Shopify Plus stores
Plus is Shopify's enterprise tier, and the merchants on it are the ones with budgets, scale, and acquisition interest. That's why "is this store on Plus?" is the single most-requested filter we hear - and why it deserves an honest page about what the signal can and can't tell you.

Three audiences, one segment
App makers
Plus merchants pay for tooling. A reviews, subscription, or personalisation app reaching the Plus tier is reaching the stores most likely to buy and least likely to churn on price.
Agencies
Plus contracts are larger and stickier. An agency selling migration, CRO, or retention services targets Plus because one signed account is worth a dozen small ones.
Investors & M&A
Plus is a revenue-tier proxy. A buyer scanning for acquisition targets uses the Plus signal to shortlist stores big enough to matter before any deeper diligence.
Plus is inferred, and we say so
Plus has no single public flag you can read off a page. It's inferred from indirect signals: a customised checkout, Plus-only apps and scripts, and admin markers. That makes the Plus filter a confidence call, not a certified registry - and we'd rather tell you that than sell a clean-looking boolean that quietly mislabels stores.
The Plus signal is part of our secondary-fingerprint rollout. Before you rely on it, we flag how much of the base it currently covers.
"inferred" is shown on every Plus call - never hidden
Reading Plus as an M&A signal
For deal sourcing, Plus is a coarse but useful first cut: it filters out the long tail of hobby stores and leaves the merchants operating at a scale where a transaction makes sense. It isn't a financials feed - Plus tells you "big enough to look at", not revenue or EBITDA. Combined with traffic and store-age signals it sharpens a shortlist, which is exactly how the stores-for-sale deal-sourcing angle uses it. On its own, treat Plus as a screen, not a verdict.
