At a glance
The five questions that decide it.
Both tools record sessions on Shopify. The question is what you can do with what you see: tie it to an order, find the problem without watching hundreds of replays, and prove the fix made money.

|---|---|---|
| Do recordings link to the order they produced? | Yes — sessions link to their Shopify orders, and orders to the visit behind them. | Segment visitors by cart value and traffic source. |
| Is friction found for you? | Yes — a ranked list of findings, each backed by recordings. | Discovery AI answers the questions you ask it. |
| Can you see which channel is paying off? | Yes — channel revenue on every plan, multi-touch from Starter. | Marketing attribution isn't listed. |
| Can you test the fix in the same tool? | Yes — native A/B tests scored on real orders, one on Free. | Through the Optimizely integration. |

Why stores choose Ordinary
Recordings are where it starts, not where it ends.
Watching a shopper struggle is a starting point. Knowing which channel sent them, what the problem is costing, and whether your fix lifted revenue is what turns it into a decision. Lucky Orange is built for the first. Ordinary does all three.
-
Ranked friction
Sessions are read for rage clicks, dead clicks and recurring patterns, so you watch the recordings behind the top problems instead of asking questions and hoping.
-
Attribution on the same data
First-party, multi-touch attribution with ad spend from Meta, Google and more — revenue reconciled to Shopify to the cent.
-
Native A/B testing
Test the fix in the same app, scored on revenue per visitor, conversion rate and order value from real orders. No Optimizely contract required.

The verdict

Choose Lucky Orange if:
- Heatmaps, live chat and on-site surveys are the main job.
- You're on Shopify Plus and need video of your checkout pages.
- You only want to watch recordings, priced by session count.
Frequently asked
How much does Lucky Orange cost?
As of October 2026, Lucky Orange's plans are priced by monthly sessions: Build at $32/mo, Grow at $72/mo, Expand at $199/mo and Scale at $839/mo when paid annually, with Enterprise custom-priced. Build is $39/mo month-to-month. Every plan includes every feature, and there's a 7-day free trial.
How is Ordinary different from Lucky Orange?
Lucky Orange is a recording toolkit. Ordinary is an analytics and testing platform for Shopify that includes recordings: each session is linked to the order it produced, friction is ranked for you, and the same app has multi-touch attribution and native A/B testing scored on reconciled revenue — so you can see what's broken, what it's costing, and whether the fix worked.
Isn't Lucky Orange cheaper?
For recordings alone, yes — its entry plan starts at $32/mo paid annually. But attribution isn't listed, and A/B testing runs through a separate Optimizely integration. Ordinary's Advanced plan, from $149/mo, includes recordings, multi-touch attribution, profit reporting and unlimited A/B tests.
When is Lucky Orange the better choice?
When you need heatmaps, live chat and on-site surveys in one tool, or you're on Shopify Plus and need video of your checkout pages. Ordinary doesn't do heatmaps, chat or surveys, and can't record checkout as video.
Can Ordinary record Shopify checkout?
Not as video — Shopify's checkout runs on Shopify's own pages, which apps can't record visually. The video ends at the checkout boundary and Ordinary's timeline takes over, recording which checkout steps the shopper reached and whether they completed the purchase.
Which Ordinary plan includes session recordings?
Advanced, from $149/mo for stores under $250K in revenue. Stores on the Free plan can try Advanced free for 30 days, once, with no charge.

Install Ordinary from the Shopify App Store. Stores on Free can try Advanced, recordings included, free for 30 days.
