Install it if you want one warehouse-backed source of truth for profit, ROAS, CAC and LTV and can pay $750 a month or more1,2. The catch: there is no free plan or trial, and the price steps up with your revenue, to $1,125 a month at $5M to $7.5M a year2.

Consider it if you spend heavily on ads across several channels and want first-party multi-touch attribution with strategist support2. The catch: every plan is quoted, Starter begins at $1,500 a month, and your price depends on your pageviews2.

Start on the free plan for a one-screen view of sales, ads and first- and last-click attribution, and move to Foundation at $219 a month if you need multi-touch attribution1. The catch: paid plans are 12-month commitments priced by revenue tier, and Triple Whale does not publish the tier prices2.
Fails: prices public at every size, built for shopify, rated 4.7 or higher, 500+ merchant reviews, works with shopify flow. Full review
Polar Analytics ranks first here: it passes 3 of our eight checks and costs $750 a month at 2,000 orders. Install it if you want one warehouse-backed source of truth for profit, ROAS, CAC and LTV and can pay $750 a month or more. The catch: there is no free plan or trial, and the price steps up with your revenue, to $1,125 a month at $5M to $7.5M a year.
At 2,000 orders a month, Polar Analytics costs the least of the apps we priced: $750 a month on Core Plan. The order changes at other sizes; use the table above or price your whole stack.
By how many of our eight checks each app passes, then by the monthly bill for a growing store. No developer can pay for a place.
