We spend most of our time on this blog talking about what we build. Today is a bit different: it is about who we are building alongside.
Tripster Developers, the agency behind the Miko app ecosystem, has entered a partnership with Qikify, a Shopify app maker known for its conversion and average-order-value tools. Starting today, Qikify is featured on our new Partner Directory, and both Tripster Developers Shopify Experts and Miko are featured on Qikify’s own partner channels. We looked at each other’s products, recognized real value for the merchants we both serve, and decided to grow together, pointing our audiences at each other because the fit is genuine.
Who is Qikify?
Qikify builds a suite of Shopify apps focused on the parts of the store that move average order value: the product page, the cart, and checkout. Six apps make up their current lineup, each solving a specific piece of that puzzle.
- Qikify Upsell & Cross-sell: BOGO, Buy X Get Y, and Frequently Bought Together bundles, plus cart and checkout upsells.
- Qikify Slide Cart Drawer: A sticky add-to-cart drawer with upsell recommendations and a free-shipping progress bar.
- Qikify Checkout Customizer: Custom fields, content blocks, and upsell offers added directly to Shopify checkout, no code required.
- Mysbox Mystery Boxes & Bundles: Gamified mystery boxes with configurable odds and unboxing animations.
- Qikify Custom Product Options: 25+ custom option types (swatches, uploads, date pickers) beyond Shopify’s native variant limit.
- Qikify Volume Discounts Bundle: Quantity breaks, tiered pricing, and mix-and-match bundle discounts.
Every one of those apps is now listed with full detail on our Partner Directory, using the exact descriptions and feature lists Qikify provided us. If you run a Shopify store and any of that sounds like a gap in your current setup, that page is the place to start.
Who is Tripster Developers / Miko?
For readers landing here from the Qikify side of this partnership: Tripster Developers has been a certified Shopify Plus Expert agency since 2016, working with over 4,000 merchants worldwide. Alongside custom theme and app development work, we publish our own product line under the Miko name, four apps live on the Shopify App Store today:
- Miko Loyalty & Rewards: Native points, VIP tiers, and checkout-embedded rewards, built on Shopify Checkout Extensions.
- Miko B2B Wholesale House: Customer-group pricing, NET payment terms, and CSV purchase-order automation, no Shopify Plus required.
- Miko AI: RFM segmentation, churn prediction, and Claude-powered plain-English action recommendations.
- Miko Product Rentals: Native rental booking with live availability, deposits, and automated emails.
Where Qikify’s apps focus on lifting the transaction in front of you, Miko’s apps focus on what happens after: turning that transaction into a repeat customer, a wholesale account, or a rental relationship.
How this actually helps our customers
A partnership like this only means something if it is useful to the merchant on the receiving end, not just convenient for the two companies involved. Here is the honest version of why this pairing makes sense.
A Shopify store running Qikify’s upsell, cart, and checkout tools is actively working to increase the size of every order. A store running Miko Loyalty is working to bring that same customer back for a second, third, and tenth order. Neither app does the other’s job. Run them together and you are optimizing both sides of the same funnel: bigger orders today, more repeat orders over time.
The same logic applies across the rest of the Miko lineup. A wholesale buyer that Qikify’s volume discount app nudges into a bigger order is exactly the kind of account Miko B2B Wholesale House is built to manage long-term. A customer segment that Miko AI flags as trending toward “Champion” status is a good candidate for the kind of cart and checkout upsells Qikify specializes in.
Neither company changed a single line of product code to make this true. It was already true. The partnership is us being honest about it publicly, in both directions, with real tracked links so we can each see whether it is actually working.
What’s next
This is the first partnership listed on our new Partner Program, and it will not be the last. We are actively growing both our Tech Partner directory (Shopify app makers, like Qikify) and our Agency Partner directory (other Shopify agencies), always on the same principle: we only list what we would genuinely recommend to our own merchants.
Frequently asked questions
What is the Miko x Qikify partnership?
Tripster Developers (Miko) and Qikify have entered a partnership. Each company features the other on its Shopify partner directory, with tracked links so both sides can measure real reach, clicks, and conversions.
Does this partnership change how Miko apps work?
No. Miko Loyalty, Miko B2B Wholesale House, Miko AI, and Miko Product Rentals work exactly as they do today. This is a marketing and referral partnership, not a technical integration between the two companies’ apps.
Can I use Miko and Qikify apps together on the same store?
Yes. Both are independent Shopify apps installed the normal way through the App Store, and they cover different parts of the funnel, so there is no conflict running them side by side.
