Ecwid or Shoopy?
The honest comparison.
One adds a shop to your site. The other is the shop.
Four numbers that change the answer.
An add-on. Or the whole store.
Ecwid bolts a cart onto your site. Shoopy is the store.
Ecwid
- You already have a site you like and only want to bolt a cart onto it
- You sell a handful of products and want the cheapest serious option
- You want to sell the same catalogue across several different sites
- No per-order fee matters more to you than depth of storefront
Shoopy
- You want a real storefront, not a widget inside someone else’s page
- Your catalogue will outgrow a product cap
- Official WhatsApp integration, tax invoicing and a branded app included
- A human on WhatsApp instead of an email queue

Cheap to start. Check where it ends.
Pick your monthly sales.
Ecwid caps products. Shoopy caps nothing.
Ecwid prices by how many products you list, so a growing catalogue moves you up tiers regardless of how much you actually sell. Shoopy prices by plan, with a per-order fee that only begins after a free allowance. Which is cheaper depends entirely on your shape.

What Shoopy has that Ecwid doesn't.
Only what changes your working day.
A storefront, not an embed
Ecwid renders inside a page you host elsewhere, limiting layout, checkout and SEO. Shoopy is the site.
Official WhatsApp integration
Order updates and cart recovery on the channel customers actually read. Ecwid has no native WhatsApp channel.
A branded mobile app, published for you
From ₹3,999/yr in your own developer account. Ecwid offers no branded consumer app at all.
Tax invoicing built in
Compliant numbering, tax breakdowns and filing exports, not an App Market subscription.
Delivery agent app
Assign orders to your own riders. Ecwid integrates couriers but nothing for your own staff.
No product ceiling to plan around
Shoopy Basic carries 500 products; Ecwid Starter carries 10. Ecwid charges you for listing stock you have not sold.

50,000+ businesses. One playbook.
Composite scenarios, category averages.
“The catalogue hit the ceiling.”
We added a second product line and suddenly the plan tier was about how many things we listed, not how much we sold. That felt backwards.
“It stopped looking bolted on.”
The cart sat inside our old site and always looked like a visitor. Now the store is the site, on our domain, and it finally reads as one brand.
“Repeat orders came back.”
Order updates on WhatsApp plus our own app changed repeat buying more than any discount we ran.
