If you work in ecommerce, sales, lead qualification, or agency services, you often need to verify:

Is this store built on Shopify?

As of 2025, Shopify powers over 2 million stores globally — including top brands like Gymshark, Allbirds, Kylie Cosmetics, and Fashion Nova.

Good news: checking if a website uses Shopify is now extremely fast and accurate.

Below are 5 free methods, supported with real examples and live URLs you can test immediately.

⚡ Method 1: Use ShopifyOrNot.in (Instant Check in <2 Seconds)

The fastest and simplest method:

👉 https://shopifyornot.in

• https://shopifyornot.in/fashionnova.com → ✔️ Shopify Plus

🔍 Method 2: The “myshopify.com” Redirect Trick (Works 98% of the Time)

Every Shopify store has a secret base domain:

brandname.myshopify.com

Open this in your browser.

The result reveals everything.

Example tests (you can try now):

How to read results:

• Redirect or login page → Definitely Shopify
• 404 → Not Shopify (or extremely rare Plus firewall block)

Still reliable in 2025.

🧑‍💻 Method 3: View Page Source (Search for Shopify Code)

Right-click → View Page Source
Press Ctrl+F to search these terms:

• Shopify.theme
• Shopify.design_mode
• cdn.shopify.com
• checkout.shopify.com
• myshopify.com

Real-world examples:

Gymshark.com

Search: Shopify.theme
Found:
Shopify.theme = {"name":"Gymshark - Turbo v11"...}
→ Shopify confirmed.

KylieCosmetics.com

Search: checkout.shopify.com
Found dozens of matches → Shopify Plus.

FashionNova.com

Search: myshopify.com
Hidden but present → Shopify Plus.

Tesla.com

Search: Shopify
0 results → Not Shopify.

This method works even on headless stores.

🛒 Method 4: Check Cart or Checkout URL (Always Revealing)

Shopify checkout URLs follow a predictable signature.

Test these:

• https://gymshark.com/cart → Shopify
• https://allbirds.com/checkouts → Shopify checkout
• https://heatonist.com/password → Shopify password page
• https://fashionnova.com/checkouts/... → Shopify Plus checkout
• https://tesla.com/cart → Custom → Not Shopify

Note:
Shopify Plus stores can heavily customize the frontend, but checkout cannot be fully hidden.
