FisherLeads helps you get newly launched Shopify stores, with the founder's contact, the day they launch

The way to get newly launched Shopify stores is a live source that hands you confirmed-new storefronts the day they go live, each with the owner's contact, so you can act while the store is brand new. FisherLeads does this: you get new Shopify stores openly, with category, country, launch date, and the founder's verified email, and you can pull them as a one-off export, a continuous live feed, launch alerts, or an API.

What you get with FisherLeads:

  • New Shopify stores the day they go live, not a recycled list.
  • The founder's verified email, on a free account.
  • A filter to your niche, category, country, or platform.
  • A choice of how to get them: browse, export, alerts, or API.

What this guide covers:

  • Whether you can get newly launched Shopify stores for free.
  • How to get them with the owner's contact.
  • How to get them continuously, the day they launch.
  • How to get only the stores that fit you.
  • How to get new stores on other platforms too.

What it means to "get" newly launched Shopify stores

Getting newly launched Shopify stores means two things together: a list of stores confirmed to be live right now, and a way to reach the owner. Most sources give you one without the other.

  • A scraped list gives you domains but no contact and no confirmed launch date.
  • A stale export gives you stores that opened weeks or months ago.
  • A live feed with contacts gives you stores confirmed live today, each with the founder's email.

The thing that makes a store worth getting is that it is genuinely new and reachable. FisherLeads confirms a store is live before it is listed, verified with about 98% accuracy, and attaches the founder's contact, so the stores you get are real and reachable rather than a list you still have to chase.

Can you get newly launched Shopify stores for free?

Yes, partly. Here is what is free and where a paid plan adds more:

  • Free: browse the live Shopify directory, see new stores with category, country, and launch date, and unlock the founder's verified email on a free account.
  • Paid: higher export limits, full filtering, launch alerts, and API access for pulling stores into your own tools.
  • No cost to start: you can see real new stores and reach a founder before paying anything.

Be wary of lists sold as "free new Shopify stores" that are months old or carry no contact. Always check the launch dates on the actual rows before you trust a source.

How to get them with the owner's contact

A store with no way to reach the owner is half a lead. This is the part most sources gate or skip, and it is where FisherLeads leads.

  • Every new store comes with the founder's verified email, not a generic info@ address.
  • Contacts are shown on a free account, so you can reach the owner while the store is fresh.
  • The public business information shown is public, and removal requests are honored.
  • Because you get the launch date alongside the contact, you can reach a founder in their first week, which is the message they actually read.

How to get them continuously, the day they launch

You can get newly launched Shopify stores as a one-time pull or as an ongoing stream. Match the method to how you work.

Browse and export

Filter the live directory to what you want and export a CSV. Best for a one-off list or a specific niche pull.

Launch alerts

Set an alert and get new stores in your niche delivered as they launch. Best for staying first without checking the directory every day.

API and webhooks

Pull new stores straight into your CRM or outreach tool, or receive a webhook the day a store goes live. Best for building the feed into your own system.

Here is how the ways to get them compare:

How to get only the stores that fit you

You rarely want every new store. Narrow to the ones worth your time:

  • By niche or category: apparel, beauty, jewelry, home goods, and more.
  • By country: the United States leads at about 45% of new stores, followed by France, the United Kingdom, Australia, and India.
  • By platform: Shopify here, or WooCommerce, Wix, WordPress, and others.
  • By recency: today, this week, or this month.

Filtering first means every store you get is a fit, so your outreach stays relevant and your reply rate stays high.

How many you can get, and what they look like

The supply is large and constant, so the question is never quantity, it is freshness and contact data. These numbers are measured by FisherLeads from confirmed launches.

About 3,160 new Shopify stores go live per day.

About 95,000 new Shopify stores launch every 30 days.

What they tend to be:

  • Top category: apparel, ahead of beauty, jewelry, and home goods.
  • First apps installed: reviews and email tools such as Judge.me and Klaviyo.

How to reach the owners without being ignored

Getting the stores is half the job. New founders get pitched constantly and treat cold blasts as spam, so volume backfires. What works:

  • Reach out in the first days, while the launch is fresh and relevant.
  • Reference what the store actually sells, not a generic template.
  • Give a clear reason you fit, not a mass pitch.
  • Keep your lists clean and honor opt outs, following basic email rules.

Because you get the launch date and the category with each store, you can write to a founder whose store went live this week, which is exactly the message they will read.

How to get new stores on other platforms too

Newly launched stores are not only on Shopify.

  • FisherLeads tracks launches on WooCommerce, Wix, WordPress, Squarespace, and 30+ other platforms.
  • It also tracks newly launched business and service websites.
  • Every platform comes with the same launch day detection and verified contacts.

Get new stores on WooCommerce, Wix, WordPress, and business websites.
