Is there a free plan, or do I need to pay from day one?
Star Theme Sections & Bundles offers a permanent free plan that includes a large selection of free sections, basic blocks, and free product bundles — no trial period required. The paid Growth plan costs $15/month (or $99/year, saving 45%) and unlocks 100+ bold premium sections, advanced blocks, and unlimited bundles, with a 2-day free trial before committing.
Will this app slow down my store?
Merchants consistently report that the app does not negatively impact page speed. One reviewer noted it 'doesn't even affect my page loading times, even after implementing a variety of sections and video.' The Shopify Magic summary also confirms it 'maintains site speed with clean, SEO-friendly code.'
Does it work with my existing theme — do I need a developer to set it up?
The app is built to work directly within Shopify's native Theme Customizer, so sections can be added with a single click and customized without writing any code. Merchants report transforming their store's look 'without the expense of hiring an external developer,' and the app works on any Shopify 2.0-compatible theme.
Can I try sections before buying the premium plan?
Yes — the app lets you add sections directly to your actual theme with a watermark banner before purchasing, rather than forcing you to use a blank demo theme. This allows you to see exactly how each section looks and functions with your real store content before deciding to upgrade.
What kinds of sections and features are included?
The library includes 150+ theme sections and blocks covering tabs, slideshows, countdown timers, sticky add-to-cart, scrolling banners, popups, forms, and more. Standout tools include a Tabs Block Builder and Popup Builder that let you nest any theme or app blocks inside them — a capability reviewers say is unique among section store apps. Product bundles for boosting average order value are also included.
What do other merchants say about the support team?
Support is handled directly by the developer, Matt, and is widely praised across reviews. Merchants describe him as 'highly skilled and responsive,' with one noting he provided 'outstanding' help that went 'above and beyond.' Several reviewers mention getting helpful responses even on weekends with minimal wait time.
Has this app earned any trust signals or quality badges from Shopify?
Yes — Star Theme Sections & Bundles holds the 'Built for Shopify' badge, which means it meets Shopify's highest standards for performance, design, and integration. It also carries a 4.9-star rating across 174 reviews, with 94% of ratings being 5 stars, and was launched in May 2023 by Matthew Smith LLC.
