We have been building WordPress plugins for years. Thousands of website owners use our tools to add rich media to their sites without writing a single line of code.
But then a new question started coming up more and more: “Do you have something for Shopify?”
It kept repeating. From music store owners. From podcast creators. From merchants selling audiobooks and meditation content. All of them ran Shopify stores. All of them struggled to find a clean, flexible way to add audio.
So we built one.
Today, we are officially launching the Audio Player App for Shopify. It lets you add music, playlists, voiceovers, and podcasts to your Shopify store without touching any code. It works with all modern Shopify themes and takes only minutes to set up.
The app is live now on the Shopify App Store. Keep reading to see what it does and whether it is the right fit for your store.
Why We Built the Audio Player App for Shopify
Shopify is great at a lot of things. Native audio support is not one of them.
If you want to add background music to your store, you are mostly on your own. If you sell music tracks, audiobooks, or podcast episodes and want shoppers to preview them before buying, there is no built-in option that handles that properly. And if you want something that actually fits your brand design, the options run out fast.
Most merchants try to work around this with embedded codes from SoundCloud or Spotify. That works sometimes, but it is messy. You lose control over how the player looks. It does not match your store. On mobile, those embeds often behave unpredictably.
The few audio apps that do exist tend to be either too complicated for non-technical store owners or too basic to be genuinely useful.
We wanted to fill that gap properly.
Shopping has become a multimedia experience. A music store should play music. A meditation store should let shoppers hear a sample. An audiobook seller should let people preview a chapter. Audio creates a layer of experience that images and text simply cannot.
That is the problem we set out to solve.
What is Audio Player for Shopify?
Audio Player by bPlugins is a customizable Shopify audio player app that lets you add sound to any part of your store without coding.
You can use it to add background music, set up a playlist, embed a podcast, or attach audio previews to individual product pages. The app works with all modern Shopify themes and plugs directly into the theme editor. Install it, customize the player through the visual editor, place it where you need it, and you are done.
It supports single audio tracks, playlists, sticky players that follow visitors as they scroll, and button-style players that expand on click. Everything is responsive and works smoothly on mobile and desktop.
If you have been wanting to add audio to your Shopify store but kept putting it off because it seemed complicated, this app makes it simple.
Key Features of Audio Player for Shopify
Multiple Audio Player Types
Not every store needs the same kind of audio experience. That is why we built four different player formats.
The single player is a clean, standalone player for one audio track. It works well on product pages or anywhere you want focused listening.
The playlist player lets you group multiple tracks together with navigation controls. It is useful for music stores, course content, or any store with several audio files to share.
The sticky player stays visible at the bottom of the screen as visitors browse. It is a great fit for background music or podcast stores where you want continuous playback while people navigate your pages.
The button player shows a simple play button that expands when clicked. It keeps your layout clean while still giving customers quick access to the audio.
SoundCloud and Spotify Integration
You do not need to upload everything from scratch. The app supports external audio sources, so you can embed SoundCloud tracks or Spotify content directly into your Shopify store.
This is especially useful for musicians, podcast creators, and stores that already host their audio on streaming platforms. Paste the link, and the player handles the rest.
Fully Customizable Design
Your audio player should look like it belongs in your store. With the visual customization panel, you can change colors, adjust the layout, and style the player to match your brand. No code required. Just click, adjust, and save.
Whether your store uses a minimal white aesthetic or a bold, dark design, the player fits in rather than sticking out.
Product Page Audio Support
This is one of the features we are most excited about.
Using Shopify product metafields, you can attach audio directly to individual product pages. The right audio loads automatically based on which product a customer is viewing. So if you sell 50 music tracks or 30 audiobook chapters, each one gets its own audio preview without any manual management on your end.
This works really well for digital product stores, music sellers, tutorial platforms, and anyone selling audio-based content through Shopify.
Responsive Across All Devices
The player works on every screen size. Whether a customer is on a desktop, tablet, or phone, the audio plays smoothly and the player looks sharp. Mobile traffic accounts for a significant share of Shopify visits, and we ensured the experience is just as seamless on mobile as it is on desktop.
How Shopify Merchants Can Use Audio Player
Audio fits more types of stores than most people realize. Here are some real ways merchants can use this app:
Music stores can let shoppers preview tracks before buying. Instead of purchasing blindly, customers hear exactly what they are getting.
Podcast creators can embed recent episodes directly on their Shopify storefront and turn their store into a content hub.
Audiobook sellers can offer chapter samples so readers can decide if a book is right for them before committing.
Online course creators can add audio previews of lessons or use the playlist player to organize course modules.
Meditation and wellness stores can add ambient background music to create a calmer, more immersive shopping atmosphere.
Digital download sellers can let customers hear what they are buying, which reduces hesitation and cuts down on refund requests.
Product-based stores can record short voice walkthroughs and attach them to product pages for a more personal, human touch.

Built on Our Experience with WordPress Audio Solutions
We did not start from zero.
Our WordPress HTML5 Audio Player plugin has been used by thousands of website owners and has built a strong reputation in the WordPress space over the years.
When requests for a Shopify version started coming in, we already knew what merchants actually needed. We knew what worked, what frustrated users, and what to avoid. That experience shaped every decision we made with this app.
The result is an audio player that is clean, reliable, and built by a team with years of focus on web media solutions. We are not new to this space. We just brought what we know to a new platform.
What’s Coming Next
We are already working on what comes after launch. Here is a look at what is on our roadmap:
- More player skins and visual styles to fit different store aesthetics
- Audio engagement analytics so you can see how visitors interact with your players
- Additional streaming integrations beyond SoundCloud and Spotify
- More advanced playlist controls, including shuffle and queue options
- Performance improvements as the app grows
We ship updates on a regular basis and read every piece of feedback we get. If there is a feature you want, tell us. We build based on real usage, not assumptions.
