Both Addify ‑ Approve New Customers and Singleton | Verify Customers aim to give Shopify merchants more control over customer access. Addify positions itself around creating an exclusive community through manual review, particularly for customer segments identified by tags (B2B, wholesalers, etc.). It focuses on streamlining the registration process for specific customer types. Singleton, on the other hand, is geared towards controlling which customers see pricing and purchase options, providing an additional layer of access control for sensitive products or pricing strategies. Singleton’s strength lies in its ability to hide product information from unapproved users and its flexible custom registration form. The core difference lies in their primary focus: Addify emphasizes customer segmentation and tailored experiences during registration with tag-based validation and selection, while Singleton focuses on controlling access to product information and purchase options post-registration. Addify is better suited for merchants who want to onboard different customer types with specific needs. Singleton is a better fit for stores that need to restrict access to sensitive pricing or products, or require extensive customer data during signup through custom form fields.

For merchants prioritizing segmented customer experiences and smoother registration flows tailored to different customer types (B2B, wholesalers), Addify ‑ Approve New Customers is likely the better choice. The tag-based validation and dropdown functionality allow for a more personalized onboarding experience. However, due to the significantly lower number of reviews compared to Singleton, proceed with caution and conduct thorough testing.
If the primary goal is to restrict access to pricing and products, and the ability to gather extensive customer data during registration is important, Singleton | Verify Customers is the stronger option. Its ability to hide content and offer custom form fields provides greater control over who sees what. The higher number of reviews also indicates greater user adoption and, potentially, reliability. However, if you specifically need to pre-approve customers based on specific tags that they apply to themselves, Addify will work slightly better. It's important to balance your preference for product features with a desire for stability and robust testing.
Both can be useful for B2B stores, but Addify's tag-based validation during registration might be more suitable for segmenting different B2B tiers. Singleton excels at restricting access to pricing if needed.
Yes, but in different ways. Addify allows customers to select from predefined tags, while Singleton allows for adding unlimited custom fields to the form.
Singleton | Verify Customers offers more direct control over product access by hiding prices and 'add to cart' buttons for unapproved customers.
Both apps provide email notifications. Addify specifies customizable emails for both admins and customers, while Singleton only mentions automated emails to the admin upon new customer registration.
Ease of use is subjective and depends on individual needs. However, Singleton's higher number of reviews may suggest a more mature and user-friendly interface, but a trial of each is recommended. Addify also appears fairly simple given the focus on approvals and email
