The best free Shopify alternative

Systeme.io is the best free Shopify alternative to launch your store and scale your business effortlessly

Stop paying extra fees

Shopify charges an extra 2% fee if you don’t use their specific payment gateway. Systeme.io charges 0% transaction fees regardless of whether you use Stripe, PayPal, or any other integration

Save $468 every year

Shopify’s entry-level Basic plan costs $39 when billed monthly. With systeme.io, you can launch your business, sell products, and build your brand for $0/month. Keep your capital for inventory and ads

Send unlimited emails

Shopify offers 10,000 free emails, but advanced automation often requires expensive apps like Klaviyo. Systeme.io gives you unlimited email sending and a visual workflow builder for free

Why choose systeme.io over Shopify?

Build funnels, not just stores

Shopify restricts you to a standard e-commerce grid layout. Systeme.io gives you 3 complete sales funnels on the Free plan. Use squeeze pages and long-form sales letters to sell specific products at higher conversion rates

Optimize your revenue

To do order bumps and 1-click upsells on Shopify, you usually need paid plugins. Systeme.io includes these revenue-boosting features natively. Increase your average order value instantly

Host courses natively

Shopify is great for physical goods but requires clumsy apps to sell courses. Systeme.io is built for both. Host your video courses and manage student access directly on the Free plan without needing a separate LMS
