Leaving Shoppy?

ByteSell takes 0% on every plan, and your buyers pay straight into your own Stripe, PayPal or crypto wallet.

Get started

Shoppy runs a free plan with unlimited orders and products, automated delivery of files, serials and API-generated goods, and money paid into your own PayPal, Stripe or the Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin addresses you enter.

The turn is arithmetic. Shoppy takes 5% of every sale on that free plan, and the only way down is the 4% Business plan, printed as $29 a month billed annually, which is also where a custom domain starts.

The 10 best Shoppy alternatives for automated digital goods delivery

  1. ByteSellOur pick

    The move if the 5% is the whole complaint and you still want money going straight to your own accounts. Nothing is deducted on any plan, crypto settles to a wallet you control, and Discord or Telegram access is granted automatically on payment. The free tier’s storage is the thing to check.

    Pros

    • Nothing is taken per sale on the free plan or either paid plan
    • Crypto settles to a wallet address you control, with no intermediary balance
    • Paid Discord and Telegram access grants on payment and revokes when it lapses
    • Coupons, affiliates and the reseller network cost nothing extra on any tier

    Cons

    • Licence keys come from a pool of strings you upload, with no activation API
    • Free storage totals 500 MB and no single file may exceed 50 MB
    • Pro at $29 is where a custom domain and branding removal begin
    • The free plan keeps seven days of analytics history and meters events at 10,000 a month

    Shoppy would take, in a year

    $1,500and ByteSell would take none of it

    On a $50 product selling 50 times a month, at 5%. ByteSell is 0% on every plan including the free one, and the buyer pays your own Stripe, PayPal or wallet, so nothing is held in the middle.

    Free plan, no card, keep every cent of every sale.

  2. SellAuth

    Built for the same buyer Shoppy is, and it charges nothing per sale on every tier. A custom domain is $9.99 a month rather than an annual commitment, and VPN, TOR, country and ASN blocking come with the paid plans. Files are capped at 100 MB however much you pay.

    Pros

    • Every tier charges 0% of the sale, including the free one
    • Business at $9.99 a month adds a custom domain and custom pages
    • VPN, TOR, country and ASN blocking ship as a fraud shield
    • Up to 500 affiliates across ten tiers on the $9.99 plan

    Cons

    • Downloadable files stop at 100 MB on both paid plans and 10 MB free
    • Free accounts allow 50 products, 100 files and two team members
    • The pricing page prints a monthly rate next to no auto-renewal
  3. SellApp logoSellApp

    A like-for-like swap at a lower rate: 3% rather than 5%, custom domain linking on the free tier, and a longer gateway list covering Square, Apple Pay, Cash App and eight coins. The fee arrives as an invoice the following month, and 0% costs $199.99 a month.

    Pros

    • Three percent per sale against Shoppy’s five on the free tier
    • Custom domain linking is listed on the free Standard plan
    • Fifteen plus gateways, from Square and Apple Pay to Monero and Solana
    • Discord, Telegram, Slack and WhatsApp gating are first-party features

    Cons

    • The 3% is invoiced at the start of the following month rather than deducted
    • Zero percent requires the Advanced plan at $199.99 a month
    • Its terms say fees are non-refundable and accounts may end with or without cause

  4. Selly

    Aimed squarely at reseller and crypto shops. Payment addresses come from your own public key, sales below $9.99 carry nothing, and each plan includes fee-free revenue worth what it costs. That means paying $19.99 or $59.99 up front, with 2.5% starting once the allowance runs out.

    Pros

    • Crypto addresses derive from your own public key, so you keep the private keys
    • Sales under $9.99 are charged nothing at all
    • Starter includes about $800 of fee-free revenue a month
    • An embedded checkout pop-up and a custom domain are both included

    Cons

    • Above the allowance, every sale of $9.99 or more takes 2.5%
    • Plans cost $19.99 or $59.99 monthly, paid before you sell anything
    • The refund window is seven days and only if no order arrived

    Selly fee calculatorSelly alternatives

  5. Shoprocket

    Different shape, same delivery job. It is a checkout widget you embed in a site you already control, with licence keys emailed from a stock you upload and no cut taken on any plan. Starter is $29 a month, and both subscriptions and a custom domain wait for the $79 tier.

    Pros

    • Zero percent on all three plans, funded by the subscription alone
    • Pre-uploaded licence keys are emailed to the buyer automatically
    • A fourteen day trial runs without a card until you go live
    • Funds settle instantly into your own Stripe, PayPal or PayU

    Cons

    • Recurring products are absent from the $29 Starter plan, starting at $79
    • Your own domain also unlocks on that same $79 plan
    • The entry plan is $29 a month before a single order arrives

    Shoprocket alternatives

  6. SendOwl

    For a seller whose traffic arrives from a Discord, a forum or a mailing list rather than from browsing. Every feature is on every plan, nothing is taken per sale, and disputes cost nothing. The trade is a ceiling: $39 buys 5,000 orders and $10,000 of sales a year.

    Pros

    • No percentage on any tier and every feature on every tier
    • Nothing enters a SendOwl balance, so no hold and no minimum
    • A chargeback costs nothing and access is simply withdrawn

    Cons

    • Launch at $39 allows 5,000 orders and $10,000 of yearly sales
    • Passing a cap triggers an automatic upgrade instead of a warning
    • Extra bandwidth is billed at a dollar per gigabyte
    • Tax is calculated but never remitted, so filing stays yours

    SendOwl alternatives

  7. E-junkie

    The cheapest monthly bill in this list at $8, with no percentage on top and payments going to your own PayPal, Stripe or Authorize.Net. It is narrow: the entry plan holds ten products in 200 MB, and its help centre states the platform cannot process recurring payments.

    Pros

    • Eight dollars a month, with no percentage taken from any sale
    • Your own PayPal, Stripe or Authorize.Net receives the buyer’s payment
    • A fourteen day trial asks for no credit card

    Cons

    • The help centre states the system cannot handle periodic payments at all
    • Starter covers ten products and 200 MB of file storage
    • The shop sits on an e-junkie.com subdomain keyed to your client ID

    E-junkie alternatives

  8. Sellfy logoSellfy

    A tidier storefront than Shoppy with nothing taken per sale, which suits a seller who wants the shop itself to read as a business. Print-on-demand merchandise sells beside the files. The catch is a yearly revenue ceiling on every plan, $10,000 on the $39 Starter tier.

    Pros

    • Zero transaction fee on all three plans at any volume
    • Print-on-demand merchandise sits in the same storefront as the downloads
    • Starter accepts a product file as large as 10 GB
    • Payments reach your own Stripe or PayPal with no payout wait

    Cons

    • Every plan caps annual revenue, starting at $10,000 on $39 Starter
    • Past that ceiling each order carries 2% until you move up
    • The fourteen day trial cannot take payments, so nothing sells during it
    • Affiliates require the $79 Business plan, and only Stripe or PayPal connect

    Sellfy fee calculatorSellfy alternatives

  9. Payhip logoPayhip

    Honest about the fit: a mainstream storefront for ebooks, courses and memberships, not a serial and account shop. It earns its place because 5% on the free plan matches what Shoppy takes while adding remitted US sales tax and EU VAT, and no feature is locked behind a tier.

    Pros

    • Five percent on a free plan that withholds no features
    • US sales tax and EU VAT are collected and remitted on your behalf
    • Sales settle straight to your own processor rather than a balance

    Cons

    • Zero percent means the $99 Pro tier, and $29 Plus still charges two
    • The product model is ebooks, courses and memberships rather than serials
    • Thirteen processors are listed, but usually only PayPal plus one runs at once

    Payhip fee calculatorPayhip alternatives

  10. Whop logoWhop

    The outlier, and worth knowing if what you sold through Shoppy was really access. Whop runs a marketplace of its own, has no monthly plan at all, and charges per transaction: 2.7% plus 30 cents on a domestic card, with a 0.5% billing line added to that.

    Pros

    • Its own marketplace puts a listing in front of people already buying
    • No monthly plan and no setup fee, so quiet months cost nothing
    • Memberships and community access are the product rather than a bolt-on

    Cons

    • A domestic card sale costs 2.7% plus 30 cents before the extras
    • A 0.5% billing charge applies to every transaction on top
    • Chargebacks are $15 each and a crypto payout costs 5% plus $1

    Whop fee calculatorWhop alternatives

Every price above is computed from that platform's own published rates on its entry plan, which is the plan almost everyone is actually on. Where a charge applies only in certain cases, an international card or a payout, the row says so rather than adding it to the headline rate. To put your own prices through Shoppy's full stack, use the Shoppy fee calculator.

Frequently asked questions

Still stuck? Talk to us

The rate comes first and it is on the pricing page. Shoppy takes 5% of every sale on the plan almost everybody uses, and the only reduction available is a single percentage point, on a Business tier the page prices as $29 per month billed annually with no month-to-month figure beside it. Custom domains sit behind that same paywall, so a free shop advertises Shoppy’s address rather than yours, which is a strange place to leave the branding on a store meant to look like a business. The third reason is not ours to assert, so here is where it comes from: Trustpilot shows Shoppy Ecommerce Ltd. at a TrustScore of 1.4 out of 5 across 328 reviews, 83% of them one star, with recurring buyer complaints about sellers taking payment and not delivering. Technically Shoppy still does the job, delivering files, serials and API-generated goods automatically into your own PayPal, Stripe or wallet. The question a seller has to answer is what a buyer already thinks when that checkout loads. Run your own numbers through the Shoppy fee calculator.

Shoppy never holds the money: its own help content says payments go directly to the seller and that it does not hold or escrow them, so a platform failure cannot strand a balance. What a seller should weigh separately is buyer perception, since Trustpilot lists 328 reviews at 1.4 out of 5. Its terms also reserve the right to refuse service and terminate accounts at Shoppy’s sole discretion.

Shoppy takes 5% on the free plan and 4% on Business, so on the same order a platform charging nothing per sale is cheaper at any size. ByteSell publishes a free tier at 0%; what it gives up is room, at 500 MB of storage with no file over 50 MB. The Shoppy fee calculator prices your own catalogue against both.

The payment side moves easily, since your PayPal, Stripe and wallet addresses were always yours and never routed through Shoppy. Products, serial stock and coupons have to be recreated on the new platform. Shoppy publishes an API covering order and coupon resources, which is the practical route for a large catalogue.

No Shoppy-owned page describes recurring billing or membership role granting. Its Discord integration is order notifications, an alert when an order arrives or its status changes, rather than access granted on payment and removed when it lapses. SellApp, Whop and ByteSell all handle gated access natively.
