03 The difference
Separate apps, suites, and one engine.
| Question | Separate apps | Suites like Yotpo | Ayra |
|---|---|---|---|
| Customer profile | One per app; six apps, six records. | One per product, connected by integrations. | One profile every module reads and writes. |
| Conflicts between channels | None. Each app sends on its own schedule. | Per product, unless you wire rules between them. | Journey Guard checks every action for conflicts and frequency. |
| Attribution | Every app claims the lift. | Each product reports its own lift. | One source; each order attributed to the action that earned it. |
| Billing | One bill per app, each metered differently. | One vendor, products priced separately. | One bill, priced on orders, every module included. |
04 Stack cost
What four apps cost next to one.
A store doing 2,000 orders a month, on the published plans that cover that volume. Each price links to the page it came from.
| App | Plan | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Smile.io | Growth | $199/mo |
| Judge.me | Awesome | $15/mo |
| Swym Wishlist Plus | Pro | $59.99/mo |
| Recharge | Starter | $99/mo |
| Four apps, four bills | ≈ $372.99/mo | |
| Ayra Growth · Up to 5,000 orders/mo | $79/mo | |
Recharge Starter also charges 1.49% + 19¢ per transaction, which is not in the total. Ayra Growth covers 2,000 orders with every module included; Starter and Scale prices are announced at launch.
05 FAQ
How these comparisons work.
How are these comparisons made?
Each page is built from the vendor's own pricing page and its Shopify App Store listing, fetched on the date shown. Anything we could not verify from those two sources is shown as a dash, never guessed.
How often are they updated?
Each page carries its verification date. We re-check when a vendor changes pricing or when a reader tells us something is out of date via the contact page.
Can I run Ayra alongside my current app during migration?
Yes. Keep your current app live while Ayra imports your data, then switch storefront widgets once balances and reviews match.
What does migration import?
Loyalty balances and tiers, referral codes, reviews with photos, wishlists and restock registrations, and subscription contracts, depending on the app. Each comparison page lists the specifics.
Is Ayra cheaper?
Usually when you replace three or more apps, because every module is included in one order-based tier. Not always for one app: Judge.me alone, for example, costs less than Ayra.
