Which one is right for your store?
If what you need is a proven, customizable free shipping bar — and especially if you want it for free — Hextom is genuinely hard to beat. It has done exactly that job well since 2015, with deep targeting options for geography, Shopify Markets, currency, and scheduling.
Limen starts from the same bar and adds the step Hextom leaves to the shopper: a product recommendation chosen to fit what is already in the cart, so a shopper who is short of the threshold sees a relevant way to reach it. It also runs a threshold diagnostic on install, flagging when your free shipping number is out of step with your average order value. Hextom shows the goal; Limen helps close it.
