Frequently Bought Together, by Code Black Belt, is the Amazon-style product recommender for Shopify. It drops a "Frequently bought together" block on the product page, learns from the store's own order history, and suggests items that regularly sell together. Manual bundles, product-specific rules, and bundle discounts sit on top of the AI recommendations, so a merchant can override anything the algorithm surfaces.
It is one of the older names in Shopify's upsell and cross-sell category, and most stores use it for a single job: lifting average order value on the product page. Installation is theme-agnostic. The widget renders automatically once the app is authorized, with placement, styling, and translations configurable to match the storefront. A free tier covers small catalogs; paid plans layer in bundle pricing, analytics, and higher order volume.
Where it fits: Long-lived name in Shopify's cross-sell space. If a merchant has been running a store for a few years they've probably tried it, and the app's staying power in the category is its own signal.
The trade-off: Right tool for a specific job. It is a product-page cross-sell widget, not a full personalization engine. Stores weighing it against Rebuy or LimeSpot should treat FBT as the lighter, more focused option.
Ideal store: A catalog with enough related SKUs and an existing order history for the AI to learn from. Bundling makes natural sense in the vertical (apparel accessories, cosmetics kits, complementary hardware). A brand-new store will see generic recommendations for the first few weeks until the model has orders to train on.
Before you commit: The upside lives on the product page. Placement matters. A widget parked below the fold on mobile earns almost nothing, and merchants who want the AOV lift should test position before judging performance.

How this data works
This figure comes from live detection: we scan Shopify storefronts and read the apps each one runs, then express it as a share of the 3,500,000+ stores in our dataset. It is a share of every store in our dataset, not just recently scanned stores, so it moves more slowly than the month-over-month figures on our trends page. We report what is currently detected, not historical installs or Theme Store / App Store counts.
Independent by design: rankings are determined solely by live detection data. Affiliate relationships never affect what ranks or how stores are counted. Read the full methodology →
