How do I find Shopify stores in my niche?

Call the store discovery endpoint with up to 5 niche keywords plus a language or country, and page through the results with the cursor it returns. Use the summary endpoint first to see how many stores match, then add verify=true to confirm each one is on Shopify.

Does it work for WooCommerce and other platforms?

Yes. Add platform= to the discovery or summary call: woocommerce, bigcommerce, magento, prestashop, opencart, shopware or squarespace (shopify is the default). Squarespace returns every Squarespace site, not only shops, and WooCommerce includes theme and plugin sellers that run it. The live verification is for Shopify stores only.

Can I get a full list of Shopify stores?

You can page through every store that matches a filter, up to 100 rows per call. The total is approximate: rows that are infrastructure hosts or duplicates are removed after the index counts them. Narrow the list with filters rather than downloading everything.

How many credits does a call use?

Discovery uses 4 credits plus about 0.8 per row returned (85 for a full page of 100). Verification adds about 0.2 per checked row. The summary uses 9, traffic enrichment 4 plus about 0.2 per domain, top product pages 16 and a store profile 31 (113 with monthly history). The usage endpoint is free. Wallet users pay the same amount in dollars.

What is never charged?

Sandbox requests, replays with the same Idempotency-Key, any response that is not a 200, and a source that failed to answer. A genuine empty result is charged like any other answer.

Does the API return store owner emails or phone numbers?

No. Responses carry store data only: domain, title, language, country, apps, traffic and scores. There are no contact fields, and emails, social links and formatted phone numbers are removed from titles and descriptions before a row is returned.

Does it estimate a store's revenue?

No. The API estimates monthly organic search traffic and the number of keywords a store ranks for. It does not estimate sales or revenue.

How do you know a store is on Shopify?

With verify=true each Shopify row gets a live DNS check. A store is verified only when its address or alias belongs to Shopify, and the evidence comes back with it. A store behind a proxy reads unverified, and a check that times out reads unknown. Neither is reported as not being on Shopify.

Is it an alternative to Store Leads or BuiltWith?

It covers the same first job, finding Shopify stores by market and seeing the apps they run, through an API you pay per result. It adds a live Shopify check and traffic data in the same API. It does not include contact details.

Can I test it without spending credits?

Yes. Send the header X-Sandbox: true on any endpoint. You get realistic sample stores through the real code path, with no charge and no call to the data source.

Is there a rate limit?

30 requests a minute and 600 an hour per account on each endpoint. Pace large backlogs instead of sending them in one burst.

Shopify store leads, by API

Find Shopify stores by language, country and niche, and see the apps each one runs. Confirm each one is really on Shopify with a live DNS check, then rank the list by organic traffic.

WooCommerce, BigCommerce and five more platforms too. Pay per result, from your API plan's credits or a prepaid wallet.

Try every endpoint free: send X-Sandbox: true and nothing is charged.

What is a Shopify store leads API?

A Shopify store leads API returns Shopify stores that match your filters, such as language, country and niche keywords, with the apps each store runs, so you can build a prospect list in code instead of by hand. Bishopi's version also checks that each store really runs on Shopify and adds organic traffic, authority and a 0-100 score. WooCommerce, BigCommerce and five other platforms work the same way.

From a filter to a list worth calling

Four calls take you from "every Shopify store" to a short, verified list ranked by traffic. Use them in order, or only the ones you need.

1
Find stores that match your market
GET /store_discovery/
Filter Shopify stores, or WooCommerce, BigCommerce and five more platforms with platform=, by the market you sell into. Page through them 100 rows at a time; each row lists the apps the store runs.
- 8 store platforms
- Language and country
- Backlink rank range
- Seen in the last 1 to 730 days
- Up to 5 niche keywords
2
Confirm each one is really on Shopify
verify=true
For Shopify stores, a live DNS check on every row. A store counts as verified only when its address or alias belongs to Shopify, and the evidence comes back with it.
- verified, unverified, unresolved or unknown
- The address or alias as proof
- No guess when a check times out
3
Rank the list by organic traffic
POST /store_enrich/
Send up to 100 domains at once and get estimated monthly organic traffic and ranked keywords for each.
- 100 domains per call
- Duplicates counted once
- Invalid entries returned, not charged
4
Profile the stores worth a call
GET /store_profile/ and /store_products/
Installed apps, traffic, authority, an explainable 0-100 score and the product pages that bring the most visitors.
- Score with its components
- Optional monthly traffic history
- Top product pages by traffic

Endpoints and what each call uses

Every call uses API credits from your plan. On a wallet you pay the same amount in dollars. No response contains a price: read what you have left from the free usage endpoint.

Evidence, or an honest unknown

A lead list is only as good as its worst row. These are the rules every response follows.

Unknown means unknown: When a DNS check times out, the row says unknown. It is never quietly counted as a Shopify store, or as not one.
Missing is null, not zero: A figure we could not read comes back as null, so a store with no data never looks like a store with no traffic.
Country is often blank: Only about a third of Shopify stores have a country attached. Filter by language when you need full coverage.
No contact data: Responses have no contact fields. Emails, social links and formatted phone numbers are removed from titles and descriptions.
