how it can be set up!

🔎 Available Plan

This feature is available in the Enterprise Plan.


How the Multi-Stores will look on your mobile app

When customers open your multi-store app for the first time, they’ll see a Select Your Country screen that lists all available store options. From here, they can choose which store they’d like to browse by clicking on their preferred store and then the Apply button.

Once they select a country, they’ll be taken to that store’s app experience, with localized products, collections, prices, and other content specific to that region.

This selection is saved automatically, so users won’t be asked again the next time they open the app. However, if they ever want to switch to another store, they can easily do so from the menu.

Each store operates independently within the app, meaning inventory, product details, and collections are managed separately on their respective Shopify stores and Shopney dashboards.

💡 Tip

Use consistent naming and visuals across all stores, such as similar banners or color schemes. This helps customers recognize your brand while still providing localized experiences for each market.


How Multi-Store works

1- Install Shopney in each store

To use the Multi-Store feature, you’ll need to install the Shopney on each of your Shopify stores that you want to combine under one app. Each of these stores must have its own separate Shopify account (or unique store URL) to function properly.

2- Select the Enterprise plan for all stores

The Multi-Store feature is available exclusively in the Enterprise Plan. Make sure that all stores you plan to include in your Multi-Store setup are subscribed to this plan before proceeding.

3- Complete the App Submission steps

Before the Multi-Store setup can begin, each store must complete the standard app submission steps below:

4- Inform the Shopney Team

Once all your stores have completed the app submission steps, contact our support team via live chat or email to let them know you’re ready for Multi-Store setup. From that point on, our team will take care of the process during the app submission stage, ensuring all stores are combined under one app.

Now that you know how the Multi-Store setup will take place, let’s see how your main and child stores will function within the app!


Main Store and Child Store structure

In every multi-store setup, one of your stores will act as the main store, and the others will be added as child stores.

  • The main store is the version submitted to Apple and Google Play. All future app updates, store screenshots, listing changes, etc., are handled through this store only.

  • The child stores are connected to the same app but operate independently in terms of products, collections, and settings.

  • All integrations must be configured separately for each store, except for Google Analytics, which needs to use the same account credentials across all stores.

🔔 Reminder

Regular maintenance updates of child apps are managed through the main app.

💡 Tip

If your brand serves different regions, make sure each Shopify store reflects local settings such as pricing, currency, language, and tax rules. This ensures customers get a localized and consistent shopping experience inside the same app.
