Ding ding!</p> <h2><a id="prices"></a>Round 1: Shopify vs BigCommerce Pricing</h2> <p>Before we get into the usability considerations and the different features of the two platforms, we’re going to take a good look at the price differences between BigCommerce and Shopify.</p> <p>While both platforms offer similar plans at similar price points, it’s important to realize that there are lots of potential hidden costs across all the plans.</p> <p>Plus: if you want to make up any shortfall in the core features of a plan by using a paid app, you will need to take into account the cost of that app, when comparing the prices of the different plans.</p> <p>This can get quite complicated!</p> <p>Luckily, we have a created a series of pricing calculators to help you out here.</p> <p>But before we even start comparing the different plans, I just need to introduce a few potential extra complications that can affect all the plans.</p> <h3><a id="post-101454-_gyzlfx9sm88v"></a>Shopify Transaction Fees</h3> <p>As we discussed in the Payment Processing round, when your ecommerce store takes payments from credit and debit cards, you will be charged a fee by a payment processor.</p> <p>Shopify has its own payment processor called <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/en/blog/shopify-payments/">Shopify Payments</a>. If you use Shopify Payments, the processing fee will be roughly the same as the fee from the best value third party payment processor in BigCommerce.</p> <p>However, if you don’t use Shopify Payments, not only will you have to pay a third party payment processor, Shopify will also charge you a transaction fee! BigCommerce won’t charge you any transaction fees, regardless of which payment processor you use.</p> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1400" height="330" class="wp-image-101575 aligncenter" src="https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-transaction-fees.png" alt="Shopify Transaction Fees" srcset="https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-transaction-fees.png 1400w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-transaction-fees-300x71.png 300w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-transaction-fees-1024x241.png 1024w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-transaction-fees-768x181.png 768w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-transaction-fees-1200x283.png 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px" /></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>Shopify Transaction Fees (if you don’t use Shopify Payments)</em></p> <p>This can make a massive difference to the fees you pay on each transaction, and ideally you’ll want to avoid this!</p> <p>However, there are certain circumstances where you won’t be able to use Shopify Payments:</p> <ul> <li>You’re not based in one of the <a href="https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/payments/shopify-payments/shopify-payments-requirements#supported-countries-and-regions">countries where Shopify Payments is available</a></li> <li>Yours is one of the <a href="https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/payments/shopify-payments/shopify-payments-requirements#prohibited-businesses" target="_blank" rel="noopener">business types that is prohibited by Shopify Payments</a></li> </ul> <p>It’s really important that you establish whether you will be eligible to use Shopify Payments before you choose between Shopify vs BigCommerce, as those extra transaction costs could sway your decision.</p> <p>For example, did you know that although Shopify has the best support for dropshipping, there are tons of <a href="https://community.shopify.com/c/payments-shipping-and/can-i-use-shopify-payments-for-my-dropshipping-store/td-p/535808" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reports of dropshippers being refused permission to use Shopify Payments</a> because Stripe (the processor behind Shopify Payments) consider it a high risk business?!</p> <h3><a id="post-101454-_qf7fvjdgxe5q"></a>BigCommerce Sales Caps</h3> <p>Another important consideration is the annual Sales Cap that BigCommerce puts on all its plans.</p> <p>For each plan, there is a limit to the value of the sales that your online store can generate within a 12-month period. If your store exceeds that limit, then you will automatically be bumped up onto the next plan!</p> <p>This is important as you may not need the extra features nor wish to pay the considerably higher cost of the higher plan. But you won’t have any choice. For stores with high value transactions but low margins, this could be a significant issue.</p> <p>You can see the Sales Caps in the tables below. Shopify doesn’t impose any such restrictions.</p> <h3><a id="post-101454-_46sbda1e27rt"></a>Comparing Shopify vs BigCommerce Prices</h3> <p>To try to make things a little bit simpler, we’re only going to compare the prices if you pay monthly. However, it should be noted that both platforms offer similar discounts if you pay annually, and Shopify offers a further discount if you’re prepared to pay for two years in advance.</p> <h4><a id="post-101454-_dtuw2lvtuqpn"></a>Shopify Lite</h4> <p>Shopify provides a very limited plan that allows you to add a “buy now” button to an existing website, sell directly on other platforms like Facebook, and also sell offline (at “point of sale”).</p> <p>Since BigCommerce doesn’t offer a comparable plan, we won’t be considering it any further here. But you can find out more about Shopify Lite on the <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/en/reviews/shopify/pricing/">Shopify pricing page</a>.</p> <h4><a id="post-101454-_1zztnxrwk6md"></a>Shopify Basic vs BigCommerce Standard Pricing</h4> <p>These are the entry level plans from both platforms. The basic prices are very similar.</p> <p>However, if your monthly income increases or you install applications to add missing features, or you deviate from the recommended payment processors, the differences become much pronounced.</p> <p>We have created the calculator below to help you predict what you would pay under different circumstances.</p> <h5 style="padding-bottom: 50px;">Shopify

BigCommerce), then the card processing fees are about the same.</p> <p>For example, for payment processing on a $100 order, you’d pay $3.20 using Shopify and a slightly lower $3.08 using BigCommerce. Not a huge difference, but if you make a lot of transactions, it can start to add up.</p> <p>However, if you don’t use Shopify Payments, the extra Shopify transaction fee will push the fee up to $5.20. That’s 69% more expensive than the BigCommerce processing fees! This is a big difference.</p> <p>In terms of adding features that are missing in one platform but available in the other, it’s pretty even. In Shopify, Advanced Reporting, Breadcrumbs, AMP Pages and Review are features that all merchants would benefit from. But the others will be niche specific.</p> <p>In BigCommerce, the missing Abandoned Cart Email and Email Marketing features are a big deal, but both can be provided by the same app. And you may find that the tax and shipping features provided in BigCommerce are already perfectly adequate and don’t require an app.</p> <p>On the other hand, product filtering is a really useful feature that you now get across all Shopify plans (as long as your theme is built with Online Store 2.0). With BigCommerce, you’ll need an app unless you’re on the BigCommerce Plus plan.</p> <h4><a id="post-101454-_85fbexhaokzl"></a>Shopify vs BigCommerce Plus Pricing</h4> <p>These plans are aimed at businesses that are growing, and again, in terms of the initial prices, they appear very similar.

by Braintree with BigCommerce. But if you don’t use Shopify Payments, you’ll pay $4.20, which is 45% more expensive than BigCommerce.</p> <p>On both platforms, features have been added to the plans that make some of the apps redundant. For example, with Shopify, you now get more advanced reporting. And with BigCommerce, the abandoned carts email feature is now included as a core feature.</p> <p>However, BigCommerce has a new feature that is not available in Shopify without the use of an app: a persistent card that enables customers to maintain the status of their shopping cart across different devices.</p> <h4><a id="post-101454-_bxkl3te5tdng"></a>Shopify Advanced vs BigCommerce Pro Pricing</h4> <p>The most advanced regular plans are aimed at businesses that intend to scale, and the prices of both jump significantly. Note that if you pay for Shopify, two years in advance, you will make quite a big saving here.</p> <h5 style="padding-bottom: 50px;">Shopify Advanced vs BigCommerce Pro Price Calculator</h5> <div

Braintree in BigCommerce. If you don’t use Shopify Payments, you’ll pay $3.70, which is 46% more expensive than BigCommerce.</p> <p>In <strong>BigCommerce Pro</strong>, you now get product filtering. You also get Google Reviews, which you will only get in Shopify if you buy an app (luckily it’s one of the few apps where the purchase price is a one off payment rather than a recurring monthly fee).</p> <p>However, in <strong>Shopify Advanced</strong>, you now have the ability to set different prices for the same product according to the country, which you couldn’t do in the lower price plans without the help of an app.</p> <h4><a id="post-101454-_fp0yo18b7yrz"></a>Shopify Plus vs BigCommerce Enterprise Pricing</h4> <p>Both Shopify and BigCommerce offer top-end plans that are really aimed at enterprise level businesses. These plans don’t have fixed prices. This is because they offer a degree of customization, and the price you finally pay will be dependent on that.</p> <p>However, both <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/en/reviews/shopify/plus/">Shopify Plus</a> and BigCommerce Enterprise are likely to cost in excess of $2,000 a month.</p> <p>Because we can’t be sure of the prices, it’s difficult to make a useful comparison between the Shopify Plus vs BigCommerce Enterprise. However, it is worth looking at the features that each plan offers that are not available in the lower priced plans.</p> <p>BigCommerce Enterprise includes the following extra features:</p> <ul> <li><a href="https://shipperhq.com/pricing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ShipperHQ Essentials</a> (for advanced shipping options) is included for free</li> <li>Multiple storefronts on one account</li> <li>Custom prices at the SKU level for customer groups</li> <li>Extra API calls and support</li> <li>Priority customer support</li> </ul> <p>Shopify Plus includes the following extra features:</p> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.shopify.com/pos/pricing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shopify POS Pro</a> is included for free</li> <li>Multiple stores under one admin</li> <li>Advanced apps</li> <li>Customizable checkout</li> <li>Additional API calls</li> <li>Ability to create your own password protected wholesale area</li> <li>More control over staff access</li> <li>Extra customer support and access to extra educational resources</li> </ul> <p>Some of the extra features on both plans are a bit vague. The important thing to recognize here is that these plans allow you to create your own bespoke system, with personalized help from the platform’s staff.</p> <h3><a id="post-101454-_xj2eeb20270p"></a>Round 1 Winner: Draw</h3> <p>There are too many variables to say which platform has the better pricing regarding Shopify vs BigCommerce.</p> <p>With BigCommerce, you need to be aware of the sales caps on each plan, as you will be automatically forced onto a higher priced plan, if they’re exceeded. While with Shopify, you need to know whether you can use Shopify Payments or not, as if you don’t, your transaction costs will be much higher.</p> <p>And for both plans, you need to think about the extra cost of any apps that you will need to purchase to achieve the functionality you require in your store.</p> <p>You can read more about <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/en/reviews/bigcommerce/bigcommerce-pricing/">BigCommerce pricing</a> and <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/en/reviews/shopify/pricing/">Shopify pricing</a> in our in depth articles.

This is partly true, but remember: there’s a lot to learn, and a lot of content to add <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/en/blog/how-long-does-it-take-to-build-an-ecommerce-website/">before you can launch your online store</a>.</p> <p>This includes adding each product and variants, shipping fees, tax information and more. Plus making any design and layout changes to the storefront.

While this may be true, it’s important to stress that this isn’t because BigCommerce provides a poor user experience.</p> <p>In fact, Shopify and BigCommerce have very similar user interfaces, which are both well-designed and bug free. Plus, both platforms provide a ton of useful documentation and guidance to get you started.</p> <p>However, the sheer number of features you get out of the box with BigCommerce means you’re presented with tons of options for whatever task you’re trying to complete, and this can feel overwhelming sometimes.</p> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-95615 size-full" src="https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-store-interface-1.png" alt="BigCommerce store interface" width="1400" height="768" srcset="https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-store-interface-1.png 1400w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-store-interface-1-300x165.png 300w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-store-interface-1-1024x562.png 1024w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-store-interface-1-768x421.png 768w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-store-interface-1-1200x658.png 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px" /></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>BigCommerce Store Interface</em></p> <p>So in a way, BigCommerce is less easy to learn how to use, simply because it offers so many features!</p> <table> <thead> <tr> <th style="width: 30%;"></th> <th style="width: 35%; text-align: center;">Shopify</th> <th style="width: 35%; text-align: center;">BigCommerce</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>Quick tour to help you get started</td> <td style="text-align: center;"> No</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Support documentation</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes, (<a href="https://www.tooltester.com/out/shopify-vs-bigcommerce-taxes" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Tax Settings</a> for example)</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes (<a href="https://www.tooltester.com/out/bigcommerce-vs-shopify-ssl" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">SSL Overview</a> for example).</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Adding products and variations</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Very easy</td> <td style="text-align: center;">A few more clicks to make</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Integration with external apps.</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes – Quickbooks, Xero and Freshbooks are supported.</td> <td style="text-align: center;"> Same</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <h3><a id="post-101454-_noka0ghgyk9j"></a>Round 2 Winner: Shopify.</h3> <p>They are both easy to use, but Shopify wins because there is a steeper learning curve with BigCommerce due to the number of options.</p> <p>Note: ecommerce website builders like Wix and Squarespace don’t offer the same range of features, but are much easier to use than both BigCommerce and Shopify. Read our <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/en/reviews/wix-review/ecommerce/">Wix ecommerce review</a>, our <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/en/reviews/squarespace-review/ecommerce/">Squarespace ecommerce review</a>, or see how they all compare in our <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/en/best-ecommerce-website-builder/">best ecommerce website builder</a> guide!</p> <p>It’s also worth noting that if you’re struggling to use either platform, they both provide directories of authorized specialists, who you can hire to help develop your store. In the case of BigCommerce, it’s the <a href="https://partners.bigcommerce.com/directory/home.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Partner Directory</a>. While Shopify has a <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/en/blog/shopify-experts/">Shopify Experts</a> service.</p> <h2><a id="themes-and-flexibility"></a>Round 3: Themes and Flexibility</h2> <p>Themes (which are made from a series of template files), dictate the design and user experience of your online store. And they are one of the most important points to consider when choosing between BigCommerce vs Shopify.</p> <p>I can’t objectively tell you which themes look the best, because this is purely based on your aesthetic preferences. But there are a few other things we can measure, such as the number and variety of available themes, how much they cost and how easy they are to edit.</p> <h3><a id="post-101454-_w54gj3ud8zoq"></a>Theme Stores</h3> <p>If you look at the numbers above, you might think that BigCommerce has loads more themes than Shopify.</p> <p>However, you would be wrong!</p> <p>Although there are 191 themes in the <a href="https://www.bigcommerce.com/theme-store/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BigCommerce Theme Marketplace</a>, many of them are variations of the same theme (e.g. Geneva Bold, Geneva Pastel, Geneva Colorful, Geneva Grey).</p> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-95631 size-full" src="https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-theme-marketplace-1.png" alt="BigCommerce Theme Marketplace" width="1400" height="1037" srcset="https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-theme-marketplace-1.png 1400w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-theme-marketplace-1-300x222.png 300w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-theme-marketplace-1-1024x758.png 1024w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-theme-marketplace-1-768x569.png 768w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-theme-marketplace-1-122x90.png 122w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-theme-marketplace-1-1200x889.png 1200w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-theme-marketplace-1-243x180.png 243w" sizes="(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px" /></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>BigCommerce Theme Marketplace</em></p> <p>What’s more, in many cases, these variations are nothing more than slight differences in the color palette (e.g. <a href="https://www.bigcommerce.com/theme/vault-bright/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Vault Bright</a>, Vault Cool, Vault Natural), with everything else being exactly the same!</p> <p>So in reality, the BigCommerce Theme Marketplace offers far less than 191 distinct themes.</p> <p>Conversely, although there are just 93 themes in the <a href="https://themes.shopify.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shopify Theme Store</a>, any variations are not included in that number. If Shopify counted every variation as a separate theme (as BigCommerce does), the number would be much higher.</p> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1400" height="942" class="wp-image-101463 aligncenter" src="https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-theme-store.jpeg" alt="Shopify Theme Store" srcset="https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-theme-store.jpeg 1400w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-theme-store-300x202.jpeg 300w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-theme-store-1024x689.jpeg 1024w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-theme-store-768x517.jpeg 768w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-theme-store-1200x807.jpeg 1200w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-theme-store-268x180.jpeg 268w" sizes="(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px" /></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>Shopify Theme Store</em></p> <p>The variations of each theme are generally more distinct with Shopify, too. Each variation often looks like a completely different theme (e.g. <a href="https://themes.shopify.com/themes/minimal/styles/vintage" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Minimal Vintage</a>, Minimal Fashion, Minimal Modern).</p> <h3><a id="post-101454-_re9z62bt6v8l"></a>Free Themes</h3> <p>If we look specifically at the free themes available from BigCommerce and Shopify, it’s the same story…</p> <p>Although there are 12 free themes in the BigCommerce Marketplace, if we don’t count the variations, there are only 5 distinct free themes.</p> <p>And while there are 17 distinct free themes in the Shopify Theme Store, 9 of those come with 2 or more variations (which involve more than just color changes)! Read about the best <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/en/blog/free-shopify-themes/">free Shopify themes</a> (and how they differ from paid ones).</p> <p>So for BigCommerce vs Shopify in terms of the variety of themes, Shopify definitely comes out on top.</p> <h3><a id="post-101454-_roo3kkimvj3r"></a>Theme Customization</h3> <p>But how is easy is it to edit your themes?

They just look a bit fresher and up to date.</p> <p>But more importantly: you get more variety with the Shopify themes, and you get a little more freedom if you decide to tweak them through the page editor.</p> <p>Take a look at some real world <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/en/blog/shopify-examples/">Shopify example stores</a> and read what their owners like and dislike about the platform.</p> <h2><a id="product-presentation-and-features"></a>Round 4: Product Presentation and Features</h2> <p>After choosing your theme, you’ll want to fill your online store with products and present those products to your customers! Which ecommerce platform helps you more here: Shopify or BigCommerce?</p> <h3><a id="post-101454-_htldxpa7bmmm"></a>Product Options</h3> <p>When it comes to the kinds of products you can add to your store, <strong>BigCommerce is a big winner</strong> in the battle between BigCommerce vs Shopify! You simply get far more control and flexibility with BigCommerce.</p> <p>For example, if you need to add options to your products (e.g. size, color, material, finish, etc.), Shopify limits you to just 3 options for each product! While with BigCommerce, you can add up to 250 options to each product (and it will automatically generate SKUs for each variant!).</p> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-95663 size-full" src="https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-variant-options-1.png" alt="BigCommerce variant options" width="1400" height="729" srcset="https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-variant-options-1.png 1400w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-variant-options-1-300x156.png 300w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-variant-options-1-1024x533.png 1024w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-variant-options-1-768x400.png 768w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/bigcommerce-variant-options-1-1200x625.png 1200w" sizes="(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px" /></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>Add up to 250 options to each product in BigCommerce</em></p> <p>So let’s say you sell a bike saddle, which is available in different sizes, different colors, different materials and with different rivets, (e.g. large, brown, leather, chrome rivets).

Well, as always, that depends!</p> <h3><a id="post-101454-_gkpsc45lpvyg"></a>Payment Gateways</h3> <p>In order to process payments through credit and debit cards, you will need to use a <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Payment_gateway" target="_blank" rel="noopener">payment gateway</a>. A payment gateway is basically a software service that authorizes the card payment from the customer to the merchant.</p> <p>There are hundreds of different payment gateways, and popular examples include PayPal, Stripe, Square, Authorize.net, and Braintree.</p> <p>It’s important to note that you can’t take payments from credit or debit cards unless you use a payment gateway. All payment gateways will charge a processing fee, which varies according to the gateway and which country you’re in.</p> <p>Shopify allows you to connect to <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/out/shopify-vs-bigcommerce-gateways" target="_blank" rel="noopener">over 100 different payment gateways</a>, while with BigCommerce you can <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/out/bigcommerce-vs-shopify-gateways" target="_blank" rel="noopener">choose from just over 65</a>.</p> <p>However, I wouldn’t worry about this difference in numbers regarding Shopify vs BigCommerce: whichever platform you choose, the vast majority of your customers will be able to pay through their preferred method.</p> <p>Much more important are the preferred payment gateways of the two platforms, and the fees you’ll be charged according to the gateway and the plan you choose.</p> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1400" height="1082" class="wp-image-101495 aligncenter" src="https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-payments.png" alt="Shopify Payments" srcset="https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-payments.png 1400w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-payments-300x232.png 300w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-payments-1024x791.png 1024w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-payments-768x594.png 768w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-payments-1200x927.png 1200w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/shopify-payments-233x180.png 233w" sizes="(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px" /></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>Shopify Payments: their own payment gateway!</em></p> <p>Shopify’s preferred payment gateway is their own service, <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/en/blog/shopify-payments/">Shopify Payments</a>. Shopify Payments is super easy to set up: you can activate it with one click in your store settings. Plus, it has <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/out/shopify-vs-bigcommerce-prices" target="_blank" rel="noopener">very competitive processing fees</a>.</p> <p>However, if you decide to use a different payment gateway, (instead of Shopify Payments), <strong>Shopify will charge you a transaction fee on top</strong> of whatever processing fee you’re charged by the payment gateway!</p> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-95711 size-full" src="https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/paypal-and-stripe-are-the-default-payment-options-1.png" alt="PayPal and Stripe are the default payment options in BigCommerce" width="1400" height="1008" srcset="https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/paypal-and-stripe-are-the-default-payment-options-1.png 1400w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/paypal-and-stripe-are-the-default-payment-options-1-300x216.png 300w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/paypal-and-stripe-are-the-default-payment-options-1-1024x737.png 1024w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/paypal-and-stripe-are-the-default-payment-options-1-768x553.png 768w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/paypal-and-stripe-are-the-default-payment-options-1-1200x864.png 1200w, https://www.tooltester.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/paypal-and-stripe-are-the-default-payment-options-1-250x180.png 250w" sizes="(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px" /></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><em>PayPal powered by Braintree: BigCommerce’s preferred payment gateway</em></p> <p>BigCommerce’s preferred payment gateway is PayPal, powered by Braintree. This is also super easy to set up and has <a href="https://www.bigcommerce.com/paypal-rates/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">very competitive fees</a>. However, importantly: if you choose to use another payment gateway, BigCommerce, unlike Shopify, won’t charge you extra transaction fees.</p> <p>What does all this mean in real life? Let’s look at the fees you would pay on a $100 transaction in the United States, using three different payment gateway options:</p> <ul> <li>Shopify Payments</li> <li>BigCommerce’s PayPal powered by Braintree</li> <li>Shopify and Stripe</li> </ul> <h4>Fees Paid on $100 Transaction</h4> <table> <thead> <tr> <th></th> <th style="text-align: center;">BigCommerce<br /> (PayPal & Braintree)</th> <th style="text-align: center;">Shopify Payments</th> <th style="text-align: center;">Shopify & Stripe</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>Entry Level Plan</td> <td style="text-align: center;"><strong>$3.08</strong><br /> (2.59% + $0.49)</td> <td style="text-align: center;"><strong>$3.20</strong><br /> (2.9% + $0.30)</td> <td style="text-align: center;"><strong>$5.20</strong><br /> (2% + 2.9% +$0.30)</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Medium Level Plan</td> <td style="text-align: center;"><strong>$2.84</strong><br /> (2.35% + $0.49)</td> <td style="text-align: center;"><strong>$2.90</strong><br /> (2.6% + $0.30)</td> <td style="text-align: center;"><strong>$4.20</strong><br /> (1% + 2.9% +$0.30)</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Advanced Level Plan</td> <td style="text-align: center;"><strong>$2.54</strong><br /> (2.05% + $0.49)</td> <td style="text-align: center;"><strong>$2.70</strong><br /> (2.4% + $0.30)</td> <td style="text-align: center;"><strong>$3.70</strong><br /> (0.5% + 2.9% +$0.30)</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p>As you can see, if you choose to use Shopify Payments, then the payment gateway fees are more or less the same as you’ll pay with BigCommerce (using PayPal with Braintree), although the BigCommerce fees are a little lower on the higher priced plans.</p> <p>But: if you choose not to use Shopify Payments (in our example we use Stripe instead), the fees you pay on each transaction are significantly higher than in BigCommerce!</p> <p>So why not just always use Shopify Payments?</p> <p>Well, apart from the fact that this makes a joke of the idea that Shopify gives you the choice of over 100 other payment gateways, Shopify Payments is only available in the following countries (<a href="https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/payments/shopify-payments/shopify-payments-requirements#supported-countries-and-regions" target="_blank" rel="noopener">check this list is up-to-date here</a>):</p> <ul> <li>Australia</li> <li>Austria</li> <li>Belgium</li> <li>Canada</li> <li>Denmark</li> <li>Germany</li> <li>Hong Kong SAR</li> <li>Ireland</li> <li>Italy</li> <li>Japan</li> <li>Netherlands</li> <li>New Zealand</li> <li>Singapore</li> <li>Spain</li> <li>Sweden</li> <li>United Kingdom</li> <li>United States (except Puerto Rico).</li> </ul> <p>So, if you’re lucky enough to live in one of these countries, great: you can use the one payment gateway (Shopify Payments), where the fees are relatively competitive with BigCommerce.</p> <p>If you don’t live in one of these countries, or your <a href="https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/payments/shopify-payments/shopify-payments-requirements#prohibited-businesses" target="_blank" rel="noopener">business model is prohibited by Shopify Payments</a>, then the fees you pay on each transaction will be significantly higher than with BigCommerce.</p> <table> <thead> <tr> <th style="width: 30%;"></th> <th style="width: 35%; text-align: center;">Shopify</th> <th style="width: 35%; text-align: center;">BigCommerce</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>Paypal</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Credit Card payments via gateway processors (Authorize.net, Stripe etc…)</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes – <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/out/shopify-vs-bigcommerce-gateways" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">more than 100 gateways</a>.

You will only pay the payment processing fees that the payment gateway themselves charge.</p> <p>BigCommerce has negotiated very competitive fees with their preferred gateways. And you are free to shop around different payment gateways without being penalized.</p> <p>This means you get more choice and better deals with BigCommerce vs Shopify! So it’s a clear winner here.</p> <h2><a id="customer-logins"></a>Round 6: Customer Logins and Checkout Features</h2> <p>Both Shopify and BigCommerce give you full control over whether customers are required to create accounts to complete their purchases. You can force them to create an account, or allow them to shop as guests.</p> <p>However, in terms of checkout options, while they are broadly similar, there are differences to consider with BigCommerce vs Shopify.</p> <h3><a id="post-101454-_h3ykcib83bn7"></a>Upsells</h3> <p>Both platforms require paid apps to get the most out of upsells. But only Shopify has an app (<a href="https://apps.shopify.com/zipify-oneclickupsell" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Zipify</a>), that enables powerful “<a href="https://buildwoofunnels.com/one-click-upsells-the-definitive-guide/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">one click upsells</a>” (where products are promoted after payment details are sent, but before the thank-you page).</p> <h3><a id="post-101454-_5qs9xpdtz3iq"></a>Abandoned Cart Emails</h3> <p>Another powerful marketing tool is the abandoned carts email tool, which allows you to send reminder emails to customers who have added items to their cart but not completed their purchase.</p> <p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-95783 size-full"

available on the cheapest BigCommerce plan.</p> <p>Since it’s such a powerful tool, this is a big difference, especially if you’re trying to decide between the most basic plans regarding BigCommerce vs Shopify. However, <a href="https://www.bigcommerce.com/apps/omnisend/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">there is an app</a> that can give you this functionality without having to upgrade your plan.</p> <h3><a id="post-101454-_q908fo3asejl"></a>Gift Cards, Coupons and Store Credits</h3> <p>Other than this, both BigCommerce and Shopify offer the ability to create gift cards and provide robust coupon code features. However, only BigCommerce allows you to <a href="https://support.bigcommerce.com/s/article/Giving-Customers-a-Store-Credit?language=en_US" target="_blank" rel="noopener">give customers store credits</a>.</p> <table> <thead> <tr> <th style="width: 30%;"></th> <th style="width: 35%; text-align: center;">Shopify</th> <th style="width: 35%; text-align: center;">BigCommerce</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>No customer account needed (disabled)</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Must sign-in to buy (mandatory)</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Can sign in to buy (optional)</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Manual add customers</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Import customer lists via CSV</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Export customer lists via CSV</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> </tr> <tr> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Abandoned cart emails</span></td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Requires <a href="https://www.bigcommerce.com/apps/recapture/">a paid app</a> or higher plan</td> </tr> <tr> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Offering customers store credit</span></td> <td style="text-align: center;">Requires <a href="https://apps.shopify.com/my-store-credit">a paid app</a></td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <h3><a id="post-101454-_5vzjybc3jpwx"></a>Round 6 Winner: Draw</h3> <p>The most important difference in terms of checkout features is probably the abandoned cart email functionality. But whether Shopify or BigCommerce is best depends on which plan you’re looking at.</p> <p>If you’re considering the <strong>entry level plans, then Shopify wins</strong>, as only Shopify has abandoned cart functionality in this plan. However, if you’re considering the <strong>higher priced plans, BigCommerce wins</strong>, as its implementation of the feature is more powerful.</p> <h2><a id="shipping-options"></a>Round 7: Shipping Options</h2> <p>Shipping is one of those areas that can quickly become a logistical nightmare for small online store owners. So you’ll be happy to learn that both Shopify and BigCommerce provide some super helpful shipping options, as you can see in the table below.</p> <p>But in the battle between Shopify vs BigCommerce, who does shipping best? Who has the most shipping options? Who makes it easiest? Who provides the most value? Well, it’s quite complicated! Let’s take a look.</p> <h3><a id="post-101454-_o2ndpdadcig8"></a>Shipping Rate Options</h3> <p>Both BigCommerce and Shopify give you a nice range of options when it comes to shipping rates:</p> <ul> <li>Free</li> <li>Flat rate</li> <li>Based on weight</li> <li>Based on price</li> <li>Real time quotes direct from the carriers</li> </ul> <p>Real time shipping quotes enable both you and your customers to know the exact shipping cost of their order before they buy, according to the size and weight of their purchase and their location.

As such, it includes, the short term storage, picking, packaging and delivery of each order.</p> <p>If you don’t want to fulfill your orders yourself, you can use third party services. All you need to do is send your inventory to their warehouses, and they will take care of everything else!</p> <p>Both Shopify and BigCommerce provide integrations with such third party fulfillment services through various apps. However, only Shopify has its own fulfillment service: the <a href="https://www.shopify.com/fulfillment" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shopify Fulfillment Network</a>.</p> <p>You have to apply to join the Shopify Fulfillment Network, and there are <a href="https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/shipping/shopify-fulfillment-network/sfn-overview/product-eligibility" target="_blank" rel="noopener">various conditions</a> your Shopify store must meet before you are accepted.

So you market the products and take the orders, while another party actually owns the stock and fulfills those orders.</p> <p>You can run a dropshipping business through both Shopify and BigCommerce. However, Shopify probably does it best, due to powerful solutions like the <a href="https://www.tooltester.com/out/shopify-dsers" target="_blank" rel="noopener">DSers</a> AliExpress dropshipping app. In contrast, BigCommerce has fewer dropshipping apps, and they’re not as impressive.</p> <table> <thead> <tr> <th style="width: 30%;"></th> <th style="width: 35%; text-align: center;">Shopify</th> <th style="width: 35%; text-align: center;">BigCommerce</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>Free shipping, flat rate, ship by weight</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Real-time shipping quotes from FedEx, USPS and UPS</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Create shipping rules per US state and world zone</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Let users know their geographical zone is not supported</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Print and buy shipping labels</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes – USPS and Canada Post – more via apps</td> <td style="text-align: center;">Yes – USPS is native.

But only if you qualify for <a href="https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/shipping/shopify-shipping" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shopify Shipping</a>.</p> <p>With Shopify Shipping, you get access to real time shipping quotes and significant discounts from multiple carriers. You can also buy and print out shipping labels from those carriers without the need for an app.</p> <p>With BigCommerce, the shipping discounts are less significant , and you will need to <a href="https://www.bigcommerce.com/apps/shipstation/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pay for a separate app</a> to buy and print your shipping labels, unless you’re solely using USPS in the US.</p> <p>I don’t like the fact that Shopify Shipping is limited to certain countries. But the list is growing all the time and since this review is in English and all the major English-speaking countries are already on that list, there’s a very good chance you qualify!</p> <p>The extra dropshipping options and Shopify Fulfillment Network also give Shopify a further edge in this round.</p> <h2><a id="tax-features"></a>Round 8: Tax Features</h2> <p>Both BigCommerce and Shopify give you complete control over your tax settings. You can set up tax rules by location or by product. And if you need more help or control, both platforms integrate with various third party tax apps.</p> <p>In Shopify, you still can’t hide the taxes in the shopping cart without tweaking the HTML (although this is very straightforward).
