Loadout: a new theme for the Builder and for code New

Loadout is a theme for stores that sell game accounts, boosts, keys and gift codes. It is dark, free, and looks the same in both ways to build a store.

In the Builder
Install Loadout from the Theme Store and edit it with blocks, like every other theme.
As code
Start a code storefront from the Loadout template and own the React source. Shoppex builds and hosts it for you.
Loadout, page by pageHome, 1 of 11
Loadout home from top to bottom: the Ambient art hero with game chips, Browse the shop and three product tiles, the stats strip, Browse by game with shelves for Valorant, Fortnite, Discord and Streaming, What buyers say with ratings and reviews, and the footer

The whole home page: one shelf per game with sub-categories, from-prices and Notify me on sold-out products.

Shelves per game
Every category gets its own shelf. The Games menu opens a panel of category tiles.
Art or logo
Shoppex tells artwork from logos. Logos sit on a plate instead of being cropped, and products without a picture show their initials.
Four looks, readable colours
Pick Blaze, Volt, Ion or Plasma, then change the accent, background, text colour and card corners. Loadout refuses colour pairs that make text hard to read.
Three hero styles
Ambient art, Shelf wall or Spotlight drop. Spotlight drop puts one product on a lit stage with a live stock, restock or countdown chip.
Loadout hero styles and looksAmbient art, 1 of 4
Loadout in the orange Blaze look with the Ambient art hero: blurred artwork lights the hero, with three product tiles next to the headline

Ambient art, the default, in Blaze.

The Default theme, rebuilt Improved

Default, page by pageHome, 1 of 10
Default home from top to bottom: the Dot grid hero with the shop stats, Explore our products with category chips, a sort menu and the product grid, Why Choose Us, the FAQ, About Respawn and the footer

The whole home page: hero, the product grid with filters and sort, FAQ and footer.

New
Fill material
Raised surfaces, no borders, one accent colour. You pick a few colours, and Default works out every other shade while keeping text readable.
New
Seven Theme presets
Minimal Dark, Emerald SaaS, Warm Creator, Bold Commerce, Mono Editorial, Ocean Light and Rose Paper. One click styles the whole store, and you can still change any colour.
New
Six hero styles
Each style draws its own background and leaves your text and buttons alone.
Improved
Product page
Options as rows or tiles, up to eight rows of your own facts and five related products. The discount badge only shows when there is a real discount.
Improved
Search, cart and account
Search finds products and categories from the keyboard. On a phone the cart opens as a bottom sheet. Signed-in buyers see Account in the header.
New
Categories page
Every live Default store now has a /categories page with a tile for each category.
Default hero styles, each in a different Theme presetDot grid, 1 of 6
Default theme with the Dot grid hero: violet filled cells behind the headline, the shop stats and the product grid below

Dot grid, the default: dots, filled cells and an optional pinned product card.

Storefront

New
Category pages
Every category gets its own page with breadcrumbs and tiles for its sub-categories, on every theme. Pick a Parent category to nest them, up to 3 levels, and edit each slug.
New
Legal pages
Terms, privacy, refund, shipping, cookies, imprint and withdrawal, on every theme. Write them under Settings › Legal Pages and choose which ones the footer links.
New
Cookie banner
Buyers pick Accept all, Reject all or Customize. Analytics, marketing and chat tags load only after they agree, and Google tags get the choice through Consent Mode v2. The banner speaks 16 languages. Set it up under Settings › Cookie Banner.
New
Four new blocks
Discord Server shows your server with live member and online counts and a Join server button. Vouch Wall shows buyers’ written reviews. Purchase Ticker shows your latest sales, never the buyer. Status Chips show a status you set, like Undetected or Updating.
New on every themeCategory page, 1 of 3
Default category page for Valorant: the breadcrumb Home, Valorant, the title with 12 products, three sub-category tiles Accounts, Boosting and Points with pictures and product counts, and the first products below

A category page with its sub-categories, here in Default.

Faster stores, checkout and dashboard Faster

Builder stores used to load one script for everything. Now every page loads a small core first, and the cart, search and account code load when a buyer needs them. The checkout, the embed and the dashboard load less code too.

Before and after, measured
Code every store page downloads first
  • Core script, download size: 2.0 85.9 KB, Split 53.9 KB, Now 47.4 KB (−45 %).

Download size (Brotli-compressed) from the production build. 2.0: one script for everything. Split: the core after cart, search and account moved out. Now: the core after the account code moved out too. After the split a product page loads 63.4 KB in total, a Starlight home 62.9 KB.

Shoppex MCP: your shop in Claude New

Shoppex MCP connects an AI agent to your store. Ask in plain words, and the agent reads and changes your shop through the same Developer API your integrations use.

Connect in a minute
In Claude (claude.ai, the desktop and mobile apps, Cowork or Claude Code), add a custom connector with https://api.shoppex.io/mcp. Sign in to Shoppex, pick the store and allow access. No API key to copy.
Other agents
Cursor and Windsurf can run the local Shoppex MCP server with an API key.
102 tools
Orders, products, variants, keys, customers, coupons, payment links, subscriptions, tickets, reviews, workflows, themes and analytics.
New tools in this release
Variants, key pools, picture uploads, voiding unpaid orders, review replies, Needs attention, and reads for your shop, billing, wallet, team and domains.
A preview before every risky change
A tool that deletes, sends, publishes or voids something first only shows what it would do. The change then needs a one-time code that works for that exact change, for ten minutes. A retry never runs a change twice.
You stay in control
Disconnect any agent in the Connected Apps card, under Settings › Developer › API Keys.

A real conversation in Claude with our demo store: asked which coupons were never used and to delete SPRING20, Claude lists the coupons, calls the delete tool once to get a one-time confirmation code, then deletes with that code and summarizes the three coupons

A real conversation in Claude with our demo store. The delete tool first returns only a one-time code; the coupon is deleted on the second call, with that code.

Set it up with the Shoppex in Claude guide.

Selling

Products

New
Variant visibility
Set a variant to Public, On hold or Private. On hold shows it as Unavailable. Private hides it, and only buyers with its private link can buy it, for example a drop you share in your Discord.
New
Discord roles per variant
Give up to 20 roles per variant on top of the product’s roles. Shoppex takes them back the same way.
New
Change Prices
Change the price of many products at once: set a price, or change it by an amount or a percentage.
New
SEO
Set a search title, description and share image per product, so Google results and shared links look the way you want. Under Settings › SEO, verify your store with Google, Bing, Yandex, Pinterest and Meta.
New
Stock display
Under Settings › Storefront, choose Low stock only to show the count when 10 or fewer are left, or Exact count to always show it.

Offers

New
Volume pricing
Products with volume discounts show a price table, and the active row follows the quantity. The cart shows the saving and how many more to add for the next discount. Bundles that include the product show too.
New
Related products and a sticky buy bar
Pick up to 3 products to show under each product. Turn on the sticky buy bar in the Builder, and the price and buy buttons stay on screen while buyers scroll.
New
Order bumps
Offer one more product at your discount on the hosted checkout. One click adds it.
Improved
Required add-ons
Mark an add-on group as required, and buyers cannot check out without choosing from it.

The Visibility control in the variant dialog: Public, On hold and Private, with Private selected and the note that only buyers with its private link can see and buy it

Hosted checkout for a $59.99 Valorant account with the offer Add 1,000 V-Bucks for 20% off at $7.99 instead of $9.99, next to the payment method and the Pay button

Getting paid

New
Google Pay through PayPal
Turn it on in your PayPal settings, and buyers on the hosted checkout can pay with Google Pay for one-time payments.
New
Hide the product name from PayPal
PayPal can show the order ID instead, so the product never shows up in a dispute or in the buyer’s PayPal activity.
New
Skinloop
Buyers pay USD orders with CS2 or Rust skins, shown as Steam Skins.
New
VAT
Checkout asks for the country, private or business, and a VAT ID checked for that country. EU business buyers in another country get reverse charge. Your prices stay the same.
New
Stripe risk level
The order page shows Normal, Elevated or Highest risk, with the score.
Improved
Cryptomus
Buyers see only the coins you turned on, and checkout says when an amount is below a coin’s minimum.

New
Evidence PDF
For a Stripe or PayPal dispute, upload proof by type and download one PDF with checkout IP and device, terms, delivery and access log, license activity, timeline and support chat.

Undo a cancellation before the period ends, from your dashboard or the buyer’s portal. Works for Stripe and Shoppex-billed subscriptions.
Improved
Subscription filters
Filter by payment method, product, buyer since and next charge. Export CSV exports only what you filtered.

The dispute files card: a receipt and a chat log, each tagged with its evidence type, the generated evidence PDF, and the Upload File, Attach Evidence PDF and Download Evidence PDF buttons

The dashboard

New
Needs attention
Home lists what needs you: disputes, past-due subscriptions, failed deliveries, failing webhooks, low stock, payments to confirm, open tickets and reviews without a reply. Money and risk come first.
New
Order timeline
Every order shows what happened: payment attempts, status changes, refunds, disputes, deliveries, key views, Discord and Telegram access, downloads and webhooks.
New
Orders facts
A row above your orders shows revenue per currency, paid, pending, refunded and disputed, for the filters you set.
Improved
Reviews
Your reply shows under the review on your store. Buyers can also leave a review from their order page.
Improved
Tickets
A ticket opens as its own page, with the order, the buyer and the fee you still pay if you refund.
New
Balance pays your fee bill
Your prepaid balance pays an open fee bill by itself within a day, before the shop can be marked overdue.

Needs attention on Home with eight rows: a $49 Stripe dispute, a failed delivery, a payment to confirm, a past-due subscription, a ticket, low stock, a failing webhook and two reviews, each with its action button

An order timeline from Order placed to The buyer viewed their keys: two payment attempts, the paid status, delivery by email, the email sent and the Order paid webhook delivered

A review detail page with the buyer's review, the seller's reply in the Your reply field, the linked order and the Appeal to Shoppex panel

For developers

New
New API endpoints

New
Order timeline in the API
Read every order’s history at GET /dev/v1/invoices/{uniqid}/timeline.
Improved
Idempotency keys
A retry with the same key gets the first answer back, byte for byte.
New
If-Match revisions
Workflows, coupons and categories take a revision, so two scripts cannot overwrite each other.
