Beacon is free for every Shopify store and connects WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram, and any chat link you run, with no credit card required.

Free for every Shopify store

A chat launcher your shoppers already know how to use

Beacon adds one launcher to your storefront that hands shoppers straight to WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram, or any chat link you run. Pick your channels, set the colour and greeting, add your agents, and it looks like it was built in-house, because you built it. No plan, no seats, no trial clock, just free.

Everything on this page is free

Every channel, every appearance setting, every agent you add. No shopper limit, no message limit, no trial that runs out.

  • Unlimited WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram, and custom channels
  • Up to four WhatsApp agents, each with their own greeting
  • Full appearance control: colour, logo, greeting, notice banner
  • Turn it on or off from the theme editor, any time

Later, we plan to add one optional paid plan that removes the small “Powered by Beacon” mark from the launcher. Everything else on this page, every channel and every setting, stays free.

Every channel your shoppers already have open

Turn on the channels that fit your store and let shoppers pick. No shopper installs anything new.

Make your own launcher, not a stock widget

Everything a shopper sees is yours to set: the action colour, your header logo, the greeting text, the intro line, and where the launcher sits on the page. Change it from the Shopify admin with a live preview, no developer needed, and no plan required.

  • Brand colour, logo, and launcher icon
  • Custom greeting and intro copy, or turn them off
  • Per-channel headers and descriptions
  • An optional notice banner for announcements

Live in one click, no theme code

Install the app, enable the Beacon Assistant embed in your theme editor once, and the launcher appears on every page of your store.

  • No theme code to edit. Turn on one app embed and you are done. Disable it the same way.
  • Works with your theme. The launcher is a fixed overlay, so it never fights your store's layout.
  • Built for support teams. Add multiple WhatsApp agents so shoppers reach the right person.
