Decision guide
Which Shopify plan is best for you?
The best Shopify plan is the cheapest one that covers how you sell today. For most brand-new stores that is Basic; side hustles and social sellers can start on Starter; growing teams move to Grow or Advanced; and high-volume or wholesale businesses choose Plus. Shopify POS is an add-on, not a level — you can add in-person selling to any of these plans at any time.
I sell through social media or a link-in-bio
Starter is best — product links and a simple checkout without paying for a full storefront.
I'm launching my first online store
Basic is best — a full storefront, unlimited products, and gift cards at the lowest full-store price.
My store is growing and I have staff
Grow is best — staff accounts, professional reports, and lower card rates as orders climb.
I run an established brand at higher volume
Advanced is best — advanced reporting, more locations, and the best online card rates.
I sell wholesale or at very high volume
Plus is best — checkout customization, B2B tools, automation, and expansion stores.
I also sell in person or at markets
Any plan plus POS — Shopify POS can be added to any plan level and keeps in-store and online inventory in sync.

Shopify app development
Custom Shopify apps, built and running in real stores.
Beyond helping you pick a plan and launch, we build custom Shopify apps for problems the app store cannot solve. Here is one we shipped that is live in production today.
Farmer Brad Weighted Variant
Built for a working farm store on Shopify
Selling food by weight is awkward in a standard Shopify catalog — a package of beef is never exactly one pound. The Weighted Variant app lets Farmer Brad list products with approximate weights and per-pound pricing, then charges customers for the exact weight of what ships.
- Per-pound pricing with approximate package weights on every listing
- Orders adjust to the exact weighed amount before payment is captured
- Works alongside regular fixed-weight products in the same store
- Runs in the Shopify admin — no spreadsheets or manual refunds
Need something custom too?
If your products, pricing, or workflow do not fit off-the-shelf apps, we can build one for your store — from weighted and unit-based selling to inventory, fulfillment, and reporting tools. Tell us what you need in the form below and we will scope it with you.
