how much is shopify per month

[jasminePineda]

Hi all, I’m Jasmine Pineda from Curaçao and want to start selling local art (like paintings and crafts) using Shopify free trial. As a beginner, I’m curious—how much is Shopify per month after the trial, florin?

I’m on a tight budget and want to keep costs low while sharing Curaçao’s art with the world. Any strategic tips for a newbie like me? 

How do I get trial in case of used florin?

Hi @jasminePineda 

It's great that you're looking to share Curaçao's beautiful art with the world using Shopify.

Here’s what you need to know about Shopify’s pricing after the free trial and how to sign up using the Netherlands Antillean guilder (ANG/florin).

1. Shopify Pricing After the Free Trial (in ANG/florin)

After your 14-day free trial, Shopify’s paid plans start at $39 USD/month (~70 ANG). Below are the details (official pricing here😞

Plan Monthly Cost (USD) Approx. in ANG (florin)* Best For

Basic Shopify	$39 USD	~70 ANG	New businesses (online store, 2 staff accounts)
Shopify	$105 USD	~188 ANG	Growing businesses (5 staff, professional reports)
Advanced Shopify	$399 USD	~715 ANG	Scaling businesses (15 staff, advanced analytics)

*Exchange rate: 1 USD ≈ 1.79 ANG (confirm with your bank).

💡 Budget Tip: Start with Basic Shopify and use free tools to minimize costs.

2. How to Get the Free Trial (Using ANG/florin)

Since Shopify bills in USD, follow these steps:

1. Sign up for the 14-day free trial here (no credit card needed).

2. After the trial, add a credit/debit card (Visa/Mastercard). Charges will be in USD, converted to ANG by your bank.

3. Watch for fees: Some banks charge foreign transaction fees (~2–3%).

3. Cost-Saving Tips for Your Curaçao Art Store

Free Theme: Use Shopify’s free "Dawn" theme (mobile-friendly).
Free Marketing: Promote on Instagram/Facebook before paying for ads.
Local Pickup/Delivery: Save shipping costs for nearby buyers.
Pay with Wise/Revolut: Lower currency conversion fees than traditional banks.

Hi Jasmine! It is amazing that you are using Shopify to showcase the art of Curaçao to the whole world.

Some information on the costs, in a very way:

Shopify Costs in Florin (1 USD = ~1. 79 ANG)

— Basic Plan: $39 USD (~70 ANG/month) – Perfect for starting out.

— Starter Plan: $5 USD (~9 ANG/month) – Inexpensive, but designed more for social networking.

— Trial Deal: You pay nothing for three days then for $1 a month during ninety days ($1USD=~1. 79 ANG).

Don’t worry about the florin side, that’s your bank business.

Go for: Basic Plan (~70 ANG/month) post-trial—keeps it simple and doable.

Chill Tips for a Newbie

— Maximize the Trial: Have fun with the free 3-day trial, but make it last three months at only $1per month. You’ll have plenty of time to determine that.

— Easy Listings: Take pictures easily; just snap five to ten “pieces” and be done with it.

— Ship Smart: Keep it light, and see what you can get from Curacao Post for almost no money…

How to Kick Off

— Go to Shopify for a free trial, register using your email (no card yet). After three days pass by, take the one dollar offer using any card that is based on or uses United States Dollars (e.g., MCB has got you back).

Just stay calm, let Curaçao sparkle.

Shopify's basic plan starts at around $39 USD per month, which would be roughly 70-75 Florin, but you might want to check for regional pricing. They also have a Starter plan for $5 USD if you just need simple selling features Auslandei Hair Accessories. For keeping costs low, consider starting with Shopify's free trial and using free themes and apps. You can sign up for the trial directly on their website—no need for specific currency settings at that stage.

Shopify is free for 3 days + $1/month for 3 months + plans.

In short, you will get $1 offer.
