Mr Web’s take
Get it if you
- Want to sell online without managing hosting, updates or security
- Are starting a store and want three months to build it for $3
- Sell physical or digital products and want checkout, payments and inventory in one place
Skip it if you
- Need full code-level control of your store; WooCommerce suits you better
- Won’t use Shopify Payments, which adds an extra fee per sale on third-party gateways
- Run a hobby store where the monthly fee would outweigh the sales
The verdict: for most people starting an online store, Shopify is the fastest way from idea to first sale. Start on Basic, use the three $1 months to build and launch, and only move up a plan once the sales justify it.

Questions about this deal
Is there a free Shopify plan?
No. Shopify has no permanent free plan. You get a 3-day free trial, then $1 a month for your first 3 months on Basic, Grow or Advanced.
Which plan should I start on?
Basic, for most new stores. Grow and Advanced add staff accounts, better reporting and lower payment rates, which only pay off once your sales volume is higher.
Are there transaction fees?
Not if you use Shopify Payments. If you use a third-party payment gateway, Shopify adds 2% per sale on Basic, 1% on Grow and 0.6% on Advanced.
Is monthly or annual billing better?
Annual billing saves 25%, but the $1 offer applies to monthly plans. Use the $1 months first, then switch to annual once you know the store is working.
Does Mr Web earn from this link?
Yes. Mr Web may earn a commission if you sign up through this link, at no extra cost to you. The price you pay is the same.
