do i have to buy a plan to start a shop ?

No, you can start your website without buying a plan. However, to make it public, you will need a plan.

Hello @mozes1 !

Thanks for your great question!

As mentioned by @GabrielS , in order to make your store live and usable to the public, you would need to purchase a plan with us.

To start, we do offer a 14 -day free trial, this gives you the option to play around and let you get a feel for the platform. You can sign up right here at this link.

What you would pay for your plan would depend on what subscription plan you choose. You can see a breakdown of all the subscription plans here. If you weren’t sure about which plan is best for your business, there is a layout here of the different features of each plan.

Also, there would be additional charges per month depending on your payment gateway; for example, credit card rates or transaction fees. You would need to use a payment gateway in order to accept credit card payments from your customers at the checkout. There is an explanation of each charge that may appear on your invoice, have a look here.

I know there is a lot of information included above! We try to be as transparent as possible when it comes to billing, so you understand what you are paying for. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask! Furthermore, I’d love to hear more about your business idea and plans if you have some time?
