The 11 best Shopify brand page apps in 2026

First, decide whether you want a shop-by-brand page or a logo slider, because nine of these build the first and two build the second and they are not substitutes. A directory lets a shopper browse your catalogue by brand. A slider is a decorative row of logos you upload by hand.

If it is a directory, the free-plan question comes next. Only Easy Brand Page and Brand Page Pro A-Z have one; the other seven want a trial and a card. Then check what the app charges as you grow. Most bill a flat monthly fee whatever your brand count, but Kaleido prices by vendors, so a store carrying 120 brands pays $79.99 where a store carrying 15 pays $11.99.

On price the range is narrow: $4.50 to $11.99, with most sitting between $6 and $8. That is small enough that price should not decide it. What should decide it is whether the list keeps itself in sync with your products, and how the page behaves when a shopper on a phone opens it.

Because the brand list is not there when the page arrives. Some apps build the list into the page your theme sends out, so it is on screen the moment the page loads. Others send an empty page first, then run a small program in the shopper's browser that fetches the brands and draws them in. On a fast laptop you would never notice. On a four-year-old phone over patchy mobile data, that second trip is the difference between a brand page and a blank space with a spinner.

It shows up in search too. Google reads what came with the page first and comes back for anything added later, if it comes back. A brand directory exists partly so that someone searching your store name plus a brand name lands on your site instead of the brand's own, and that only works if the brand names are readable.

You can check any app before you commit. Install it on a test theme, open the brand page on your phone off wi-fi, and watch what happens in the first second. If the brands appear straight away, the list came with the page. If you get an empty box that fills in a beat later, it did not.

Your vendor field, on every product. A brand directory is only ever as tidy as the brand names already sitting on your products, so ten minutes in your admin now saves you an evening of confusion after you install something.

Open Products in your Shopify admin and sort by vendor. Three problems turn up in almost every store:

A brand directory with names and no logos looks like a list, and shoppers scan logos far faster than text.

Gathering 40 or 60 logos at a consistent size and on the same background is the part of this job that actually takes an evening. Start collecting them before you start comparing apps.

A free plan, if the page matters to you, because a brand directory is not a feature you can judge in an afternoon. You need a week or two of real shoppers to see whether anyone clicks it. Two of the nine directories here have free plans; the rest give you between 7 and 30 days.

A trial gives you 10 or 14 days, and the clock runs whether or not you get round to the work. Setting a brand page up properly means building it, uploading logos, adding it to your menu and giving it a week to gather some traffic. If you cannot block out those two hours inside the trial window, you will end up either paying for a month you did not test, or uninstalling something that never got a fair look.

One thing to check on any free plan is what happens when you outgrow it. Ask what the page does on the day you add the brand that takes you past the limit. Being asked to upgrade is fine and expected. Having the directory quietly stop showing brands your shoppers were already browsing is not, so find out which one it is before you build your main menu around the page.

Less than you would think on the data, more than you would think on the page itself. The brand names live on your products, in the vendor box, so a new app rebuilds the same list in minutes. Nothing you typed into Shopify is lost.

What does not come with you is everything you added inside the old app. Logos you uploaded, brand descriptions you wrote, the order you put the featured brands in, any brand you chose to hide. All of that sits in the app you are leaving, so keep your logo files in a folder on your own computer rather than treating the app as where they live.

The other cost is the address. Apps put the directory at their own page address, so switching usually means the page moves and anything pointing at the old one breaks: your menu, links from blog posts, and whatever Google has indexed. You can point the old address at the new one under Online Store, then Navigation, then URL Redirects in your admin. It takes two minutes and is the step people forget until traffic drops.
