Impact Shopify Theme Review
Last modified: July 23, 2026

Who makes the Impact Shopify theme?
Impact is built by Maestrooo, the same studio behind the Prestige theme. It sells on the Shopify Theme Store as a premium, one-time purchase. Maestrooo has a long track record of high-end Shopify themes, which is part of why Impact turns up on so many established stores in our dataset.
-
How much does the Impact Shopify theme cost?
Impact costs $400 as a one-time payment on the Shopify Theme Store. That single license covers the theme and its style presets, with no recurring fee. As with any theme, you may still pay for third-party apps on top of it, and Impact stores tend to run a fairly full app stack.
-
What presets does the Impact theme include?
Impact ships with three preset styles: Impact, Cocoon, and Balance. Each gives the same underlying theme a different look, from bold and promotion-led to calmer and more minimal. You can start from any preset and then adjust colors, fonts, and sections in the Shopify editor to match your brand.
-
Is the Impact theme good for large catalogs?
Yes. Impact is built for merchandising, with mega menus, product filtering, and flexible collection layouts that hold up as your catalog grows. In our dataset it is chosen more often by established stores with sizable product counts than by brand-new shops, which fits its feature set.
-
How fast is the Impact Shopify theme?
Theme speed depends heavily on your images, apps, and content, not just the theme itself. In our July 2026 PageSpeed Insights test of Impact’s demo store on mobile, it landed in the low-to-mid range, which is common for a feature-rich premium theme. Check the speed section above for the live scores, and keep your app stack lean to protect load times.

What is the difference between Impact and Prestige?
Both Impact and Prestige come from Maestrooo, but they aim at different stores. Prestige leans editorial and luxury, with a quieter, story-first layout, while Impact is bolder and more promotion-driven, with built-in banners and conversion tools. If you are weighing the two, our Impact vs Prestige comparison breaks down presets, features, and use cases side by side.
