Squarespace or Shoopy?
The honest comparison.
One is a design tool that added a shop. The other is a shop. Here's the side-by-side, sourced.
Four numbers that change the answer.
Beautiful templates. Or built to sell.
Squarespace leads on design. Shoopy leads on what an Indian store actually runs on.
Squarespace
- Design is the priority and you want the most polished templates available
- You sell a small range, or services and appointments rather than stock
- You want site, blog and store from one well-made editor
- Dollar billing and a 3% fee on the entry plan are acceptable to you
Shoopy
- ₹2,499/yr, around a seventh of the Squarespace entry plan
- 0.6–1% per order, capped at ₹5, and only after your first 250
- Official WhatsApp integration, GST invoicing and a branded app included
- Billed in rupees, so your cost does not move with the exchange rate

Same sales. Two different bills.
Pick your monthly sales and see the math change.
Design is one bill. Selling is another.
Squarespace only removes its transaction fee once you move up to Core, and every plan is billed in dollars, so your rupee cost moves with the exchange rate. Shoopy prices in rupees and caps the per-order fee at ₹5.
The comparison you've been looking for.
Squarespace converted from USD at ₹96/$, annual billing. Shoopy from shoopy.in/pricing.

What Shoopy has that Squarespace doesn't.
Only the things that change your working day. No feature-list padding.
Official WhatsApp integration
Order updates and cart recovery on the channel customers read. Squarespace has no WhatsApp ordering.
GST invoicing built in
Compliant invoicing and filing-ready exports as part of the platform, not a third-party extension.
A branded native app
From ₹14,999/yr, published in your own developer account. Squarespace offers no branded consumer app.
Priced in rupees
No exchange-rate exposure on your platform bill, and no dollar card needed to pay it.
Delivery agent app
Assign orders to your own riders and track them. Squarespace integrates couriers only.
Indian payment gateways
Razorpay, Cashfree, Easebuzz and PhonePe natively rather than through workarounds.

50,000+ businesses. One playbook.
Composite scenarios based on category averages.
“Our bill dropped sharply.”
Once the plan, the fees and the add-ons were added up honestly, the old platform was our largest software line. The yearly plan changed the equation.
“Two tools became none.”
We ran WhatsApp on one app and GST invoices on another. On Shoopy the official WhatsApp integration and tax invoicing are part of the product.
“Someone actually answers.”
A courier dispute used to mean a ticket and a wait. A WhatsApp reply from a real person sorted it before the customer called again.
