What will happen to the Atlas app when I pause my Shopify store?

Will I still be charged if I pause my store?

If you're using Shopify’s Pause and Build plan, Shopify will automatically unpause your store after 90 days. When that happens, all app charges (including Atlas) will also resume — even if you aren’t actively using your store.

How to avoid unexpected charges

To prevent being charged once Shopify reactivates your store:

  1. Go to your Shopify admin

  2. Click SettingsApps and sales channels

  3. Find Atlas: AI Store Builder

  4. Click Uninstall or Delete the app

This will fully cancel your Atlas subscription through Shopify and stop any future billing.

Tip: Uninstalling the app before pausing your store is the safest way to prevent automatic charges when Shopify resumes your billing.

Will I lose all of my settings?

No — your Atlas app settings are saved for 30 days after uninstalling, per Shopify’s API policy. If you reinstall Atlas within 30 days:

  • Your subscription will automatically reactivate

  • Your previously saved settings and generated content will be restored

This gives you flexibility to pause and return to Atlas without losing your work.
