Buyer's guide
By Matt Smith · Updated July 2026
For Shopify sellers, Aircall ($30/user/mo annual) and CloudTalk ($19/user/mo annual) have native Shopify apps that pop order history on ring. Quo (formerly OpenPhone, $15/user/mo) is the cheapest option, but it leans on Zapier for order context. wlur syncs Shopify natively at $15/user/mo, live now with a 7-day free trial.
Most "best phone system for Shopify" pages just list generic VoIP tools. They assume the Shopify part sorts itself out. It doesn't. A handful of providers built a native Shopify app for it. That app pulls order history, tags and shipping status onto the screen when a customer calls. The rest hook up through Zapier, a Chrome extension, or nothing at all.
That distinction matters more than the marketing copy suggests. Say you're fielding "where's my order" calls all day. A Zapier bridge logs a call as a note five minutes after it ends. That's not the same as a card that pops with the order number while the phone is still ringing. This list ranks on that gap, not on general VoIP features.
We checked each provider's own integrations page and app marketplace listing for Shopify specifically, in July 2026. That means we looked past generic "e-commerce" or "CRM" claims. Where a native Shopify app exists, we noted what data it surfaces: order history, tags, shipping. We also noted what still needs a Zapier zap to replicate.
Pricing is desk research from public pricing pages, quoted per user per month at the entry tier unless stated. We haven't run every tool against a live Shopify store ourselves. Treat the integration depth claims as accurate as of the vendor's own documentation, dated below.
| Tool | Best for | Entry price | Seat minimum | Standout |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Aircall | Native Shopify order pop | $30/user/mo (annual) | 3 | Card shows order history and tracking as the call rings |
| Shopify contact sync | $19/user/mo (annual) | 1 | Auto-imports Shopify customers, logs calls as notes | |
| Cheapest solid option | $15/user/mo | 1 | Simple shared inbox, Zapier for order context | |
| Sales-heavy stores | $29/user/mo | 2 | Chrome extension against Shopify admin, no native app | |
| AI call summaries | $15/user/mo (annual) | 1 | AI notes and transcripts, Zapier for Shopify data | |
| Stores already on RingCentral UC | $20-30/user/mo | 1 | App marketplace has a Shopify connector, setup is fiddly | |
| Solo sellers, no CRM needs | $14-80/mo flat | n/a | Flat pricing, but zero CRM or Shopify sync | |
| Native Shopify sync, live now | $15/user/mo | 0 | Two-way Shopify sync, live now |
The only provider here where a Shopify order card reliably appears before you've said hello.
Aircall's Shopify integration matches the caller's number to a Shopify customer record. It shows name, email, recent orders and tracking, right in the Aircall app as the phone rings. That's per Aircall's own integration page. Setup is a few clicks from the dashboard, no developer needed.
It's built for support and sales teams who take a high volume of order-status calls. They need context instantly, not after a Zapier delay. Reviewers on G2 say the setup is quick, but that the mobile app's Shopify card is less complete than desktop.
Honest cons
A close second to Aircall on Shopify depth, and cheaper if you're a single seller.
CloudTalk added a native Shopify integration that imports customers automatically. It pulls order status and shipping details into the contact profile. It also logs every call and SMS as a note on that record, per CloudTalk's Shopify page. One-click dialing from inside a Shopify profile is included.
Its incoming-call popup with order data isn't quite as polished as Aircall's, but it's close. The 1-seat minimum makes it workable for a single founder answering the phone between fulfilling orders.
Honest cons
No native Shopify app, but the cheapest entry price and a genuinely good shared-inbox experience.
Quo doesn't have a dedicated Shopify integration. Getting order data onto a call means wiring up Zapier to pull order details into a contact note. That works, but it adds a small setup lift and a delay versus a true native popup.
What you get instead is one of the best-reviewed shared inboxes in this list (G2 4.7, 3,000+ reviews). It's $15/user/month with no seat minimum. That matters if you're a two-person Shopify store, not a 20-agent support floor.
Honest cons
Strong dialer and CRM reach, but Shopify context comes from a Chrome extension, not a native app.
JustCall has no dedicated Shopify app in its marketplace as of July 2026. Getting order context on a call typically means running the JustCall Chrome extension alongside the Shopify admin tab. It can also mean building a Zapier workflow, per third-party integration guides.
Where it earns its place is outbound: predictive dialers, plus SMS and WhatsApp in one thread. It also logs calls out of the box to Salesforce, HubSpot or Pipedrive. That's useful if your Shopify store also runs a CRM for wholesale or B2B accounts.
Honest cons
Excellent AI transcription, but Shopify data still needs a Zapier bridge.
Dialpad's strength is its AI layer: live transcription, automatic call summaries and coaching notes. That's genuinely useful when a support rep needs a fast recap instead of a manual note. It has no native Shopify app, though. Order data has to come in via Zapier, or a helpdesk tool like Gorgias sitting in between.
Dialpad's AI summaries can work well layered on top of Gorgias or Zendesk. That's if your Shopify store already uses one of those for support. As a standalone Shopify phone system, though, it's less direct than Aircall or CloudTalk.
Honest cons
A Shopify connector exists in the app marketplace, but it's built for enterprise UC buyers, not Shopify sellers first.
RingCentral's app marketplace lists a Shopify connector. But it's one of hundreds of integrations in a platform built for enterprise unified communications. Video, team messaging and phone all bundle together. Setup and admin overhead reflect that scope.
Say your business already runs on RingCentral for video and messaging, and Shopify is secondary. Then the connector is a reasonable extra. But if Shopify calls are your main use case, the other options here are more direct.
Honest cons
Cheap and simple, but there's no CRM or Shopify sync at all, so order context never reaches the phone.
Grasshopper is a virtual number layered on your existing mobile, with flat account pricing and no per-user fees. It has no CRM integration and no Shopify app of any kind, per Grasshopper's own feature list. It fits sellers who just want a separate business line, not order-aware calling.
For a very early Shopify store, that gap may not matter. That's true if the owner answers every call personally and already knows their customers. Once support gets busy enough to need order context on the fly, Grasshopper won't provide it.
Honest cons
wlur is our product, so grade this entry accordingly. Two-way Shopify sync is live today.
wlur is our product, so grade this entry accordingly. Two-way Shopify sync is live now, alongside HubSpot, Salesforce and Pipedrive. Order data attaches to a contact automatically, instead of through a Zapier workaround.
Pricing is $15/user/month (£12.50, €14) with no seat minimum. That undercuts Aircall's and CloudTalk's seat floors for small Shopify teams. There's a 7-day free trial with no card required, so you can verify the sync yourself.
Honest cons
At 1 user: Quo runs $15/month flat. Aircall's 3-seat minimum means a solo seller pays $90/month even alone, the seat floor rather than the per-user price. CloudTalk's 1-seat minimum puts it at $19/month, closer to what a single founder actually needs.
At 3 users: Aircall is $90/month (3 x $30, right at its floor). CloudTalk is $57/month (3 x $19). Quo is $45/month (3 x $15). JustCall's 2-seat minimum doesn't bite here; it's $87/month (3 x $29).
At 8 users: Aircall is $240/month. CloudTalk is $152/month. Quo is $120/month. JustCall is $232/month. The gap between the cheapest and priciest native-integration options widens to $120/month at this size. It's worth running through a calculator with your own call volume.
Team phone cost calculator →No. Shopify doesn't include calling. You need a separate VoIP provider that either has a native Shopify app or connects via Zapier.
Aircall and CloudTalk both have native Shopify apps that surface order history and shipping data on calls. That's per their own integration pages as of July 2026.
Most providers, including Quo, JustCall and Dialpad, support Zapier as a workaround for Shopify data. It adds setup time and a slight delay versus a native popup, though.
It depends on call volume. If you rarely need order context mid-call, a cheaper tool like Quo can work fine with occasional manual lookups.
Most sellers do, both for professionalism and so support calls don't ring a personal device. Every provider here includes at least one business number.
Quo (formerly OpenPhone) at $15/user/month with no seat minimum is the cheapest solid option. It relies on Zapier rather than a native Shopify app, though.
Yes, but reviewers note the mobile app's order card shows less detail than the desktop version.
Most providers support number porting. Check each provider's porting process and expected timeline before switching, to avoid a gap in service.
JustCall and Quo both support SMS threads alongside calls. Grasshopper's and RingCentral's SMS support varies by plan.
Yes. wlur is our product, live today, with a 7-day free trial and no card required. Shopify sync works now, alongside HubSpot, Salesforce and Pipedrive. Weigh our ownership of the product against its shorter review history.
Aircall charges $6/month per extra number, Quo charges $5/month, and Grasshopper charges $9/month. That's as of each provider's July 2026 pricing page.
Many stores use both. A helpdesk like Gorgias handles tickets and chat. A phone system like Aircall or CloudTalk handles calls. Sometimes the two work together.
