Each unique combination of option values creates a distinct variant of that product. However, have you ever tried adding multiple product variations to your Shopify store only to hit a frustrating Shopify variant limit? Shopify <strong>limits each product to 100 variants<\/strong> <strong>and three options<\/strong>, making it challenging for merchants to sell items with multiple variants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This restriction can limit your ability to showcase your full product range, potentially affecting conversions and customer experience. But don\u2019t worry &#8211; there are ways to work around the Shopify 100 variant limit!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this guide, we\u2019ll cover:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/litcommerce.com\/blog\/shopify-variant-limit\/#what-is-shopify-variant-limit-with-2025-updates\">What is the variant limit in Shopify<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"#3-workarounds-for-the-shopify-100-variant-limit\">3 methods to exceed the 100-variant cap<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong><a href=\"#5-top-apps-to-overcome-the-shopify-variant-limit\">5 best apps to remove the Shopify variant limit<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s dive in and explore the best ways to optimize your Shopify store without being restricted by variant limits!<\/p>\n\n\n<p><getresponse-form form-id=\"23fe0673-a0f4-42cc-b329-6a3433b0afb3\" e=\"1\"><\/getresponse-form><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is Shopify Variant Limit? (With 2026 Updates)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Shopify variant limit defines the maximum number of variations you can have on a product, which is essential for sellers with customizable or diverse items.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The current Shopify variant limit is <strong>100 variants per product<\/strong>, with a maximum of <strong>three product options<\/strong>. These options can vary from product to product. For instance, one product may have <strong>size, color, and material<\/strong>, while another may use <strong>weight, finish, and style.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take an example of a T-shirt that has the following <strong>three options<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Color<\/strong> \u2013 Medium Brown, Black Strike, Pastel Orchid, Light Heather Grey, Chocolate, Black, White, Berry, Yellow, Cream, Olive Fun, Sky Blue (12 choices)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Size<\/strong> \u2013 XS, S, M, L, XL, XXL (6 choices)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"456\" src=\"https:\/\/litcommerce.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/product-variant-1024x456.webp\" alt=\"Variants of a product\" class=\"wp-image-78074\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litcommerce.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/product-variant-1024x456.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litcommerce.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/product-variant-300x133.webp 300w, https:\/\/litcommerce.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/product-variant-768x342.webp 768w, https:\/\/litcommerce.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/product-variant.webp 1414w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Variants of a product<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Now, this product already has 72 variants (=12 colors \u00d7 6 sizes). But, if you add 2 more options of styles (Round, V-Neck), the total number of variants will become 144 (=12 x 6 x 2). Since Shopify only allows <strong>100 variants per product<\/strong>, this setup <strong>exceeds the <\/strong><strong>100 Shopify variant limit<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, if your store reaches <strong>50,000 variants<\/strong>, Shopify imposes a <strong>daily upload limit<\/strong> when adding variants via an <strong>app or CSV import<\/strong>. This means you can add <strong>up to 1,000 new variants per day<\/strong>. However, <strong>Shopify Plus<\/strong> users are exempt from this restriction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As of <strong>April 2024<\/strong>, Shopify has introduced <strong>new GraphQL product APIs<\/strong>, significantly increasing the <strong>variant limit per product<\/strong> from <strong>100 to 2000<\/strong>. These APIs also provide greater flexibility in managing product options and variant values, allowing merchants to offer more product variations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, this expanded limit is <strong>only accessible via the API<\/strong> and is <strong>not available through the Shopify admin panel<\/strong>. This means the <strong>2,000-variant limit<\/strong> is not yet widely available for all Shopify users. So, let\u2019s explore <strong>three workarounds<\/strong> to bypass the Shopify variant limit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3 Workarounds for the Shopify 100 Variant Limit&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Until the Shopify 2000 variant limit is fully implemented, Shopify sellers can use workarounds to navigate the 100 variant limit Shopify restriction. These methods help sellers offer more customization options without being forced to split product categories or use Shopify plus-exclusive solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Split into separate products with internal link<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One effective way to bypass the Shopify variant limit is by <strong>dividing product variations into separate products<\/strong> while linking them internally. This approach can enhance the <strong>user experience<\/strong>, making it easier for customers to browse and select their preferred options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take <strong>American Eagle\u2019s Hey Baby Tea collection<\/strong> as an example. You will see multiple Hey Baby Tee listings, each available in a different color.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"647\" src=\"https:\/\/litcommerce.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Split-products-to-bypass-the-shopify-variant-limit-1024x647.webp\" alt=\"Split into separate products to bypass the Shopify variant limit\" class=\"wp-image-78077\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litcommerce.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Split-products-to-bypass-the-shopify-variant-limit-1024x647.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litcommerce.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Split-products-to-bypass-the-shopify-variant-limit-300x190.webp 300w, https:\/\/litcommerce.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Split-products-to-bypass-the-shopify-variant-limit-768x485.webp 768w, https:\/\/litcommerce.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Split-products-to-bypass-the-shopify-variant-limit.webp 1190w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Split into separate products to bypass the Shopify variant limit<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;Then, when you open any of these product pages, you will see a swatch-like selector that switches between colors.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"461\" src=\"https:\/\/litcommerce.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Split-products-to-bypass-the-shopify-variant-limit-2-1024x461.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-78076\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litcommerce.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Split-products-to-bypass-the-shopify-variant-limit-2-1024x461.webp 1024w, https:\/\/litcommerce.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Split-products-to-bypass-the-shopify-variant-limit-2-300x135.webp 300w, https:\/\/litcommerce.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Split-products-to-bypass-the-shopify-variant-limit-2-768x345.webp 768w, https:\/\/litcommerce.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Split-products-to-bypass-the-shopify-variant-limit-2.webp 1412w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>This strategy not only helps you avoid the Shopify variant limit but also allows your shoppers to see all available options upfront rather than having to click each product to compare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many brands adopt this approach, creating <strong>separate listings for different colors, materials, or even sizes<\/strong>, making the shopping process more visual and intuitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While this method improves user experience and allows you to get past the 100 variant limits, it comes with <strong>two technical challenges<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Internal linking between products: <\/strong>You might need a developer to set up <strong>meta fields<\/strong> that connect related products, ensuring smooth navigation between them.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>SEO best practices &#8211; Use Canonical URLs: <\/strong>Instead of having multiple separate pages competing for each color for search rankings, you can <strong>consolidate them under a single \u201cparent\u201d product page<\/strong>. Each color variation (the &#8220;child&#8221; products) would then include a <strong>canonical tag<\/strong> pointing to the parent product, preventing duplicate content issues.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Use product options apps<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another <strong>easier way<\/strong> to solve the Shopify 100 variant limit issue is by using a <strong>Shopify app<\/strong> that enables additional <strong>product options<\/strong>, not just variants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few popular apps that can help (and I will compare them in detail in the next section):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Infinite Options<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>SC Product Options<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Hulk Product Options<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>PC &#8211; Product Options<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>BSS Product Options, Variants<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>When choosing an app, consider <strong>usability<\/strong>. Is it easier for customers to select an option directly from the collection page? Or do they need to click through to another page? This is especially important for <strong>visual options<\/strong> like colors or patterns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>benefit<\/strong> of these apps is their flexibility, allowing Shopify sellers to add <strong>custom product options<\/strong> in multiple ways without having to separating products like the method above. Some even offer <strong>advanced features<\/strong> like file uploads for personalized orders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, before implementing an app on your Shopify store, it&#8217;s best to <strong>test it on a staging website<\/strong> to ensure compatibility and prevent potential conflicts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Use code to merge multiple products<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For merchants comfortable with coding or hiring a Shopify developer, there\u2019s an advanced workaround to overcome the variant limit of Shopify by merging multiple products into one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is how this method works:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Create a product<\/strong> with a maximum of <strong>100 variants<\/strong> and set up the required options.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Create another product<\/strong> with up to <strong>100 more variants<\/strong>, ensuring that the <strong>option names<\/strong> and <strong>option order<\/strong> match exactly with the first product.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Use custom code<\/strong> to merge these separate products into a single product on the front end.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>By implementing this, customers will see a <strong>seamless product page<\/strong> with more than 100 variants, even though Shopify technically limits each product to that number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5 Top Apps to Overcome the Shopify Variant Limit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve hit Shopify\u2019s <strong>100-variant limit<\/strong>, don\u2019t worry\u2014there are <strong>powerful apps<\/strong> available to help you <strong>expand product options<\/strong> and create a more flexible shopping experience.
