For Shopify stores selling yard signs, banners and rigid signage
One Sign Costs $63. 25 Cost $8 Each.
Both prices are right. The first sign carries the whole setup, and by the twenty-fifth there’s almost none left to carry.
That’s not a percentage discount. It’s a table.
Appify prices signs the way your rate card already does. Size down one axis, run length across the other, substrate and sides on top. The number moves while they choose.

Why the search took this long
Six Things Signs Need That Most Options Apps Don’t Do
If you’ve tried one and gone back to quoting by email, it stalled on one of these.
Quantity breaks that aren’t percentages
A yard sign run drops from $63 to $8 by 25 units, and to $2.52 at 1,000. Banners flatten out between 22% and 31% off at 10. Two different curves, and neither is a flat percentage.
Per square foot is wrong at both ends
At a run of 100, an 18 by 12 sign costs $2.21 a square foot. A 48 by 96 costs $1.09. Same material, half the rate. A flat area formula gets both ends wrong.
A second side costs more as the run grows
Printing both sides adds about 17% at 48 signs and over 40% at 1,000. Setup spreads out, so what’s left is the extra print pass itself. A flat add-on is wrong at both ends.
The customer designs it on the page
A sign is artwork before it’s a product. If they can’t lay out the text and drop their logo on at the real size, you’re building it for them over email.
The proof gets approved before it prints
Signs are printed once. An approved proof on the order is the difference between a job that goes straight to press and a reprint you absorb.
The second order should be one tap
Another location, next season, a replacement after a storm. Signs come back, and rebuilding the same spec every time is where the repeat sale leaks.
What your sales reports don’t show you
The Orders You Never Knew You Lost
None of these turn up in a report. The customer never complains, they just don’t come back.
The realtor who needed twenty signs by Friday
They found your page, saw “request a quote”, and ordered from a national printer in four minutes. Your quote went out on Monday.
→ A price on the page, at the run length they actually wantThe custom size you didn’t offer
They needed 30 by 40. Your dropdown had 24 by 36 and 48 by 24. They left rather than ask, and you never saw the request.
→ Any size they type, priced from your own tableThe small run you sold at a loss
Your rate is per square foot, so a batch of 18 by 12 signs priced like a billboard. You made them anyway, and the margin quietly went missing.
→ A table where the small sizes carry their real rateThe rush job nobody charged for
“Need by Friday” arrived in the notes field. Production expedited it. The two-day tier is worth 50% and none of it reached the invoice.
→ Turnaround as a priced option, not a noteThe file that printed like mush
They paid for a four foot banner and uploaded a logo saved off a web page. Nobody looked until it was on the press.
→ Artwork uploaded, previewed and approved before it printsThe reorder that became a support ticket
“Same signs as last spring.” Nobody can find the artwork, the size, or which stake they had.
→ Past orders come back whole, artwork attachedNone of these show up in analytics, so none of them ever make it onto a list to fix. They just keep happening. Install Appify, build your hardest product first, and you’ll know inside a week which of them were costing you.
What Lands on the Order
Not a size in a notes field and an email attachment. Everything production needs to run it.
Reorder and cart recovery
Buying It Again Shouldn’t Mean Building It Again
Signage is seasonal and it repeats. Campaigns, open houses, events, store openings. The same customer wants the same sign with one line changed, and right now that’s a support ticket rather than an order.
It All Comes Back With It
Would you rather just go and use it?
Our Shopify demo store runs a real yard sign configurator. Change the run length and watch the per-unit price collapse. Nothing to install and no signup.

Eight questions that rule out an app in two minutes
Every app lists the same features. Swatches, text fields, uploads, conditional logic.
That list tells you nothing. What separates them is the pricing underneath.
Ask these before you install the next one, Appify included.
- Can it calculate a price, or only add prices up? Totalling add-ons is easy. Reading a size by quantity cell, multiplying for the substrate, adding a stake and applying rush as a percentage at once is math.
- Can the price come out of a table you paste in? Sign pricing is a grid: size down one axis, run length across the other. A 12 by 18 at 50 and a 48 by 24 at 1,000 each read their own cell.
- Can an option’s price change with the run? Double sided is about 17% more at 48 and over 40% at 1,000. Setup spreads out and the second print pass is what’s left. A flat add-on is wrong at both ends.
- Can the options change with the material? A stake pushes into the flutes of corrugated plastic. Pick PVC and the stake should disappear and a frame should take its place, before anyone orders the wrong one.
- Can a customer order a size that isn’t on your list? Stock sizes cover most of it. The custom cut is often the profitable one, and it needs a real measurement rather than another dropdown entry.
- Does a fee stay a fee when the quantity goes up? A $35 artwork setup charge on a run of 250 should be $35, not $8,750. Ask directly. You only find out after you’ve built the product.
- Can the customer design the product, and can you limit what they change? Three things get sold under one name. An overlay on your product photo is a personalizer. Crop and filter on an upload is an image editor. A designer is a real artboard, sized by their own measurements, with cut lines and a print-ready file at the end.
- Can a customer reorder, and does an abandoned cart come back whole? Shopify’s own Buy again drops every option, so a wrong order lands in the cart looking right. Recovery emails do the same.
Eight yeses is rare. Take the list to whichever app you look at next and get an answer to each one before you commit to it. Or get started with Appify and stop searching.
You Might Be Wondering
“This sounds technical. I don't write formulas.”
Most merchants here don’t. A quantity price list is a table you paste in, not a formula you write. Describe the rest in plain language and the AI builds it. Support will do the awkward part with you.
“My banner and yard sign pricing work completely differently.”
They do, and that’s expected. Banners are area-priced, yard signs are per-unit against a quantity table. Both are setups in the same app, not a compromise between the two.
“Customers upload terrible artwork.”
The designer can ask for the file on the page, show it at size with bleed and safe zones, and hold a proof the customer approves before anything prints.
“I already have an options app.”
For options, most work fine. Can yours read a size by quantity table, change the double-sided uplift with the run, and refuse a stake on aluminium? If that happens in a spreadsheet, that’s the part this replaces.
“Will this slow my product pages down?”
No. Options load with the page and add to cart natively, without a separate cart flow or a third-party checkout.
“How do I know it fits my products before installing?”
Go and use it. Our Shopify demo store runs a real sign configurator, so you can move the run length and watch the price as a customer would, before you install anything.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can it price from a size by quantity table?
Yes. Two-dimensional pricing tables let a 12 by 18 at 50 units and a 48 by 24 at 1,000 each read their own cell, rather than sharing one percentage discount.
Can customers order a custom size?
Yes. Width and height can be typed in and priced from your rate, so you aren’t limited to the sizes you built as variants.
Can quantity breaks be steep at the low end?
Yes. Signage prices drop very fast over the first few tiers, and a table reproduces that exactly rather than smoothing it into a flat percentage.
Can the double-sided charge change with quantity?
Yes. It can be a multiplier that varies by tier, which matches how the cost actually behaves as setup amortises across a longer run.
Can I stop options that don't physically work together?
Yes. Grommets and pole pockets can be made mutually exclusive, and a stake can be limited to corrugated substrates so it never appears on aluminium.
Can I charge rush as a percentage?
Yes. Turnaround can lift the whole job by a percentage rather than adding a flat fee, and each tier can carry its own rate.
Can customers upload and approve their artwork?
Yes. The Product Designer accepts uploads, shows bleed and safe zones at true size, and can hold a proof the customer approves before production.
What files does production receive?
Orders can carry the measurements, all selections, an approved proof PNG, a print-ready file with bleed and a cut-line SVG.
Does this create extra variants in my store?
No. Options and pricing live outside the variant system, so no size or quantity combination becomes another SKU.
Do I need to know how to write formulas?
No. A price list is pasted in as a table. For everything else, describe your pricing in plain language and the AI-assisted setup writes it.
Can I edit without customers seeing a broken page?
Yes. Work in draft and publish when you’re ready. Every publish saves a version and you can restore an older one at any time.
What does it cost?
From $39 per month with a 14-day free trial. The price scales with calculator usage, and monthly AI credits are included. Partner development stores are free.
