Are you building your online store and looking for the best PrestaShop modules to add features or take advantage of integrations?
To help you find useful addons for your ecommerce, we have created a list of the best modules, divided into categories.
To begin, let’s see what modules are and where we can find them.

PrestaShop modules: what they are and what they are for
PrestaShop modules, also called addons, are add-ons created by third-party developers or the internal PrestaShop team.
In practice, a module is a set of files including PHP files, JavaScript but also assets and templates.
The latter can be used to show the module interface in the administrative area or go to form elements that will be shown to site visitors.
Why are they useful?
Through the modules we can extend the functions already integrated in the CMS for example by adding new payment methods.

In other cases, the modules allow us to add new functions to our online store. For example, activate integration with a marketplace like Amazon and synchronize the catalogues.
Thanks to the modules we can also create our shop more easily, just think of the page builders that help us create product pages and customized layouts.
These are just a few examples because to be honest there are modules for any function. And that brings us to the next question.
Are modules always indispensable?
PrestaShop addons allow us to extend the functions and simplify the management of our ecommerce site. In some cases these add-ons are really useful, in other cases they can be superfluous.
When you create your shop with PrestaShop you should carefully evaluate the functions you need and understand when you should use modules.

For example, there are modules to create automatic site backups.
If you have chosen a quality hosting service, you do not need these modules because your provider offers you this service.
Isn’t that the case in your case? Try switching to SupportHost! With our PrestaShop hosting, automatic backups are included and free and you can also perform them independently from cPanel.
Where to find PrestaShop modules
Before going to see a list of modules that can be useful for creating or improving our shop, let’s see the different sites where you can find them.
The first thing to do is to search for the modules directly from the back-office or consult the official directory called: PrestaShop official addons marketplace.

Here we will find a large catalog of free and payment modules for our PrestaShop site. The list of modules that I present to you in the next chapter contains precisely add-ons present in this directory.
If the 3,000+ modules you can find here weren’t enough, you can also check out other marketplaces.
Any examples?
- On Codecanyon which is part of Envato Market you can find around 300 modules. If you are looking for themes for PrestaShop you can also take a look at the dedicated category on Themeforest.
- PrestaHero currently offers 96 premium modules and 40 free PrestaShop modules. Among the free ones there is a form to insert the captcha code in the contact forms.

Having said that, let’s move on to our personal list of addons that we have divided into categories to make reading this article more enjoyable.
We will look at some of the most used modules:
- for payments;
- to integrate social networks;
- to associate the store with marketplaces;
- for marketing;
- per cookie e GDPR;
- for other functions: translations, page builders, store metrics, recurring payments and subscriptions.
For each module we have reported the compatibility with the PrestaShop version and the cost. The information is as reported on the PrestaShop addons marketplace at the time of writing this article (October 2022).

Here are some examples of modules for PrestaShop to manage cookies.
