BigCommerce vs. Shopify

More freedom to do ecommerce — your way.

Brands who chose BigCommerce over Shopify:

Unmatched flexibility.

Shopify’s gated ecosystem charges you for “outside” solutions, adding up when you try to expand and constraining innovation as your business matures. Shopify monetizes its client base through proprietary technologies with additional costs for using “outside” solutions. This creates a gated ecosystem.

BigCommerce empowers you to choose the best-in-class solutions for your unique business needs on a platform that’s flexible enough to evolve as you reach new stages of digital maturity. BigCommerce provides open choice to partner with best-in-class solutions. This empowers a flexible, modern ecommerce ecosystem.

Don’t just take our word for it.

Don’t let Shopify box you in.
