How much does Shopify cost?

Currently, Shopify has three monthly subscription packages to choose from:

1. Shopify Basic

This is the package we usually purchase the most. It provides a complete store, detailed data analysis tools, discount code tools, app center, blog, etc.

You also get a free SSL certificate, customer management, shipping labels, unlimited file storage, and 24/7 support.

The pricing structure for the Basic plan is set at $29 per month + 2.9% and 30 cents per transaction, giving you the freedom to scale your Shopify store with a large number of products.

If you are an individual seller, then this package is undoubtedly the best choice.

2. Shopify

Shopify is $79 per month + 2.6% and 30 cents for each transaction, and you can enjoy almost all the features of Shopify.

Create an unlimited number of products and take advantage of everything the Basic Shopify plan has to offer.

There is also access to Shopify POS, gift cards, professional reports, and abandoned carts. The abandoned cart recovery tool is one of the main reasons people tend to choose the professional plan because it is one of the best ways to get contact information from people who never completed their order.

The coolest part is that the abandoned cart tool sends automated emails.

Another important aspect is the transaction fee. If your website generates more than $5,000 in monthly revenue, it is better to choose the Shopify plan.

3. Advanced Shopify

The price of Advanced Shopify is $299 per month + 2.4% and 30 cents per transaction, which provides all the features of the previous packages, as well as advanced data statistics and analysis functions, and your transaction fees will be lower.

Everything in the advanced Shopify package is absolutely unlimited, and there is no need to worry about the website not being able to handle the traffic. Unlimited also comes with an abandoned cart recovery feature, which allows you to manage all users who have added items to their carts but have not paid. You can send mass emails or contact them with one click.

If your website generates more than $10,000 in monthly revenue, this package is the best deal.

The Shopify platform is relatively reliable and has been developed for many years. If you want to open a store on this platform, it is recommended that you understand the relevant entry threshold and the required fees, and make preparations as soon as possible.
