Frequently Asked Questions

What fees does Shopify charge per order?
Shopify charges a payment processing fee (Shopify Payments: 2% + $0.30 on Basic, 1.5% + $0.30 on Shopify, 0.85% + $0.30 on Advanced) plus a transaction fee if you use a third-party payment provider (2%, 1%, or 0.5% depending on plan). Using Shopify Payments waives the transaction fee.
Does Shopify charge a transaction fee if I use Shopify Payments?
No. If you use Shopify Payments as your payment processor, the additional transaction fee (2%/1%/0.5%) is waived. You only pay the Shopify Payments processing rate.
How much does Shopify cost per month?
Shopify plans (monthly billing) in 2025: Basic $39/month, Shopify $105/month, Advanced $399/month. Annual billing reduces these by approximately 25%. Verify current pricing at shopify.com/pricing.
Which Shopify plan is best for a small store?
For most new Shopify stores: start with Basic ($39/month). Upgrade to Shopify ($105/month) when your payment processing savings from the lower fee rate (1.5% vs 2%) exceed the $66/month plan difference — roughly when monthly revenue exceeds ~$13,000.
