Every sale you make, somebody takes a slice. The question is how many somebodies.
On Shopify you pay a monthly plan. Then, as of October 2026, its pricing page says third-party transaction fees may apply when you use a payment provider other than Shopify Payments, at a rate set by your plan. Keep the gateway you already use, and the platform takes its cut on top of the gateway’s.
And the store is theirs. Your theme, your checkout and your catalog live on a hosted platform you rent.

Your site. Your gateway. Your money.
WP EasyCart installs into the WordPress site you already have. Your store is three ordinary pages, Store, Cart and Account, with your SEO, your hosting and your customer list staying put. The free plugin has unlimited products, orders and customers.
With PRO there is no per-sale WP EasyCart fee, on any gateway. Pick from more than 40: Stripe, Square, PayPal, Authorize.net, Moneris, WorldPay and the rest. You pay your gateway’s fees and your plan. That’s it. (The free edition adds 2% on Stripe, Square and PayPal; PRO removes it.)
Shipping, tax, offers, abandoned carts, documents and subscriptions come in the same plugin. No app store between you and your checkout.
Where: WP Admin › EasyCart › Settings › Payments & Taxes › Payment. Plan: PRO or Premium. See every payment feature.
