Shopify SCIM pricing: what it's gated behind, and what it costs
SCIM gated behind a paid tier. Iden provisions Shopify on any plan tier.
2 min read · Last updated June 2026
Shopify gates SCIM provisioning behind its Plus plan (Plus: $2,300/mo), up from Basic: $29/mo (annual) or $39/mo (monthly). Standard plans cannot use automated provisioning, so most identity tools either make you upgrade, about 79.3x the per-seat price across every user, or leave Shopify manual. Iden provisions Shopify on any plan, so you skip the SCIM tax entirely and still get provisioning, deprovisioning, and access reviews with a full audit trail.

Shopify gates SCIM to the Plus plan (Plus: $2,300/mo), up from Basic: $29/mo (annual) or $39/mo (monthly), about 79.3x the per-seat price across every user. With Iden you connect Shopify on any plan instead, so this cost does not apply.

How Iden provisions Shopify on any plan
Iden does not depend on Shopify’s SCIM endpoint. It connects Shopify through the method that works on your plan, an API, OAuth, or Iden’s own custom automation, and runs the full lifecycle: onboarding on day one, permission changes as roles move, access requests that replace manual tickets, access reviews with evidence, and offboarding in seconds. That is the coverage SCIM-only tools cannot match once an app gates or lacks SCIM.
