Shopify Cookie Consent Apps: Our Honest Position
Cookie consent is a compliance requirement for many stores, especially those selling into the EU and UK where regulations expect a clear consent banner before non-essential cookies are set. It is less about conversion and more about doing the right, lawful thing.
IncomeHero does not currently offer a dedicated cookie consent app, and we will tell you that plainly rather than overstate the library. Compliance is too important to fudge, so here is exactly where things stand and what we do cover.
What cookie consent actually requires
A compliant setup typically means presenting a consent banner, recording the shopper's choice and respecting it for non-essential cookies. The specifics depend on your jurisdiction, and getting them right is a legal matter, not a marketing one.
Because this is a compliance area, we are not going to claim a tool we have not built. A dedicated cookie consent app is the kind of focused, important feature the growing library can add over time, and we will describe it as available only once it genuinely ships.
What IncomeHero covers in the meantime
While consent itself is not yet in the library, IncomeHero handles many of the other operational essentials a store needs. InvoiceHero produces tax-compliant GST and VAT invoices, and SEOHero keeps your site technically healthy, both of which sit alongside day-to-day compliance and quality work.
These are included in every plan, from $49/mo Sidekick to $99/mo Hero and $199/mo Legend. Bundling the apps we do cover frees up budget you currently spend on standalone tools, including a dedicated consent solution if your region requires one today.
Honesty on a compliance topic
Compliance is exactly where vendors should not exaggerate. If you operate in a region with strict consent rules, you should use a purpose-built consent tool now and treat our roadmap as a future convenience rather than a current promise.
Every IncomeHero plan includes new apps as they are added, and the Legend plan at $199/mo covers all future apps automatically. If a consent app joins the library later, you will not pay extra for it on that plan.
