How it works

How does Cosmo work?

Cosmo is a Shopify app with two modules. Customer Account replaces the default account page with a branded self-service portal, and Loyalty & Rewards adds a points or cashback program with VIP tiers and rewards. You install it from the Shopify App Store, set the portal up in 4 guided steps inside Shopify admin — about 5–10 minutes, with no theme code and no developer — and run both modules from that same admin.

The short version

  1. Install it

    from the Shopify App Store, into the admin you already work in.

  2. 4 guided steps

    in Shopify admin. No theme code, no developer.

  3. Customers self-serve

    in a branded account page, and earn rewards on Premium and Elite.

The mechanism

What actually changes when you install it?

Cosmo is a Shopify app, not a separate site alongside your store. Customer Account replaces the account page Shopify already gives you, Loyalty & Rewards adds a rewards program to your storefront, and both read the data Shopify already holds — from one install, one admin and one Shopify bill.

  • Customer Account replaces the account page you already have

    Shopify's own customer account shows a list of past orders and a saved address. Customer Account replaces that page with a branded self-service portal inside your theme, where shoppers track, cancel and reorder orders, keep a saved cart and see their store credit.

    Included in every plan

  • Loyalty & Rewards adds a rewards program to your storefront

    Customers earn points, or store credit if you run cashback, for orders and nine other actions, and spend them on discounts, free shipping, store credit or gift cards. They see it in a floating rewards launcher, on product and cart pages and on the thank-you page.

    Included in Premium and Elite

  • Both read Shopify's own data, not a copy of it

    Store credit balances and cashback live in Shopify's native store credit, so the balance a shopper sees is the balance that applies at checkout. Custom profile fields are stored as Shopify customer metafields, which keeps that data queryable from Shopify itself.

  • It brings the apps you already run in with it

    Cosmo reads data from 9 third-party Shopify apps — tracking, wishlist, reviews and subscriptions — and shows it inside the same account page, so the shopper is not redirected to another site and does not sign in a second time.

Do I need a developer to set it up?

No. Cosmo installs from the Shopify App Store and the account portal is set up through a 4-step guided flow inside Shopify admin: choose which account features to switch on, match the portal to your storefront's branding, and publish the customer account page — about 5–10 minutes. Loyalty & Rewards is configured from the same admin, and its product-page widget is added as a block in the theme editor. No theme files are edited and nothing is pasted into your code, so neither needs a developer or an agency.

The steps are guided, not automatic:

Most of those 5–10 minutes go on two decisions no app can make for you — which account features you want switched on, and how closely the portal should match your storefront's branding. A loyalty program adds a few more: what customers earn, and what your rewards cost. None of them needs code. All of them need you.

Setup

What happens in the 4 setup steps?

Cosmo is set up through a four-step guided flow in Shopify admin — no theme code to edit and no developer required. The whole flow takes about 5–10 minutes.

Loyalty & Rewards

How does the loyalty program run once it is on?

Three things happen in a loop. Customers earn points, or store credit if you run cashback, for orders and actions. What they earn moves them up VIP tiers that multiply it. They spend points on rewards you set the price of. Included in Premium and Elite, from $11.99 a month.

    1. Customers earn

    Customers earn on every order (a fixed amount, a percentage of the order, or an amount per dollar spent), with optional bonuses for a first order and for products or collections you pick. They also earn for creating an account, completing their profile, adding a birthday, joining your newsletter, referring a friend and following you on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, X or YouTube.

    Order points land when the order is fulfilled, on the subtotal after discounts, and are reversed on a cancellation or refund

    2. They move up VIP tiers

    Create up to 10 VIP tiers that customers reach through what they earn over time. Each tier can multiply the points earned on orders and pay a one-time bonus on arrival, and a member's tier never drops.

    Members see their tier and progress in the launcher

    3. They spend it on rewards

    Customers spend points on a fixed-amount discount code, a percentage-off code, free shipping, store credit or a Shopify gift card. You set what each reward costs and the minimum to redeem.

    Rewards expire after 90 days; Elite sets custom expiry and points expiry after inactivity

Once it is live

Where does Cosmo show up after you publish it?

In three places. Customer Account lives in the account page, Loyalty & Rewards meets customers across your storefront, and everything you manage sits in Shopify admin.

  • In the account page

    What your shoppers do for themselves

    A signed-in shopper handles all of this inside the branded account page, so none of it starts as a message to you.

    • Custom sign-up form
    • Self-service order editing
    • Profile, addresses and custom fields
    • Self-service order cancellation
    • One-click reorder
    • Order tracking
    • Store credit balance
    • Saved cart

    Where customers meet their rewards

    Loyalty & Rewards is not confined to the account page. It shows customers what they have and what they will earn where they are already shopping.

    • Rewards launcher and account tab
    • Points on product and cart pages
    • Thank-you page and checkout

    What you see on your side

    Everything you manage sits in Shopify admin, next to the setup flow and the billing. There is no separate dashboard to sign in to and no second account to create.

    • Branding, tabs and navigation
    • Account analytics
    • Members and loyalty analytics
    • Billing, on your regular Shopify invoice
    • Cancellation, at any time, from your Shopify admin

    Both modules

Which of these your store gets depends on the plan you are on — the comparison table lists what each tier includes.

What is Cosmo?

Cosmo is a Shopify app from Cosmo Apps with two modules. Customer Account turns the account page into a branded self-service portal for orders, cancellations, reorders, saved carts and store credit. Loyalty & Rewards runs a points or cashback program with referrals, VIP tiers and rewards. Merchants install it from the Shopify App Store and pay one monthly plan through Shopify.

How do I install Cosmo?

Install it from the Shopify App Store listing, then follow the 4-step guided setup inside Shopify admin: choose which account features to switch on, match the portal to your storefront's branding, and publish the customer account page. Everything happens inside Shopify — there is no separate account to create and no code to paste into your theme.

How long does setup take?

About 5–10 minutes. Most of that is deciding which account features you want switched on and matching the portal's colours to your storefront — the 4 steps run one after the other in Shopify admin with no developer step in between.

Do I need to edit theme code?

No. Cosmo is set up from Shopify admin, and the product-page rewards widget is added as a block in the theme editor. No theme files are edited and no developer is needed.

When do customers earn points, and what happens on a refund?

Order points are awarded when the order is fulfilled, calculated on the subtotal after discounts and excluding shipping and tax. If the order is cancelled or refunded, the points it earned are reversed. Points for actions such as signing up, a birthday or a referral are awarded when that action happens.

Where is my customer data stored?

Custom profile fields are stored as native Shopify metafields on the customer record, which means the data stays queryable from Shopify itself and does not become stranded in a third-party system if you ever uninstall the app.
