Shoppers see how many units each of your stores actually has, pick one, and book a time — and that store is locked into Shopify's own checkout.
Nothing here replaces Shopify's checkout. Mixed carts, pickup orders, "Ready for pickup" emails and POS handoff all stay native — BopiSafe only adds the layer native pickup doesn't have.
Shopify's own pickup widget renders a yes/no. It stays green when the item would have to be transferred in first, when the store doesn't track that item, and when the last one is already promised to somebody else's order.
So the shopper drives across town and your team finds out at the counter. And there's no way to say when — the pickup happens whenever it happens.
Both failures are shopper-side. Neither shows up in your reports — the order simply never exists.
One flag, three stores. It reads the same whether the shelf holds six or none.
Shopify's own available quantity — on hand, minus committed, minus reserved. The number your staff would find on the shelf.
All four are in the free plan, at any number of stores. There is no feature behind the paid tier — the paid tier is the same product without a monthly ceiling.
Each pickup store shows its available quantity, read from Shopify's own inventory. Not a badge, not the "online" rollup, and never the on-hand figure that counts units already promised to other orders.
quantities, not flagsStores sit in a side panel of our own, never inside your theme's markup — but it measures your theme's colours, type and button shape when the page loads, so it reads as part of the store. No theme code, one app embed switch.
no theme editsSet a store-wide default and override it per store: opening windows, slot length, prep lead time, blackout days, how far ahead people can book. Days you can't serve keep their number but can't be picked.
defaults ready at installGive a slot a cap. When it fills, it disappears from the calendar and from checkout — both read the same record. Nobody is ever stopped by an error; a full slot is simply never offered.
hidden, never blockedYour stock sits in more than one place — the warehouse it ships from, the shops it's collected from. Which of these is you?
This is where the picker earns its keep. The shopper is choosing between your shops, and the only thing that makes that choice a good one is the count next to each name — plus a time they can actually make. Stores with none left stay on the list, greyed, so nobody wonders whether they missed one.
There's only one place to collect from, so the choice is easy — the number is the whole question. Your warehouse holds most of the stock and ships it; the shop holds a few. "Pickup available" says yes to both. BopiSafe says 2 at the shop, and lets the shopper book a window your staff can prepare for.
One line of stock and one button, under Add to cart. The button says where and when they're collecting, so the choice is visible before the cart. Buy-now is caught too — a direct checkout still carries the store and the time.
Store first, then the time — a real month calendar, because "the Saturday after next" is a thing you find by looking at a month, not by reading a row of labels. Full or closed days stay in place but can't be picked.
The same panel opens from the cart and from your theme's slide-out cart, where each store line reads All 3 items in stock instead of a single count.
Shopify's own checkout, showing the one store the shopper picked — the others are hidden so nobody quietly changes their mind at the last step. Slots that filled up are already gone.
What lands is a real native pickup order, tagged with its time so you can find it in the admin. Your pickup emails, POS handoff and reports carry on as if we weren't there.
Shopify's pickup got a lot better — it has taken mixed-cart splitting into native checkout, and that's exactly why this product got smaller. Here is the line between what it already does and what it still doesn't.
| In the shopper's hands | Shopify native pickup | BopiSafe Every plan |
|---|---|---|
| Stock, per store | — "Pickup available", a yes/no that stays true for stock needing a transfer | The available quantity at each store, from your own inventory |
| Choosing the store | At checkout, from a plain list with no stock in view | On the product page or in the cart, with the counts in view — then locked to that store at checkout |
| Booking a pickup time | — not offered | Month calendar plus slots, with lead time and blackout days |
| Capacity per slot | — not offered | A cap per slot; full slots vanish from storefront and checkout alike, never an error |
| Cart mixing pickup and shipping | Shopify splits it itself, in native checkout — rolling out across plans | Untouched — native owns the split, and we never fake an order |
| Number of pickup locations | Unlimited | Unlimited, including on the free plan |
Everything downstream of the order stays Shopify's: real native pickup orders, Shopify's own "Ready for pickup" notifications, POS handoff, and one pickup store per order. BopiSafe adds a layer in front of checkout and gets out of the way.
One number decides your plan: how many pickup orders you take in a month. Everything else — every feature, every store — is the same on both.

No. BopiSafe works on every Shopify plan from Basic up. The one checkout customization it installs is a Shopify Function, and public App Store apps containing functions run on any plan.
No theme code, no template editing. You flip one app embed on in the theme editor. The picker lives in its own element rather than in your theme's markup, and reads your theme's colours, type and button shape at runtime so it looks like it belongs.
Only to hide things. One Delivery Customization Function keeps the pickup store the shopper already chose and hides pickup slots that have filled up, so checkout agrees with what the storefront showed. It never blocks a checkout and never shows an error — if something is full, it is simply not offered.
No, and that's deliberate. Shopify has taken mixed-cart splitting into native checkout and is rolling it out across plans, so we stay out of it entirely and add only the layer the platform still doesn't have: which store really has it, and when you can collect it. If the native split hasn't reached your store yet, a cart mixing a pickup-only item with a ship-only one can still stall — that gap needs a cart-splitting app, and we are honestly not it.
Nothing on your storefront. The store picker, the times and the checkout behaviour keep running exactly as before — we will not break a working pickup flow over billing. You see a note on the app home page and get one email. The count resets on the first of each month (UTC).
It comes live from your Shopify inventory and is cached for about 30 seconds, so a shopper may see a number up to roughly a minute and a half old at worst. If Shopify can't be reached we show nothing at all rather than a wrong "out of stock" — a missing line is recoverable, a false one costs you the sale.
Not today. BopiSafe is pickup only, on purpose — local delivery needs its own address-to-store matching, delivery windows and capacity model, and doing it badly next to pickup helps nobody.
Give pickup a number.

Letting an app near your checkout is a big ask — see who builds it, why it got smaller, and where the edges are.
