Visual brand vs competitors side by side with VS badge. Compare your product against competitors with feature rows, brand highlighting, and winner indicators. This guide shows how to add the Competitor Comparison section to the Refresh theme with Section Shop — as a native Online Store 2.0 section, customized in the theme editor, without touching Refresh's code. Refresh is a free theme by Shopify, known for editorial layouts and generous whitespace — and comparison tables like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Competitor Comparison fits Refresh

Us-vs-them tables, pricing grids and before/after layouts that answer objections and justify the purchase. On Refresh, Competitor Comparison slots in like any built-in section: it inherits the theme's fonts by default, picks up your color choices in the editor, and lives alongside Refresh's own sections in the picker — prefixed "SShop:" so it's easy to spot.

## Steps

1. **Install Section Shop (free)** — Add the app from the Shopify App Store. It's free, carries the Built for Shopify badge, and changes nothing in your Refresh setup until you add a section.
2. **Find “Competitor Comparison” in the library** — Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Comparison Tables category — or use search.
3. **Click “Add to theme”** — Section Shop writes the section into your Refresh theme through Shopify's official theme API, the same mechanism Refresh uses for its own sections.
4. **Open the Refresh theme editor** — In Online Store → Themes → Customize, click “Add section”: you'll find it as “SShop:Competitor Table” in the picker.
5. **Customize and save** — Adjust text, images, colors and layout. Typography follows your Refresh font settings by default — or switch the section to any Shopify font. Hit Save and it's live.

## FAQ

### Does Competitor Comparison work with the Refresh theme?

Yes. Refresh is an Online Store 2.0 theme, and Competitor Comparison installs as a native OS 2.0 section through Shopify's official theme API. It appears in Refresh's theme editor as “SShop:Competitor Table”, alongside the theme's own sections.

### Will Competitor Comparison match Refresh's design?

By default the section inherits your theme's fonts, so it picks up Refresh's typography automatically. Colors, spacing, images and content are all editable in the theme editor — no CSS required.

### Is Competitor Comparison free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Competitor Comparison is free, like every section in the 56-section library. Once added it's a standard theme file: if you uninstall the app, the section stays in your Refresh theme and keeps working.
