It&rsquo;s the perfect ready-to-go system for anyone with an exciting product ready to launch, without having to stress about knowing how to code or design, or having to spend months working away on an advanced store right away.\n<p>Based on our first-hand user testing, we found this plan is great for entrepreneurs that don&rsquo;t want to get too wrapped up in all the ins and outs of website builder or feel overwhelmed by a wide range of features. With Shopify Starter, you can access:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>One staff login<\/li>\n<li>One inventory location<\/li>\n<li>Unlimited products<\/li>\n<li>Free SSL Certificate<\/li>\n<li>Abandoned cart recovery<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you chose to go for the Starter plan, you&rsquo;ll be paying Shopify 5% of your total transaction value.<\/p>\n<h4>Who do we recommend Shopify Starter for?<\/h4>\n<p>If the Starter plan is catching your eye, you&rsquo;re probably a small business owner who is completely new to website building and is just start to give your SME a digital footprint.

It enables you to create and customise an online store, and manage all your products, orders, and customer information. You have a choice of 20 themes, and you can use simple editing tools to tailor your store to your brand. From our user testing, we thought this is great for small businesses that don&rsquo;t want to splurge on a website builder but want to have enough features and range to have more creative and functional freedom than the Starter plan.<\/p>\n<p>The Basic plan also gives you access to a blogging engine, as well as finance, behaviour, and marketing reports. You&rsquo;ll pay &pound;19 per month if you choose to be billed annually, but &pound;25 if you pay monthly.<\/p>\n<p>With Basic Shopify, you can access:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Unlimited storage and bandwidth<\/li>\n<li>2 staff logins<\/li>\n<li>4 inventory locations<\/li>\n<li>Unlimited products<\/li>\n<li>Free SSL certificate<\/li>\n<li>Abandoned cart recovery<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you choose to go for Basic Shopify and are using a third-party payment provider, you&rsquo;ll pay a transaction fee of 2%.<\/p>\n<h4>Who do we recommend Basic Shopify for?<\/h4>\n<p>This is the best deal of small businesses who have a low monthly sales volume and aren&rsquo;t looking for a highly sophisticated ecommerce platform. This also is great for your SME if you have a tight budget and can&rsquo;t afford to burn a lot of money on your ecommerce website builder.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>Shopify<\/h3>\n<p><strong>&pound;49 per month<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text] <\/p><div class=\"pros-cons\">\n <div class=\"pros\">\n <span class=\"pros-cons-title\">\n Pros <\/span>\n\n <ul class=\"pros-cons-list\">\n <li class=\"pros-cons-item\">\n Professional reports (as opposed to the basic ones in the two previous plans) <\/li>\n <li class=\"pros-cons-item\">\n 5 inventory locations <\/li>\n <li class=\"pros-cons-item\">\n 5 staff accounts <\/li>\n <\/ul>\n <\/div>\n\n \n <div class=\"cons\">\n <span class=\"pros-cons-title\">\n Cons <\/span>\n\n <ul class=\"pros-cons-list\">\n <li class=\"pros-cons-item\">\n No duty and taxes feature (similar to the previous two above) allowing customers to see their estimated total costs <\/li>\n <\/ul>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n[vc_column_text]The main difference between the Shopify plan and the Basic plan is the former&rsquo;s much more powerful reporting tools. Professional reports give you granular detail on sales trends, customer behaviour, and even tax.\n<p>The Shopify plan also includes the ability to create country-specific domains in order to optimise international SEO, and to customise your product prices for different global regions. Therefore, this is perfect for business that want to retain and expand their international clientele.<\/p>\n<p>Alongside lower credit card rates and transaction fees, this makes <strong>the Shopify plan a great option for growing and international online businesses<\/strong>. You&rsquo;ll pay &pound;49 per month if you&rsquo;re billed annually, but &pound;65 if you pay monthly.<\/p>\n<p>In short, with Shopify you can access:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Unlimited storage and bandwidth<\/li>\n<li>5 staff logins<\/li>\n<li>5 inventory locations<\/li>\n<li>Unlimited products<\/li>\n<li>Free SSL certificate<\/li>\n<li>Abandoned cart recovery<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you choose Shopify as your plan and are working with a third-party payment provider, you&rsquo;ll be paying a 1% transaction fee.<\/p>\n<h4>Who do we recommend Shopify for?<\/h4>\n<p>With more powerful features, we recommend the Shopify plan for businesses that are serious about scaling and need an ecommerce solution that will grow alongside them.

For example, you could create a report that tracks sales of products from a paid referral service such as Google Ads, and gather detailed insights on your loyal and at-risk customers.<\/p>\n<p>The Advanced plan also includes third-party calculated shipping rates. This allows you to integrate with a third-party shipping service in order to access up-to-date shopping rates for your customers, and provide them with a variety of shipping options.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Advanced Shopify is best for large online stores with an international presence and a substantial customer base.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As well as the three main plans discussed above, Shopify also offers Shopify Lite for users that just want to start selling from their existing websites and Shopify Plus for large online businesses with complex needs.

Shopify&rsquo;s cheapest plan costs<strong> &pound;19 per month<\/strong>, while Wix&rsquo;s <em>most expensive<\/em> ecommerce plan is only &pound;27 per month.<\/p>\n<p>This is a premium product at a premium price but, if you&rsquo;ve got big ambitions for your online store, then Shopify could make a huge difference in the long run.<\/p>\n<p>That&rsquo;s because you&rsquo;re simply not going to find the same depth of sales features that you get with Shopify from a non-ecommerce specific builder.

It&rsquo;s worth noting, however, that you can always migrate your online store later if you want to take advantage of Shopify&rsquo;s excellent sales features to accelerate the growth of your business once you have an established presence.<\/p>\n<h3>Is it more expensive to sell with Shopify than Wix?<\/h3>\n<p>You&rsquo;ll almost certainly be paying more in monthly subscription fees for a Shopify store than for a Wix store. However, things get a bit more complicated when we compare the total cost of actually selling products. Because of the different transaction and processing fees charged, if you&rsquo;re on a Shopify or Advanced Shopify plan, you&rsquo;ll pay lower charges than you would with Wix for each transaction &ndash; and this could add up to considerable savings over time.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<\/p><div class=\"jumplink-anchor-section\">\n <div class=\"jumplink-anchor-pointer\" id=\"link-summary\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n[vc_column_text]\n<h2>Summary<\/h2>\n<p>With more than one million customers around the world, Shopify is one of the most widely used and respected ecommerce platforms around.<\/p>\n<p>You might be paying hundreds or thousands of pounds a year, but growing ecommerce businesses will find that the benefits of using Shopify more than make up for the marginal dent in their profit margins.<\/p>\n<p>If you&rsquo;re a smaller online store, by all means opt for something cheaper.
