Shopify Plus brings scale and is packed with more advanced features and tools than Shopify. The word \u201cPlus\u201d signifies the definite advantage ShopifyPlus offers to store owners in terms of lower transaction fees as compared to the basic Shopify plan.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Below are the major differences between Shopify Plus and Shopify:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Shopify Plus allows higher level of customization<\/strong><br \/>\nShopifyPlus offers rich features and tools to customize your eCommerce store exactly as per your specifications. Now you can modify the look and feel of your storefront, product pages and checkout page and make them more responsive. You can also customize your payment processing features.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Shopify Plus offers more staff accounts for bigger businesses<\/strong><br \/>\nIf there are more than 15 people in your organization, ShopifyPlus will be ideal for your needs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>No programming knowledge is required for Shopify Plus<\/strong><br \/>\nShopify Plus provides ease of use. You can simply add or remove a product and the change happens in the backend automatically. As Order Management becomes simple, you can focus more on marketing and design. You can also do integration with channels likes Facebook, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, Kik, and Amazon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Shopify Plus has features for international eCommerce<\/strong><br \/>\nShopify Plus offers a clone store or a multi-store feature through which store owners, especially those with regional stores, or in wholesaling business, can create multiple versions of their store under one account. Shopif Plus supports multiple languages and international currencies and promotes international eCommerce. This clone option is not available in Shopify.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Transaction fees are lower with Shopify Plus<\/strong><br \/>\nA big advantage of Shopify Plus is its low transaction fees of less than 0.2 percent, depending on the store\u2019s revenue. It can even be as low as 0 percent, but credit card processing fees still apply. Compared to this Shopify\u2019s standard transaction fees is 0.5 percent to 2 percent. Therefore Shopify Plus is definitely an advantage when there is a high volume of transactions happening in your store.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>ShopifyPlus offers a higher level of support<\/strong><br \/>\nShopify Plus provides dedicated account managers that include launch managers, merchant success managers, and 24\/7 priority support.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Launch managers provide support and technical assistance in migration and development. The merchant success managers provide support in billing, sales channels and more functions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Pricing and fees with ShopifyPlus are lower as compared to Shopify<\/strong><br \/>\nShopify Plus is a global platform and there is a custom fees for using it depending upon the volume of sales and needs of the business. This could include design needs, technology and growth variables.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The advantage here is that these costs can be budgeted for on a monthly basis and work out to be far more advantageous than Shopify in which the store owner has to take care of servers, bugs, feature implementation, order management, bandwidth, file storage etc.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Users of Shopify and Shopify Plus are different<\/strong><br \/>\nShopify Plus is a powerful and reliable platform and companies who use it are typically large ventures, wholesalers and enterprise level eCommerce stores. On the other hand Shopify is used mostly by small and mid-level businesses.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Areas where Shopify Plus may not work<\/strong><br \/>\nThere are some businesses where ShopifyPlus may not be suitable. Shopify Plus is built for eCommerce stores and will not work in content-rich sites that require blogs. Secondly, as it is a hosted platform, all modifications need to be done either through the front-end or Shopify&#8217;s own API. One cannot customize things on the backend, as that feature is not available in ShopifyPlus.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Conclusion: Building your own store using Shopify<\/strong><br \/>\nStore owners need to carefully evaluate the pros and cons of using ShopifyPlus and Shopify and accordingly decide which version will be best for their business. By reviewing the above differences, they can arrive at a decision easily.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.techindiasoftware.com\">TechIndia Software<\/a><\/strong> has expertise and experienced software professionals with skill-set in all aspects of Shopify.
